Zulka Pure Cane Sugar – $9.07

Suja Organic Immunity Defense Shots – $17.01

• Suja Immunity Wellness Shots are ideal for helping support your immune health during cold and flu season. “I think they help. I usually get sick couple times during the winter bc of toddler germs and I only got sick once. And that was mainly bc I was traveling,” one shopper said.

Sauce ROK Korean Anchovy Broth Tablets – $17.99

• Some Costco locations have the Sauce ROK Korean Anchovy Broth Tablets ($17.99) back on shelves. “They’re a great price point for 120 tablets. The basic anchovy kelp stock is the basis for so many Korean and Japanese soups and stews by providing a depth of umami and subtle richness. These disappeared from my local Costco about two years ago but I’d snatch these up right away if I saw them again!” one shopper said.

Kirkland Signature Lobster Mac & Cheese – $7.93/lb

• Costco is now carrying Kirkland Signature Mac & Cheese ($6.99) in the ready foods section of the deli. “There’s shredded tail meat in the mac, with claw meat topping it….to anyone wondering. It will be selling thru Thanksgiving,” one shopper said.

Heritage Specialty Foods Seafood Gumbo – $17.40

• Heritage Specialty Foods Seafood Gumbo is a new product at Costco this season. “I have been trying to find this again. Completely lacking in protein, but great flavor. Add in some of the shrimp cocktail or andouille sausage and it was great for me. I get this might suck if you’re from NO, but I’ve been and have no complaints with the slight modifications,” one member shared.

Gourmet Salsa Queen Creamy Chipotle Dip – $9.99

• Costco shoppers are raving about the Gourmet Salsa Queen Creamy Chipotle Dip. “I tried this on my last visit to Costco and really liked it. I should’ve left it at that. I should not have put it in my cart. I can’t just eat one. It is so good,” one member said.

Kirkland Signature Apple Pie With Lattice Top – $14.79

• The lattice-topped Kirkland Signature Apple Pies are hitting shelves in the Costco bakery and members are thrilled. “Zap in the microwave for a 30 seconds and then top with vanilla ice cream ?,” one shopper suggested.

La Menorquina Mini Caramel Popcorn Ice Cream Sandwich –  $13.99

• Costco members love the La Menorquina Mini Caramel Popcorn Ice Cream Sandwiches. “They’re honestly not bad! I got a box a month ago, and apparently loved them so much I ate two, at separate times, while I was sleeping a week or two ago. The popcorn bits are just in the caramel coating exterior, and I didn’t snag a tooth or anything, and then the ice cream is just caramel flavored ice cream,” one shopper said.

Reese’s Miniature Candy Assortment – Price not specified
