Hot Dog And Soda
The Costco food court's hot dog and soda combo is a must-try after your check out. The meal rings in at just $1.50 for a quarter-pound hot dog and a 20-ounce soda.
Featuring an all-beef sausage in a soft bun, the hot dog can be topped with mustard, relish, ketchup, and chopped raw onions. You can pick your fountain soda and get a free refill.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
A two-liter bottle of Kirkland Signature’s Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil is about $20. The olives are cold pressed to extract
the oil, making it nutritional.
The smooth, mild oil has a hint of fruitiness and pepper that adds flavor without being overpowering. It comes in a plastic bottle with indentations
on the sides for easy handling.
Sausage And Beef Lasagna
The Kirkland Signature Sausage and Beef Lasagna is a must-buy. For under $20, you get two three-pound trays that feed six people each and are easy to cook.
The frozen lasagna contains USDA Choice ground beef, zesty Italian sausage, vine-ripened tomatoes, whole milk ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, caramelized onions, and red wine.
Rotisserie Chicken
The Kirkland Signature Seasoned Rotisserie Chickens cost $5 each. With crisp skin, the tender, juicy chickens can be enjoyed
on their own and in other dishes.
The birds are spit-roasted in-store and stocked hot on the deli shelves. After two hours, unsold chickens are swapped with new ones, ensuring shoppers always get fresh packages.
Parmigiano Reggiano
The Kirkland Signature Parmigiano Reggiano rings in at about two pounds per wedge and costs about $10.99 a pound. It's firm
yet crumbly, so it's easy to grate.
The cheese is authentic, top-notch Parmigiano Reggiano. It's made in Italy, where it's aged over 36 months, giving it that rich, nutty, umami flavor and crystallization.
