You can get regular or the 1/4 pound Beef Dinner Franks.

I love Costco. Great place for microfiber towels, and it's the only place I can get a slice of pizza and a soda for $3.

Gotta disagree with you on that one, Costco churros were waaaaay too cake like, not crispy like a proper churro should be; you certainly got a lot of it for the price though.

The roast beef sandwich sucked. I'm glad they got rid of it. The cookie is not a good replacement for the churros.

I'm in the Bring Back the Polish Dog and Combo pizza camp; the chicken bake is the only good remaining item.

Has anybody tried the burger where it was offered?

Yes! Also bring back the Italian sausage sandwich. And the little plastic cup of sauerkraut for the hot dogs.

Burger? I never saw a burger offered at any Costco location near me.
The food court at the Altamonte Springs FL location was closed for a couple weeks for refurb. It is outside the store, so anybody can walk up, but after the refurb, you have to show Costco membership ID in order to buy anything. Used to be that anybody could use the food court, with or without Costco membership.

Before I retired Costco hotdogs and pizza were a weekly staple in the office. The chief came down from Sacto. to our office once as four of us were leaving for Costco. He asked where we were off to and we told him. He couldn’t believe it as he had never had one of their hot dogs. Never the less, he declined the offer to accompany us. .
I used to get a dog and a slice of the combo pizza. If I was feeling hungry, I’d top it off with a churro. Unfortunately, post Covid, they discontinued the combo pizza and just recently D/Ced the churro.

A few months ago, the local Costcos stopped giving onions for the hotdogs. A staff member told me folks were coming in with ziplock bags and cranking out all of the onions and taking them home. I remarked to my wife last week when we were getting a dog that we needed to start bringing our own onions in the future.

Oh, and my granddaughter loves the cheese pizza.

Our Costco has the onions at the pick up counter in small individual plastic containers

These were discontinued a few weeks ago at the local Costco, when the food court re-opened after being refurbished.

No onions, no sauerkraut, hot dogs are just not the same without those. Frown

Like all Costco's, not all locations are created equal.
The burger was probably offered in specific locations, same also with the imitation-meat salad, the beef chili bowl, hot turkey sando and the dipped ice cream bar. Easy way to market research an idea before offering it on the shelves.

One of these days, I want to check out the Costco's in France, Japan and S.Korea. Friend said the French Costco's have chicken tenders w/fries, fish n'chips and Belgian Waffles. S.Korea instead of chicken bake has a bulgogi bake Eek

Several years ago we were in Munich and made a trip to the local Wal-Mart for some trip supplies, 4 couples on the trip, we found they had free beer samples all through the store several kiosks from different vendors.

It was fantastic...
