Benji I was at my Costco in NJ yesterday and they had big packs of lumpia and my daughter and I loved to watch Mama and her lumpia. I had to buy it. Can’t wait to try them. No match for Mama’s I know. I miss her too.
Hi Leah Babeeee!!💋💋 I miss watching YOU and Mama, on Mama's UA-cam channel.🙏 Mama would've been so proud of you with your sweetness, charming personality and a very smart girl. 💞
That chilli onion crisp oil is so good if my costco ever gets that my hubby will be so happy lol. I like the idea of getting the smaller bottles cause it will remain fresher than having one large bottle for longer!❤
Random but I just went to Japan and you guys were my unofficial tour guides lol. I knew a bit of Japanese from you guys saying good morning and oishi 😂
It's not a Costco, but there's a store called Resco Food Service in the LA area that is often referred to as the Asian Costco, stocked full of Asian produce & products.
Since the old plantation days in Hawaii a lot of Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and Portuguese immigrants came to work on the farms. Since then, brining there influence of food to Hawaii changed the local food ways. The biggest by far is Japanese influence, that’s where Hawaii gets the melting pot of rice in plate lunches, poke bowls with sushi rice…the list goes on. Not to get it mixed with Hawaiian food (that’s its own category) but what we call “local Food” is mostly Asian inspired. So our stores always have Asian foods.
I don't know why but your total always seems so good. I saw your friend Matt going to Costco vide o and he got way less items and the total came out to 200 something too.
That Chinese Sausage is used a lot in Vietnamese cooking. We use it in a rice dish we called Soy. We also use it in steamed buns that we call Bun Bao. Benji you really need to try more Vietnamese dishes. Not just Pho.
In some LA and OC county stores there are tons of asian items. I live in LA county but my local store just have a few things compared to costcos with more heavily concentrated asian communities.
Yes @BenjiTravis you can use the beef for your sinigang and you can try Beef Nilaga too... try to cook it and it's good option especially during cold months it's like a hug from a loved one....
Hi Benji! I thought you would appreciate this hack. If your kids like Costco chocolate chip cookies you can go to bakery section and ask for frozen cookies.
To be fair, maybe Benji is not just well informed or traveled in Thailand. He’s an American maybe he’s only seen pad thai in their supermarkets, he’s genuinely curious.
In Asia
😆
Hahahah🤣
no wayyy :o
For beef nilaga/bulaló, we use beef shank and having the bone marrow there makes it even more hearty 🤗.
My favorite vlogs are your Costco ones with the kids!!
Our Costco in Richmond,BC 🇨🇦has a lot of Asian food since there is a large Asian population here. They have your poutine too
5:33 you also use it on eggs fried rice Chinese pork sausage.
Benji! They still have onions you just have to ask for them when u pick up the food. They have them in little containers to go 🥰👌
Good to know! Thank you
Benji you haaaave to try the carbonara buldok noodles. I would die to see you make that and review it!!!
Costco at Northridge CA, we have Korean, Chinese, and Filipino products so as Hawaiian products
I’m confused.. why would Thailand not have Pad Thai lol
Guess Benji didn't know Pad Thai is a national dish of Thailand. It is a staple food in Thai cuisine.
Lol, I work in the food court in Az and we have onions, they probably just ran out. Ask again next time you order
sausage - to eat plain (fried w a little oil - sliced) with side of rice, and also fried rice with (lightly seasoned fried rice)
Benji I was at my Costco in NJ yesterday and they had big packs of lumpia and my daughter and I loved to watch Mama and her lumpia. I had to buy it. Can’t wait to try them. No match for Mama’s I know. I miss her too.
Benjie, chinese style sausage is a staple in filipino dishes. You are right it can be put in pancit.
You can also put it for cooking fried rice.
Hi Leah Babeeee!!💋💋 I miss watching YOU and Mama, on Mama's UA-cam channel.🙏 Mama would've been so proud of you with your sweetness, charming personality and a very smart girl. 💞
Asian sausage is good in fried rice. Those are my childhood. Just fried them up and eat it with rice and soy sauce
"Just say no to the fake kewpie" should be on a shirt lol!

I was just snacking on those Costco pizza crips- so yummy! Go get them Benji lol
That chilli onion crisp oil is so good if my costco ever gets that my hubby will be so happy lol. I like the idea of getting the smaller bottles cause it will remain fresher than having one large bottle for longer!❤

Would love to visit a Hawaiian Costco
Pad Thai is one of the most popular street food in Thailand, I'm happy to see Thai food in your vdo
Costco headquarters in Issaquah has a fresh sushi section like Hawaii. Not the best sushi, but definitely better than the grocery store selections.

