Costco shoppers rave about the Spicy Ahi Poke. “Poke. Both the Spicy and Wasabi poke. Everyone here loves it,” one member said. “The poke went well with some sushi rice, shoyu, and sesame oil. Cost is definitely high, but probably worth it for one or two more purchases,” another commented.

The Kirkland Signature Mac and Cheese is huge and great value for money. “Their Mac and cheese is surprisingly good if you need to feed a crowd,” one customer said. “For holidays, I take 4 containers of the Mac and cheese, add about 15 diced fresh jalapeños, and a couple cups of the bacon bits. Put in crockpot for 2-4 hours on low and it’s a feast,” another recommended.

The Kirkland Signature Mediterranean Orzo Pasta Salad is a fan-favorite deli meal. “The Mediterranean orzo with pepperoni was really good! Tried it for the first time and it had 10x more toppings than the Trader Joe’s version so I’ll be buying that instead as a quick lunch or side with dinner,” one happy shopper said.
