Costco’s beloved candy deal with is again — however there’s a catch

They obtained it twisted.

Just hours in the past, Costco posted an Instagram video for its 2.5 million followers with a serious announcement: The huge field retailer‘s well-known — and far missed — churro will return to retailer menus for the primary time since 2024.

At first, followers rejoiced on the return of the prodigal pastry, which was changed by a Double Chocolate Chunk Cookie two years in the past.

“Best news all week!!!” added one other.

Alas, the thrill was candy however short-lived.

Shoppers quickly realized that Costco wasn’t resurrecting the unique “straight” churro, which was discontinued — to a lot on-line moaning — in 2020.

Some Costco crazies even twisted the twisted churro drop into an airing of grievances a la Festivus:

“We need the combo pizza back for good and the hand-dripped ice cream with almonds,” said an Instagram super-fan, referencing a discontinued dessert from 2013.

“No combo pizza, no care,” said another.

But there might be hope for the sad snackers, both online and in Costco’s 924 worldwide warehouses.

The supersize emporium recently announced it was opening 10 new U.S. stores and expanding in 9 states, with a goal to open 30 new locations annually in the coming years.

Surely, at least one of them will serve a straight-and-narrow churro at some point in the future.
