Costco Rolls Out New Seasonal Offerings for September
September marks a shift in seasons, and for Costco, that means fresh seasonal items hitting the shelves. As summer gives way to fall, shoppers can expect a lineup reflecting this change, focusing on not just desserts but also a variety of prepared and shelf-stable foods.
Costco fans are sharing their thoughts on the latest offerings from the store, which include a range of products sparking lively discussions among members. Below are some popular items making waves this season.
Kirkland Signature Chicken and Waffles
This dish, a Southern classic, is now available in Costco’s prepared food section across the country. According to their website, it features Grade A chicken thighs, organic maple syrup, all-butter Belgian waffles, and a drizzle of hot honey.
A Pennsylvania content creator, Jacqueline Devine, praised the meal as “delicious and a great value.” She suggested frying the chicken and toasting the waffles for the best experience, noting, “Hot honey gave me the sweet fever that I love.” This combo costs about $18 for enough to share—just $4.50 per portion.
Strawberry Null Reprotein Shake
With 30 grams of protein and only one gram of sugar, this shake is another notable addition. A 12-pack is priced around $22.69 depending on the location. Members of a popular Reddit group, R/Costco, expressed excitement about this new flavor, with one user from Nuri saying, “I’m so excited about the new flavor. I hope I like it!” Another tip shared was to drink it from a cup instead of directly from the can.
Dittmann Balsamic Vinegar Pearls
A new item has garnered attention: balsamic vinegar-flavored tapioca pearls. Some users compared these to bubble tea and jokingly referred to them as “vegetarian caviar.” Suggestions for use included pairing them with pizza or incorporating them into salads. One enthusiastic commenter mentioned adding them to crostini or even vanilla ice cream.
Kirkland Signature Caramel Apple Strudel Bites
Costco has launched smaller versions of the beloved Caramel Apple Strudel. A Redditor noted they appreciated the portion sizes, buying them as convenient desserts for work lunch. Another mentioned enjoying them with vanilla ice cream.
Kirkland Signature Chicken Pot Pie & Shepherd’s Pie
These two comfort food favorites are back in stock, generating excitement among members. Conversations on Reddit highlighted users alternating between the two, emphasizing how they often buy them when available. One member humorously noted, “Last year we planned ahead and bought extras to securely wrap in foil and freeze.” Their popularity remains strong as members eagerly anticipate their seasonal return.
Overall, it’s clear that Costco is keeping its shelves fresh and exciting as the seasons change, and the community is responding with enthusiasm and a bit of nostalgia. Whether it’s classic comfort foods or new innovations, shoppers seem ready to embrace the offerings this September.
