9 New Costco Items Worth Grabbing Before Summer Officially Starts
One of the many things to love about Costco is that the big-box chain always has room for a bevy of new items. And, as summer approaches, there's an emphasis on new products that will keep you hydrated, make it much easier to entertain in your backyard or bring your favorite snacks to the beach, and so much more. So, the next time you run into Costco to grab a delicious $4.99 rotisserie chicken for dinner or the new beverage that tastes just like Starbucks' Pink Drink, you should take a moment to check out some of the newer items. Here are Costco's newest food (and food-adjacent) finds to check out on your next grocery run.

These viral chocolate bars, which are filled with pistachio butter and kataifi—strands of shredded phyllo dough—are rich and downright delicious. With three filled bars to a pack, there's plenty of chocolate to go around, whether you want to give them as gifts or enjoy them for yourself. Why buy sugar-packed sodas for summer when you can snag some better-for-you Olipop at Costco? These bubbly beverages are touted for probiotic benefits that can lead to better digestive health, and they just so happen to taste good, too. In this variety pack, which you can now snag at Costco, you'll be treated to 15 drinks in total—five cans each of Cream Soda, Classic Grape, and Classic Root Beer. If you haven't tried Olipop yet but want to give it a whirl, this is a great place to start. Consumers love the Dash brand because it produces useful kitchen appliances for a fraction of the price, and this Chef Series Air Fryer Oven is no exception. While this model has been available for purchase via the Dash website and other retailers, Costco members can buy one for around $60 less. Reviewers love that this countertop appliance can be used to air fry, toast, bake, broil, and more, meaning it can whip up everything from homemade banana bread to a rotisserie chicken. As temperatures rise it's important to stay hydrated, especially if you lead an active lifestyle. And while water is one of the most hydrating beverages you can drink, some people just don't enjoy it. Now, you can make hydration fun with these DripDrop Hydration sticks, which are now available in a 40-pack at your neighborhood Costco. Each stick contains flavored electrolyte drink mixes that (when mixed with water) will hydrate you quickly. There's also added nutrition via magnesium, B vitamins, zinc, and more. 'So happy DripDrop is finally available at Costco!,' one excited shopper declared. 'These electrolyte sticks are the best tasting ones, and have zero sugar. I use these regularly since I get migraines and can't seem to drink enough water to stay hydrated with my busy life.' Related: This $3 Aldi Snack Was Named 'Product of the Year' by 40,000 Shoppers While smoked oysters may not be on your shopping list, we're here to tell you that they should be, especially since you can now purchase an 8-can pack at Costco. The iron-packed oysters are harvested from the waters of the Pacific Northwest and naturally smoked over hardwood to deliver an unmistakable flavor. Enjoy 'em straight out of the tin, paired with cheese and crackers, or tossed in a bowl of lemony pasta this summer. Plus, since these oysters come in a can, they'll stay fresh for approximately three years. Step up your summer cocktail game with this infuser that can infuse spirits, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages with pretty much whatever you like. It has built-in strainers to filter out any seeds or leaves, and can hold up to 40 ounces at once. To use it, simply place fruit, herbs, or botanicals in the glass vessel, add your choice of beverage, and let the ingredients steep. We see strawberry mojitos and jalapeño margaritas in your future! Get a head start on your summer entertaining checklist with this Artstyle Paper Plate & Napkin Bundle. Said bundle includes 50 10-inch paper plates, 50 7-inch paper plates, and 100 three-ply napkins, and each piece is adorned with a colorful mandala design that works for any occasion. The plates are also microwave-safe and cut-resistant, meaning they can handle BBQ favorites like burgers, grilled steak, and more. Costco has plenty of snacks to choose from, including a new Kit Kat variety pack that's now on warehouse shelves. Inside each bag is 100 snack-size Kit Kats in three distinct flavors—milk chocolate, vanilla, and cotton candy, which just so happens to be pale blue. Stick one of these in your kid's lunch, or your own, or stash the bag in the pantry for days when you want just a little sweet treat.

Before you load up the car, however, it's worth taking a trip to your local Costco and checking out the two-pack of Titan Arctic Zone Fridges, which are officially back in stock for summer. Each pack comes with two ice walls and a four-piece leak-proof food container set, meaning your work lunch, beach snacks, or Memorial Day picnic essentials will stay cold (like, really cold) for up to 12 hours. The ice walls—essentially two sheets of ice that cool the food from the bottom and side—ensure that even milk, cheese, and fresh fruit will stay cold for hours. It's no surprise this Costco find has dozens of five-star reviews. 'We buy these lunch boxes every year. Because there are two zipper pockets for the freezer packs, the lunch stays cold all day,' one reviewer shared. 'Uneaten yogurts don't go bad, and you can make your kid turn leftovers from lunch into their afternoon snack. No waste!' Read the original article on Real Simple

New milk vending machine with special edition flavours comes to Lake District
A NEW milk vending machine has been installed at a petrol station in the Lake District. The Ann Forshaw's Milk Shed, launched at the SPAR Derwent store on Keswick's Penrith Road, will see milk delivered daily from Alston Dairy at Longridge, near Preston, the home of the Ann Forshaw's brand. SPAR Derwent is the second Cumbrian SPAR store to launch a Milk Shed after SPAR Milnthorpe in November last year. It dispenses pasteurised and non-homogenised fresh milk in 500ml or one litre servings, priced at £1 and £1.60 respectively. Milkshakes are also available at £1.80 for a 500ml size or £2.80 for a one litre serving. They are in five flavours of chocolate, strawberry, banana, vanilla, and salted caramel. A sixth limited edition milkshake flavour will also be on rotation. READ MORE: Red velvet will be the special flavour for the week running to Valentine's Day, and special edition glass bottles with love hearts on them will be available to purchase from the machine. February half term will also see a showcase of retro throwback flavours, and these include Cream Soda, Parma Violet, Cola, Lime, Candy Floss, and Mixed Berry. Fiona Drummond, company stores director at James Hall & Co. Ltd, owner of SPAR Derwent, said: 'Wherever we launch an Ann Forshaw's Milk Shed, our SPAR customers love the concept, and we have high hopes that our latest launch will be lapped up by the community in Keswick. 'We are also rapidly rolling out Milk Sheds across Cumbria as we believe that the concept and the products are right for the market. We are very excited to launch Milk Sheds at our company-owned SPAR stores in Bowness, Maryport, and Whitehaven soon to bring a point of difference to our offer. 'There is nothing not to like about the product. The milk is competitively priced, and the milkshakes are a delicious treat and suitable for all ages with the conscious decision to utilise natural flavourings," she said.
