[Ipg-smz] What are some healthy foods at Costco?

[Mark Brownstein]

If you believe that eggs are healthy (and I have no problem believing 
this), they've got Organic Cage Free extra large for about $3.20 a dozen 
(in two dozen packages) and large, cage free eggs, two dozen for, if I 
recall correctly, about $3.69.

They have a number of generic OTC items -- 81 mg enteric coated aspirin 
for less than a penny each, generic Mucinex, generic Prevacid, generic 
Benadryl, generic NSAIDs (yeah, I know, these aren't exactly healthy 
items - but the prices are good). They probably have organic items 
scattered through their freezers and refrigerators, and some ready to 
heat/ready to eat in the other refrigerated area of the store.

But if you're not planning to go to Costco with your friend, many of my 
recommendations are probably of little value. You can check the Costco 
website (www.costco.com) and maybe find some products of interest. A lot 
of them are available at the warehouse. Some may be available, shipped, 
to non-members, and others may be members only pricing (but you may be 
able to get some items shipped if your friend orders them or you somehow 
get access to a membership number). Some items may be available at the 
warehouse, and cost less because you won't pay for shipping (it's often 
included in online prices), but it may be a lot easier to get them 
shipped than it is to wander through the store, fighting the people at 
the endcaps having lunch, and waiting in line to check out.
