Costco revives its twisted churro snack in U.S. food courts for a short run
Costco announced that its twisted churro will return to U.S. food courts for a limited period, priced at $1.49.
Costco revealed that the twisted churro, a cinnamon-sugar dessert discontinued in 2024, will be back in its U.S. food courts for a limited time, costing $1.49 as before. The announcement came after a cryptic Instagram video sparked speculation among shoppers about a mystery menu item. Social media users largely guessed the churro correctly and celebrated the news, while a minority called for a permanent offering or lamented the absence of the older straight churro.
This return is part of a series of recent menu tweaks, including nationwide chicken tenders and a hot-dog-and-water combo, as Costco continues to test new items. Earlier attempts to appease fans with mini churro bites in a caramel sundae were deemed insufficient by many. The exact duration of the churro’s availability remains unclear.
