The 18 Best Korean Grocery Items at Costco

Image
Costco has long been a staple for my family since the Northridge, California location near us in the late 1990s. I loved accompanying my parents to the store — my dad would split off and stare at big TVs in the electronics aisles, while my mom and I would scavenge for  free samples , picking up flats of softball-sized  blueberry muffins and  Danishes along the way. For our Korean American family, Costco was the perfect place to indulge in the sheer Americanness of it all: big,  cheap , and super accessible.

If you make a trip to Costco , is it possible to only pick up the necessities you originally set out to acquire? The thing is, 9 times out of 10, the answer is no. It takes a truly disciplined shopper to ignore the wall to wall deals and exceptional products available at Costco, and unless you need to stick to a strict budget , you’ll be faced with countless items you never knew you needed. For those who have a membership with the popular bulk warehouse club, upgrading your kitchen this year is easier than ever. Just last week, we found an amazingly large butcher block available for $60 and a wonderfully elegant 16-piece dinnerware set that only cost $50. And with the holiday season already in full effect, who wouldn’t benefit from an affordable new set of kitchen tools?

I love Christmas songs! I’m not ashamed to say it. I’m that person that starts listening to holiday music in September and I don’t stop until after the new year. Everyone's Christmas playlist probably includes classics like Andy Williams ’ “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year” and Eartha Kitt ’s “Santa Baby” to more contemporary classics like Wham ’s “Last Christmas” and Mariah Carey ’s “All I Want For Christmas,” but sometimes I feel the need to revitalize my playlist with some new-ish tunes. Here are some fresh newer Christmas songs to recharge your Christmas music playlist. For this list, we considered songs released in the last few years as "new." JIMMY FALLON & MEGHAN TRAINOR "Wrap Me Up" Jimmy Fallon and Meghan Trainor? Count me in.

Jamie Foxx Breaks Silence on 'Malicious' Lawsuit

Jamie Foxx has broken his silence following the filing of a sexual assault lawsuit against him. For those who may've missed the report, a woman identified  in the suit as Jane Doe, alleged that Foxx assaulted her at the Catch NYC rooftop lounge in August 2015. The woman claimed that Foxx groped her against her will in a secluded corner of the lounge. "The alleged incident never happened," a spokesperson for Foxx said in a statement to Parade .
