That is so cool @KeithF6250! How far upstate? I'm on Long Island or Orange County. I never though to ask for special pricing at a fast food restaurant.
Utica, actually suburban Utica. From my house it's about a 7 minute drive to downtown or a 10 minute walk to a sheep pasture. We're about 25 miles from the geographic center of the state and about an equal distance from Chobani Yogurt headquarters.

Utica is about 2.5 hours downstate from me. Thanks on the tip for reduced pricing...0 -

I have a hard time finding full fat yogurt in my neck o' the woods. Everyone has loads of 2% and nonfat. I think I'm going to request they carry it.0

Something strange huh
My wife's washing machine is acting strange. A few months ago it was constantly shrinking all my clothes, now the stupid thing is stretching the heck out of my stuff.0 -

Like taco seasoning! I always figured it was low enough to not count, until I read the ingredients. The first ingredient listed is wheat flour!
Depends on brand. I found some Mexican (taco) seasoning that was titled in Spanish, and it had no wheat, though it did have corn flour. But yes, my fiance's favorite Taco Bell brand seasoning has wheat first! Personally, I find it much simpler to make my own taco seasoning (tons of recipes out there, to taste!) and just take the carb hit based on the seasoning (the recipe we really like has decent bit of onion powder), but honestly, I eat it in reasonable portions with sour cream, cheese, and sometimes avocado, so it's pretty low carb naturally, as I don't use fillers or sweeteners at all.0 -

@wheatlessgirl66 Definitely! My local shop has special ordered xantham gum for me, and now Sweetleaf sweetener! They've been great about it, and they always have the best meat deals anywhere in town, so I hit them for special items, meat, and veg - but cheese and heavy cream and coconut oil, I got to the WM or wherever I find the best deal. I need to see if my local carries my favorite brand of coconut oil, now that I think of it.
Personal advice is to have a friend scan in some barcodes for you and email them to you so you can print them out. My local shop can scan in the barcode and see it if is a item their supplier carries already so it doesn't end up being special order... They actually see me coming now and just know to get ready!0 -

You and your wife have your own washing machines? I assume you wash her clothes in yours0
