Didn't know this was even possible.  Haven't been in a Kroger in Texas for like 20yrs, but the ones in Nashville are absolute ass. Just trashy af.

[Enchubben 5561]

these are awesome air fried. Very close to Chick-fil-A tenders.

As someone suffering from the lack of HEB's in Dallas, I've had to put up with Kroger for far too long. Also fuck Tom Thumb with their over-priced asses (even when you scan their discount "reward" card it's routinely more expensive than other grocers)

Those are good but don’t get the chicken thighs version for sliders. For some reason they have weird chewy texture that is quite off putting.

Went to H‑E‑B to buy meat for carne guisada. Stew meat was was $7.75 lb. Saw those New York strips on sale and it was Allan easy choice. Beef soup bone was $3.99 lb

I look for these "limited edition" chips whenever I go to my HEB but can never seem to find them.  Not that I'd try them...most seem like bad ideas.

Select? That's kinda expensive for dog food.

Apple pie chips seems like a real bad idea.  Don't cross the streams HEB.

Bullshit. Is it a steak you want to present as a perfect steak? One, it’s a perfect steak I would have bought for my in-laws because they ate them well done. Fuck handing them a fine prime cut. Here’s your $3 burned hunk of cow. While my bride and I can now afford prime steaks.

As posted, these are perfect for chopping into a stew, braising like a Swiss steak, grinding into burger meat for a number of things. And it’s certainly cheaper than the typical 93% lean stuff at $5+ a pound.

I scour the ads for specials every week as it’s still one of the loss leaders they use and Walmart and clubs don’t. I got 4 3lb Nolan Ryan Chuck roasts at Kroger last week at $3.27 a pound. Half of Costco or Sam’s. I’m loaded with venison, stocked up on pork loins and tenderloins on sale. Got 12 pounds of 16-21 jumbo gulf white shrimp in the freezer bought at like $7.99 LB.

It was cheaper than stew meat, that’s all I know 

[4th&Five 41704]

Stuffing ships taste like a strong sour cream and onion to me.

Their bulk peanut butter cups by the dried fruit and nuts are much better than Reese’s.   The only issue is they are a really soft chocolate, rather melts and it can get a bit messy while scooping the product out of the bin.

So it's not perfect?

[Tylerocks 2557]

Warning-  Their knock-off cheez it's are fucking terrible.  I don't know what I was thinking trying to skimp $1.50 and not get the real ones.

 

These, however, are fucking delicious.

just stopping in to say man do i miss HEB 😒 

i mean i knew i would but gotdamn does Safeway suck... and it's expensive as shit! the 'spice aisle' is like maybe six feet of shelf 😐 prepared foods are meh and their rotisserie chickens are horrible. King Sooper is even worse, trashy stores with half empty shelves.

coming back to Texas for a bit in a couple weeks... thank god we're driving so i can stock up!

i'll get used to it eventually i'm sure...but rn i really miss HEB, Enchiladas y Mas, and friends...probably in that order 😄

You will “get used to it” but there will be a hole in your heart, your stomach and your pantry 

[CooterBrown 18091]

H‑E‑B is supposed to eventually bring back their ship-to-home program that was suspended during COVID. Pretty much anything that’s shelf stable can be ordered.

[harpercollins 394]

I need H-E-B to bring back the electronic gift cards. I sometimes find myself without a credit card when I’m there and loved being able to use a poor man’s Apple Pay.

[TonyTexas 10571]

You DFW folks should be excited 

Quote

H-E-B, already a juggernaut in Houston, announced over the holiday weekend that it is finally expanding to the Dallas-Fort Worth area with a Sept. 21 opening in Frisco.

The supermarket will clock in at 111,000 square feet and includes a location of its popular True Texas BBQ restaurants, which Texas Monthly once named the best barbecue chain in the state. An extensive prepared food section, gas station, car wash, and drive-through pharmacy — all H-E-B trademarks — will be part of DFW’s first shop, located at 4800 Main Street.

Yea nothing to it. You can preheat and hit them with cooking spray it if you want them a bit crunchier, but I liked them as is.

My H‑E‑B on Bunker Hill in Houston has a car wash. And this might be the 1st store designed during Covid thus the drive thru pharmacy. Probably a staple moving forward.

Circle C HEB has drive thru pharmacy and has for years.  It's pretty convenient.

Dripping Springs has car wash.

[4th&Five 41704]

lakeway has a car wash too.  always a line.

As soon as I hit submit I thought of that one.

Regardless, there are hundreds of HEBs and only a handful with those features, so calling them trademarks seems a bit off to me.  Maybe the newer ones have them and HEB is making a point in their releases for branding purposes.

[Js1 85760]

Heights has a drive thru pharmacy.  No car wash.  I think the Bellaire one too, which was pre-COVID. 

[Hollywood 343]

Tortilla making machines are the only hallmark I need. 

[ztejas 43746]

Think WM Cannon and Brodie has a drive thru pharmacy. Also the one on 620 in round rock. 

[utee94 15883]

Volente has had a drive-thru pharmacy for as long as I've been using it, which is over ten years.

No car wash though.

An HEB car wash is pointless. As soon as you pull away in your clean car, the millions of grackles will just shit all over it.
