I hear you, but you are talking about a town of 10k ppl that also doesn’t have a huge high end product clientele.  Of course HEB isn’t throwing out their best in Ingleside.  I’d guess that one is along the lines of the one in Yoakum that’s basic everything only.  

Pleasanton has a badass HEB for being a small town.   But they built it during the Eagle Ford boom too.    I stopped there last time and tried their BBQ at Texas True and it wasn’t bad.

Marlin HEB.... a real treat.

Back in Texas visiting family and went to the HEB on Bunkerhill (Houston) the other day and their inventory on several items was low. Half the fresh fish case was empty, like pandemic type levels. Is this new or have they had supply issues for awhile?

I was there Monday and it was stocked full. Must have been a bad day?

Maybe caught them between stocking?  The one in HEB is usually full up.

I'm surprised there's ever food on the shelves there.

HEB west alabama was out of carrots tuesday 

[kevwun 15777]

The New Braunfels HEB is the the Mecca of HEB.  I swear to God the meat section there is bigger than our entire store.

I am also over the curbside carts taking up the whole aisle and refusing to move.

LOL!    Looking on Google street view, that store makes the HEB mentioned above in Ingleside look like a Plus store.   Poor thing doesn't look like it's been updated since the 1970's.

New Braunfels is like HEB's favorite "small city" in Texas.   They have the two Plus stores like the one you noted off I-35  which got a lot of buzz.  with the other one across I-35 from Bucees.   And the third store is past downtown on Hwy 46 and Loop 336 and it's not a Plus store, but it might as well be called one with the size and store layout almost being the same.

What the fuck is it with carrots right now?  At the North Lamar Central Market and the Burnet HEB, they've either had the 5lb bag or the small bags of baby carrots.

[PantsTent 2002]

Supposedly the California storms is creating carrot problems. Circle C had only a few small bags of matchstick carrots last weekend. 

[WBT 20564]

Yeah, I haven't seen the 1 lb bag of carrots at my HEB since before Christmas

[tx 3 putt 76928]

im making a pot of soup next week for the weather change, and damn I better have carrots !

[kevwun 15777]

They somehow always manage to have the expensive HEB organics 2 lbs bag.

Parsnips are better than carrots. Buy those.

It’s all part of HEBs master plan. Wake up sheeple

They stopped selling 1 lb bags over a year ago. It’s hard for HEB to piss me off, but that was a dick move.

[Hook1997 5354]

Was going to get a whole chicken to rotisserie in the air fryer today then I figured out on the app that a whole raw chicken was only .60 less then the rotisserie lemon pepper chicken.  No cooking for the win.  I’m guessing the cost of the rotisserie chickens will go up soon.  Also all the carrot talk has put creamy carrot soup on the menu to make next week.

Wasn't a fan either, as while I rarely need 1lb of carrots, I never need 2lbs.  Mine has the loosies though, and 3-4 is usually what I need anyway.

[Post Oak 20213]

I'm making pasta fagioli next week and couldn't get carrots either. Guess I'll try Walmart

 

[Al Czervik 1229]

Carrot talk not going away and Super Bowl Sunday is approaching. Read somewhere that more carrots are consumed on SBS than any other day of the year. Yes, HEB’s master plan.  

[WBT 20564]

Gotdamn carrot flu killing off the carrots

I think it's because the whole chickens are much larger than the rotisserie ones.  It's hard to find a whole chicken at HEB that's not 5 lbs or bigger.  I spoke too soon about the 2 lbs bag of carrots.  Our HEB was out of everything accept a few bags of baby carrots yesterday.

Look at the rest of that town. Landmark Falls hotel (first Hilton west of the Mississippi) falling apart. Street closed due to falling debris.

Honey, I found a way to shrink your ass.  You might get dizzy though...

[burntorangebongos 10710]

man, I'm glad I split Costco carrots with my friend and ended up with about 2 or so lbs. I'm digging my carrot windfall. Garlic buttered carrots are delish.  

[Deej 76766]

Costco rotisserie chickens are the only ones worth buying. 

[South Austin 52484]

Got a 2 lb bag of carrots at Central Market. Apologies to the old lady I steamrolled to get it.

I wondered why I never saw the 1lb bags anymore. The loosies always just taste better to me for some reason.

Got these for the dog. If I get super high enough, I just may try one.

They do carry the Tyson steak fingers which are legit. I’m pretty sure they are the exact ones served by every DQ knockoff in Texas.

[Shaddie 1651]

So on the best snack food thread they had a pic of jalapeño saltines. Bought some and some HEB pimento cheese.  
Gotdamn that is good snack. It’s been 20 years since I lived in HEB territory but damnit if they haven’t raised the stakes a 1000%.

When my dad was going through cancer treatment, my mom came home one afternoon and he asked to buy some more beef jerky. She didn't know what the hell he was talking about. Turned out he had eaten an entire container of Beggin' Strips. I like to think that killed him and not the cancer.

The jalapeno saltines are good with some ceviche.

Was he panting and screaming “It’s bacon!” and running all over the place?

[Deej 76766]

It wouldn't surprise me. 

[Texzilla58 4734]

Deej, did you tell him he ate a box of dog treats or dig you replenish his supply of beef jerky

[HenryJames 66048]

[Deej 76766]

The dogs let him know .
