Twisted Churro
After a two-year hiatus, Costco's Twisted Churros have returned to the food court. While they may not be the beloved straight churros from pre-pandemic days, fans are happy to have the sweet treat back on the menu. "I just had one two days ago and it was ... delicious," said one reviewer on Reddit. "Absolutely covered in cinnamon sugar. So much so that I felt bad about how much was falling through the table while I ate it."
Purchase the Twisted Churro at Costco for $1.49.
Kirkland Signature Pumpkin Pie
It doesn't quite feel like fall until stacks of nearly four-pound pumpkin pies start showing up at Costco. Around $6 for a 58-ounce pie is a major deal, not to mention a major dose of nostalgia. "Pumpkin pie has been my favorite since I was a little kid," said one Redditor who always looks forward to the Kirkland offering. "I'd give Costco an 8 out of 10. Crust is not great, but consistency and taste [are] miles ahead of any other commercially made pie."

Kirkland Signature Beef Chili
Who needs a calendar when you can watch Costco's seasonal items come and go? The Kirkland Signature Beef Chili is back for the season, pairing a cozy combination of beef and beans with a generous topping of shredded cheese. "I buy it for the value and make two batches of chili with it," notes one fan on Reddit. "I break up the big chucks of beef and add extra fixings to make it taste like what I would make from scratch."
Purchase Kirkland Signature Beef Chili at Costco for around $4 per pound.
Granny Smith Apples
Halloween decorations may have appeared in July, but Costco's seasonal produce is right on schedule — and it's apple season! Tart and firm Granny Smith apples (one of the best varieties for making apple pie) have returned to Costco and come in three-or-four-pound bags perfect for your seasonal baking. They happen to keep very well in the fridge, so you can grab some now and be ready whenever the snacking or pie-making mood strikes.
