Default What is your favorite thing to buy at Costco?

I’m looking for some healthy choices at Costco, and maybe some that are not so healthy
What are your favorite items to buy there?
Thanks for any input.

Are the salmon burgers in the fresh meat/seafood section or the frozen foods area?

Why not just write Then a slice of pepperoni and a Mountain Dew?

MD is a Pepsi product. Not a coke in any way.

Might be a regional thing... Most places call it soda, where I'm from they call it pop and when I lived in TX everything was a Coke - what kind of Coke do you drink....

You are evidently not from a part of the country where "coke" is a generic term.

I see like Kleenex, but definitely more confusing if you don't use that colloquialism

Frozen, they come in a ten pack. Throw them straight from the freezer onto the grill. It’s best to cook them on a lower setting so they thaw/cook at the same time.

I have a Sam's Club membership and like their steaks. If you shop at both Costco and Sam's, compare steak quality.

Kirklands cauliflower crust frozen pizza, Motor City pepperoni pizza, Kirklands New Zealand butter, Kirklands Smores cluster candy. Their meat chili is excellent, but it is seasonal, and no, it's not as good as your homemade, but pretty close and a lot less work.
