Viral Costco cookie blends childhood favorites into one: 'Out of this world'
Costco customers are going wild over an indulgent new cookie flavor that combines nostalgic flavors of childhood into one gooey and chewy dessert. Kirkland Signature Marshmallow Crispy Cookies hit the shelves earlier this month and have gone viral, with members racing to the wholesaler to grab the 24-count box of cookies, which cost $9.99 in stores. "To me, it's the perfect combo of a sugar cookie and a Rice Krispies Treat," Laura Lamb, the creator and owner of the Costco Hot Finds fan page, said in a TikTok video. "It's chewy but with a little crunch and just out of this world." "Just got these and they're AMAZING," one TiKToker commented on Lamb's video — which got over 2 million views on the social media platform. "This is enough to start my Costco membership back up," another said of the latest marshmallow twist. "I work in the bakery," another person commented. "They're SO good! At first, I was disappointed we didn't get s'mores back," she added, referring to another fan favorite. Some lamented there wasn't a 24-pack of their beloved white chocolate macadamia nut cookies, while others stood by Costco's tried-and-true chocolate chip variety. Others said they were a bit too sweet for their liking, while one man thought they'd be better with chocolate chips. "Initially, when I first saw them, I actually thought that too, but trust me, they do not," Lamb replied to him. Angela Ackerman, who runs the social media account Costco Guides, said she was hesitant about the new cookie option at first. "I didn't know what to expect, but these are so delicious," Ackerman said in a TikTok post. "They have a brown butter dough, marshmallows for chewiness and crispy rice cereal for a crunch for only $9.99. Grab them." Another TikTok user described them as if "a Rice Krispy treat and an oatmeal cookie had a baby." Hundreds of Costco lovers took to the Reddit forum dedicated to the big-box store to discuss the recent drop. Some suggested popping the baked goods into the microwave or air fryer for a few seconds. Overall, internet users were all for the trendy treat. "Bought these once and can never buy them again … They are too good," one person on Reddit said. "Straight into the top 4 best cookies of my life," another wrote. The marshmallow cookies join a grocery list of other Costco items released this summer, including the Kirkland Signature Peaches and Cream Bar Cake and the frozen strawberry lemonade.

Costco's Latest Deli Item Has Fans Seriously Scratching Their Heads—Shoppers Say It 'Tastes Awful'
With the arrival of the warmer months, potato salad is a dish you're sure to see at backyard barbeques, pool parties, picnics and other seasonal gatherings. Despite the immense popularity of this dish, a new type of potato salad available at Costco has dedicated shoppers seeing red. In a post shared on Instagram, Laura Lamb of @costcohotfinds shared with fans that she recently spotted Loaded Potato Salad in the warehouse's deli. Related: "There's a new Loaded Potato Salad in the Costco deli in a two-and-a-half pound container. It's made with Russet and roasted potatoes and topped with bacon crumbles and cheddar cheese. This one was creamy and delicious," she revealed in her video. To create that creamy base, both sour cream and mayonnaise is used for the Loaded Potato Salad. Although the zesty dish combines two fan-faves—loaded potato salad and mashed potatoes—many shoppers were left scratching their heads. Some were unsure of whether or not it should be eaten cold. Others were taken aback by the cheese on top remaining unmelted. "I putting that bad boy in the oven," said one Costco shopper-turned-potato salad rebel. "Not gonna melt the cheese?" another person asked. Related: Others were concerned about there being onions or other veggies in the potato salad. "Any veggies in it? Hate potato salad with veggies in it," one of them wrote. And then, there were the not-so-favorable reviews from those who have tried the new side dish. "We bought this and my husband hated it and he LOVES potato salad," read one comment. "This tastes awful. I don't recommend it. It tastes nothing like potato salad," said another critic. If you are willing to give the Loaded Potato Salad a shot, you can purchase it at Costco for $3.99 per pound.

If you're a fan of the NFL, you likely know that the highly-anticipated schedule release was made public last week. And now that you know who your favorite team will be playing (and hopefully defeating) this season, why not celebrate with some new team gear? For those in search of something a bit more exciting than your run-of-the-mill jersey or ball cap, you're in luck because Costco has something special for NFL fans. Related: According to a recent post from Laura Lamb of @costcohotfinds, the warehouse is now selling NFL glassware sets in wooden gift boxes. "Costco just brought out a super cool NFL woodbox drinkware set. I'm guessing each region will have their local teams, but I'm hoping that these show up online soon too. We grabbed last year's Detroit Lions set and it is beautiful," she shared in her video. In the comments section, one person pointed out that NFL Shop has every team, but the Costco set is a much better bargain at just $39.99. "NFL shop has all the teams available but they sell for $115! Insane," they wrote. Given that Lamb's video of the NFL drinkware included glassware featuring the Dallas Cowboys, the comments to her post were also met with plenty of messages for "America's Team." Related: "Don't buy the cowboys ones, you might choke," one person on Instagram commented. "Cowboys fans need all the alcohol to drown their sorrows," another user chimed in. And then, there was this question: "Can you get any with a good team on them?" Regardless of your team allegiance this season, will you be picking up a drinkware set of your own for Game Day?
