Where can I buy bulk food other than Sams/Costco?

[Kaido]

Is there some place that sells boxes of supplies instead of just bulk packs, that sells to home buyers? I use a lot of the same basic stuff in my recipes (canned tuna and chicken, mustard/mayo/ketchup, etc.) and I like specific brands, so I don't just want bulk Dharma products 😉

SYSCO.

Just so I can get an idea how much bulk do you want can you compare the food you want to the size of auto parts?

 

[mundane]

I was going to suggest Smart & Final, but much of their bulk merchandise is generic brand.

I have a restaurant supply store near me and a relative with one, I'll check that out, thanks.

Yeah done that, even have a Prime membership, but it's about the same as Costco.

How much? Unless your buying alternator sized, it's not bulk.

Wait, OP, you already had a restaurant supply store near you and a relative with a business license but needed Naustical's suggestion for the light to go in your head? 😕 :shocked:

I haven't been there, but I've heard it's more on the tool supply side - spices, utensils, cooking tools, etc.

50 - 100 cans of canned tuna, for example.

Good luck. If you want it in the little can the grocery store is the better place to go.

Bulk wholesalers are going to want to sell you pre-mixed tuna in large, 10 gallon buckets.

I bought one of those once through my boss (I work in a kitchen)

Man I was sick of tuna at the end of that month.

Amazon Grocery. I don't even think they sell single packs of things.

Keep in mind that with a restaurant supply, you may see prices similar or higher depending on what you already pay because they might carry higher quality products than you can get in the supermarket.

Of course, some will carry the bulk institutional products too. The nice part about a restaurant supply is the access to better ingredients, though.

Ok, so, a gallon every other day? It will go bad before you eat it all.
