(Update: Review below)

Stop everything. This is it.
The Costco Logo t-shirts are here (link to the product page). They are also available in black.

4 years ago (2022), they had Kirkland Signature logo t-shirts for $14.99. I bought two of them and they sold out fast. Now they are $11.99 each. This time, I ordered three, and one for my friend.

They will sell out fast, trust me. Your size will disappear first. And you’ll have to wait another few years for them to come back. I am still waiting for a good looking Costco hoodie.

I would really like a stylish suede or leather jacket with a Costco logo on it. But. that’s unlikely.

If you are a Costco fan like I am, get this shirt and wear it at your Costco shopping. Life is fun that way

Good times.

Update (added April 13). I have received three shirts. They are adorable, and I will wear them on my next Costco shopping trip.

As I stated, Kirkland Signature T-shirts from 4 years ago were $14.99 each. The current shirts are $11.99 each. These shirts are cheaper because they’re made from thinner material. As a side effect, they can be see-through. When I wore them, my nipples were visible. Not a great look for a grown man. So, I’ll either wear something under or over the shirt. With that, I’m happy with my three shirts.

As an alternative, I could wear black shirts. Black shirts look hip and trendy. But that’s not me. I like the white ones better. White shirts look more legit, nerdy, and hardcore. It screams “Costco fan.”

Food Review: Intergalactic Onion Moonions

The First Bite

Crispy. Sweet. Tangy. Lemon-y? This feels like an “elevated” or adult-version of our favorite childhood snack – the all mighty funyun!

What Makes It Special

What makes it special to me is that it has an addicting citrus flavor that is quite hard to pin point. That zing of acid breaks up the mundane and allows for addicting and continuous snacking.

The Downside

The downside is that if you’re looking for a funyun…this ain’t it. The lemon notes of this moonion is a departure from a funyun. If you’re looking for a one to one comparison…this ain’t it.

The Verdict

Picking this up on a whim, I am genuinely surprised at how enjoyable it is. I don’t believe it will be a Costco staple like the Doritos but if you want to take a departure from the ordinary, then take this bite-sized crunchy ring for a spin!

The First Bite

Bite? More like inhale. I deeply enjoy snacks of all shapes and sizes but skinny pop popcorn hits that sweet spot of being something one can binge without the pang of guilt that comes shortly after…

What Makes It Special

What makes it special to me is that this is a big box of individually portioned bags of popcorn. This makes portion-control, handing it out to the kiddos, or even stashing in the office something very viable and convenient!

The Downside

The downside is the “skinny” part does stand out against some of its competitors. Calories are flavor points and the lack of calories come with the drawback of a lack of some of that punchy flavor that comes from its more full-bodied counterparts.

The Verdict

Right now, Costco has this box of popcorn at a slight discount. It’s at a 23.5% discount from now till the next coupon cycle so get it while you can!

The First Bite

Salty. Sweet. Perfection! I am not a fan of the traditional pretzel or even pretzel buns but these hit the nail on the head when it comes to a crunchy bite that is reminiscent of Gardetto’s…iykyk.

What Makes It Special

What makes it special to me is that I am NOT a fan of pretzels. I would choose a thousand and one other shopping mall food court snacks before settling on a pretzel. But, these small bites keeps one coming back for more!

The Downside

I couldn’t find these again during my last run so that was a bummer because I would have a bought another bag! Also, the hint of sweetness on the backend can be a bit different than traditional snacks. It’s like an onion kind of sweet. Fan of onions rejoice!

The Verdict

Buy it to try it! These snacks are great and I would buy 2 or 3 bags if given the chance again. These snacks were also discovered on a flight…hmm…

The First Bite

Cocoa in full force! I love the way the quinoa is bound together in a thin shell of chocolate that lends itself to a light and airy bite.

What Makes It Special

The sea salt counters the slightly sweet taste of the chocolate. This mixture is a match made in heaven and deserve a second or third bite!

The Downside

NONE! These little quinoa morsels are delectable and the slight downside is to my wallet when I bought 2 bags in 1 go!

The Verdict

My first memory of these were on an airplane. The airplane snack foods to Costco pipeline needs to be investigated but once I found a bag of these on the shelves, I simply had to grab two! If you want a fun snack that goes well with some morning coffee or afternoon tea, then I suggest you give these a try.

In awe of the bounty

I still remember the first time I stepped into Costco with adult eyes. The bounty. The sheer volume of stuff. Rows and rows of items that reach from the ground to the high heavens. The excess brings my heart so much joy. Families and friends walking down each row examining the new items and each others’ carts. Costco is truly an amazing place.

It is this time of the year that I try my best to remind myself of the privileges that I have been given – being born in the U.S., access to public education, and in relatively good health. Although Costco can be a place of sheer gluttony and the pinnacle of consumerism, I believe that it can also be used for good. Got a spare roll or two of TP? Picked up an extra chicken? Got a spare croissant…or 10?

When buying in bulk, especially during this time of thanks and giving, I encourage myself and everyone that lends their eyeballs to this post to think about your family and neighbors. If you’re going on a run anyways, could your neighbor with the newborn use some extra diapers? Could you split your frozen chicken breast with the bodybuilder down the hall? God knows that you can’t or shouldn’t eat the pumpkin pie all by yourself.

So with all the gratitude and love in my heart, I am thankful to you readers, my family, friends, and Costco this Thanksgiving season. Check in on those around you and I wish you all a wonderful, safe, and bountiful Thanksgiving.

Cheers,

Matt
