Why The Food Court Fountain Drinks Are Bothering Costco Shoppers
BY EIBHLIS GALE-COLEMAN
When it comes to prices and varied stock, Costco does a lot right. However, shoppers have one bone to pick, and that's over the food court fountain drinks.
It seems there are concerns over the syrup balance. According to an unhappy Reddit user, "The flavor ratio tastes like when normal machines are slightly out of syrup."
The Costco machine setup doesn’t have a custom syrup-to-water ratio. If that isn't enough, there's additional criticism over the choice to omit Coke options in favor of Pepsi.
The food court fountain drinks may have negative feedback, but at just $0.69 with a refill included, the 20-ounce sodas remain a good deal despite the controversy.
