Costco is known for its great value and unique offerings. If you’re part of this members-only club, you have access to incredible deals and signature products. Looking for the best Costco products to try? Here are ten of Costco’s customer favorite items.

1. Chicken Bake

Costco’s chicken bakehas become a fan favorite over the years. The savory meal consists of a hand-rolled crust stuffed with chicken breast strips, mozzarella, provolone, parmesan, smoky bacon, Caesar dressing, and green onions. The bakes are individually wrapped and microwavable for convenience.

2. Three Berry Blend Frozen Fruit

For smoothie lovers, Kirkland’s Three Berry Blend FrozenFruit is a must-have. This 4lb affordable bag contains raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries, the ideal blend for any frozen drink or smoothie bowl. Additionally, it’s a good source of both vitamin C and fiber. 

3. Rotisserie Chicken

Costco’s rotisserie chicken is another affordable and convenient item. Sold for only $4.99, the precooked bird is perfect to add to prepped meals or as a base for family dinners. In fact, a common Costco life hack is to use rotisserie chicken for meal prep. Many love the freshness and savory taste of Costco’s rotisserie chickens. However, the members-only club has received some backlash recently as it changed the packaging of its chickens, which are now sold in bags. While Costco’s intention was to reduce waste, customers claim the bag easily rips or leaks.

4. Milk Chocolate Almonds

Another favorite Costco snack is the Kirkland Signature Peanut Butter Filled Pretzel Nuggets. Like the milk chocolate almonds, this popular item is both sweet and salty, catering to a wide audience. The outer pretzel shell is salted to perfection, and the inner peanut butter nugget practically melts in your mouth.
