Had the Chicken bake when down in the US this past fall. Nothing great, bread is doughy and sauce inside wasn’t great. Churros as well weren’t anything to write home about.

Hot dog/polish sausage is still the go to. Besides the extreme value, IMO it tastes the best…and a proper sized and fresh bun to hot dog ratio. And, taste better then Orange Julius and New York Fries hot dogs.

Pizza is hit and miss, but certainly fills you up, again for cheap.

The cafeteria board at the Sarcee Costco still shows chicken wings available (as of yesterday)

Noticed that the rotisserie chickens are sold in bags / totes now. Probably a good idea for less waste, and also logistically makes better sense.

I forgot there were sandwiches too. Also combo pizza with more toppings. This pic is from the US so it has the bakes we don't have. Also the chicken caesar salad I seem to recall before in Canada.

Did you see the Hot Dog onion dispenser? So cool. It's kinda like a pasta maker, but spits out onions when you spin the handle.

I've only seen one of these at the Costco in Maui.

I remember having one of those chicken bakes and I don't think I've ever eaten at a Costco in the US so they must have had them in Canada at some point.

Now I want one.

They were a menu item at one in Canada. Not sure why they eliminated them as they were tasty.