We have Buldak and Udon over here but found in 7/11 and Walmart stores, we also have Pocky among other known names.
Love you guys thank you for taking us on the Costco shopping trip 😊
Use the Chinese sausage for fried rice it’s so good
If I'm not mistaken, those sample servers are sent out from an agency and are not Costco hires. But they are very courteous.
The rice porridge is yummy and the udon noodle bowls are yummy too! FYI
I’ll try it

Trader Joe's has the squiggly noodles. Not sure if they are seasonal or not, but they released them last year sometime.

That Chinese Sausage is used a lot in Vietnamese cooking. We use it in a rice dish we called Soy. We also use it in steamed buns that we call Bun Bao. Benji you really need to try more Vietnamese dishes. Not just Pho.

I’m surprised Benji has never heard of Buldak/fire noodles!
Honolulu, Hawaii😋 Our Costco in Iwilei is the busiest Costco in the U.S. 🌺🌺
Benji this may sound like a crazy question but where do you keep all that onion at in refrig or out ?
Yes @BenjiTravis you can use the beef for your sinigang and you can try Beef Nilaga too... try to cook it and it's good option especially during cold months it's like a hug from a loved one....
Benji go to Winco for meats. I work for Winco and I know you’d like our meat section prices for sure 👍🏻
Hawaii...
I think the costco stores in NYC and LA/SF have the most asian items.
NYC. Ok!
The one in Queens NY….
@@rororororouserthe BJ’s in flushing has more Asian items than the one in the Bronx
I think here in WA, the most Asian Costco would be Redmond and Issaquah.
Sorry Benji but the moment Leah gave a thumbs up, my brain made the thumbs up sound which Judy has in her vlogs.
Hi Benji! I thought you would appreciate this hack.
If your kids like Costco chocolate chip cookies you can go to bakery section and ask for frozen cookies.
How do you store onions like that?
Pad Thai is a dish of Thailand
GA Costco has mostly all asian/a lot of korean stuffs
i've seen Thailand vlogs of people eating pad thai there!!
I heard the onions for your hot dog are available if you ask at the counter.
Honolulu - Hawaii 😎
Benji try avocado with condensed milk and ice, filipino dessert!
Benji Have you tried Tonkotsu Ramen from Costco?
Tonkotsu Ramen is the best
I recommend ramen for you try
Here in Hawaii, we have a ton of Asian options!! We also have the busiest Costco in the US 🤩
Benji do you like pho?! You should try making the beef broth from scratch 😊
your little girl is so cute! lol i like how she doesn't like anything but the chicken bake.
My husband & I always mistakenly call it " Killer Daves " bread!
Richmond BC, t and t, Costco, Superstore, Foodie World! All in Richmond

Which Costco are you at? In SoCal - it depends on the city where there is a huge Asian population.

Did you buy anything to taste test/review?
Not because of Costco but definitely went and searched for different fruit because of your fruit video!!
Where is this Costco Warehouse
Sure showing a lot of Costco runs. But I like the items. Tell me what your Costco has from mine here
Benji Can you ask your Mom to teach us how to make Homemade Sour Dough Bread Please???
Better still, please invite your Mom to be a guest on your show to demonstrate how it's made.
His Mom doesn’t want to show her face that’s why we never see her
so much love from Germany
Love from 🇺🇸
I ❤️ Costco! 🫶🫶🫶
I'm watching Benji's videos to improve my English skills.🤣
When you go back to Ph you should try cassava chips
What are u even saying? Of course there is Pad thai in Thailand, it's their legendary stree food, omg.
To be fair, maybe Benji is not just well informed or traveled in Thailand. He’s an American maybe he’s only seen pad thai in their supermarkets, he’s genuinely curious.
That Costco has a lot more Asian stuff than ours in puyallup
I wish my Costco was a bit more diverse. I’ve seen very few Asian items.
They’re supposed to carry more sushi options soon.
Can never get enough of Costco 😂
seems only like yesterday when we are all waiting for little mama (Leah) to talk...now we all be like "don't grow up too fast baby" 😢
Hello from thailand
Benji, go get those A-Sha Meteor noodles next time. They are so good, you won't regret it, and they're actually vegan!
Buyer beware Aussie bites are so good highly addictive but expensive makes me want to make my own. Too lazy. 🎉
I saw Benji in person in the Philippines during their Meet and Greet at SM Aura and the first thing i noticed was his "magandang kutis". 😊
