This snack is worth the Cost-co.
Costco is often known as ground zero for affordable bulk groceries, but which shades reign supreme?
As a service to snackers, coupon aggregator site CouponBirds has ranked the department store’s 50 most beloved snacks, based on customer data and reviews.
Most popular were Utah Truffles’ Dark Chocolate Sea Salt Truffle, which earned five stars in 91.99% of consumer reviews — the highest rating in the country. The “decadent” treat costs $36.99 for two 16-ounce packages online.
Costco shoppers seemed to be extremely fond of chocolate, as the next two foods on the missing Mount Rushmore also contained cocoa.
In second place in the snack pack were Godiva Dark Chocolate Ganache Hearts (91.75%), followed by Nutella & Gos Hazelnut & Cocoa Spread (90.88%) in third place.
To come up with the most coveted conclusions, the site analyzed 145,533 customer reviews of every snack listed on the retail juggernaut’s website since June 2024.
They then ranked the articles based on which they had the highest percentage of five-star reviews, making sure to remove articles with fewer than 100 reviews.
Rounding out the top five were Kirkland Signature Pecan halves (90.73%) and G2G Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Bar (90.57%).
The Kirkland product ranked as Costco’s most popular product in the “nut or seed” category, while the latter’s G2G bar was voted the chain’s most popular snack bar, according to the survey.
Meanwhile, Lotus Biscoff Cookies are Costco’s most popular cookies (88.04%) and Cheetos Crunchy are Costco’s most popular potato chips (86.00%).
Interestingly, Costco fans weren’t into actual chips as exactly zero brands of this ubiquitous treat made the cut.
Also fascinating was the fact that shoppers seemed to prefer international snack brands over domestically produced American ones, according to the survey.
For example, among Costco’s most popular cookies, Belgium’s Lotus Biscoff stands as the top choice, beating out America’s widely popular Oreos. [in 50th place]explained Andy Cooper, a financial analyst and money-saving expert with CouponBirds, according to Food & Wine magazine.
It was interesting to see a good mix of products on the list, ranging from well-known brand names to Costcos private label offerings, Cooper added.
