Best Costco Buys for Foodies This April

These tangy spiced peanuts are the perfect addition to your snack night or charcuterie boards. They’re kosher (like any respectable pickle snack!), non-GMO and come in a family-sized 2kg bag. Beyond just a snack, you can sprinkle them on top of your bowls or salads for an additional crunchy element to your dish.

Dietary restrictions be damned! These individually-wrapped candies are vegan, fair trade, gluten-free and non-GMO. They’re made with three ingredients and contain just three grams of sugar (!!!), so you can enjoy a chocolate fix without the sugar rush.

One of those essential kitchen tools every home cook should own, these multipurpose kitchen and crafting shears come in a four-pack so they can be used for all your household needs. Whether you’re snipping herbs, opening packages or cutting meat, these shears feature an ergonomic handle and are heavy-duty enough to handle all your culinary needs.

Do your part this Earth Day by doing away with single-use plastic and investing in this 14-pack of reusable storage bags. You can trust their leak-proof design to transport any of your snacks without a spill. The adorable lemon or orange designs are oh-so-cute, and they’re both microwave- and dishwasher-safe.

Another snacking favourite with an unexpected flavour twist, these salty and sweet pretzels are covered in naturally-flavoured strawberry yogurt. We love a pink snack that looks just as good as it tastes!

If you’re a fan of Frank’s RedHot Sauce, you’ll love this sweet and slightly fiery condiment. Made with garlic and Thai red chilli peppers, it goes well on sandwiches or as a dip with fries, veggies or nuggets. We’d rank this a 1.5/5 on the heat scale, so don’t be intimidated to dip right in!

Add crunch and sweetness to your favourite recipes with the ultimate Canadian topping, organic maple flakes. Try them on cereal, oatmeal or overnight oats or sprinkle them on your freshly-baked treats like cookies, blondies and bars.

Solve the age-old problem of soggy salads with this clever glass lunch box container that allows you to separate the different elements of your meal. Beyond salads, it’s great for noodles, curries, or any other hot meals (and it’s microwave safe!). A silicon seal helps lock in saucy dishes and it comes fully equipped with a reusable fork and a small container that’s perfect for sauces and toppings.

Make the switch to an eco-friendly dish and hand soap this earth month. This four-pack of citrus-scented liquid comes in a highly-concentrated formula (meaning less plastic) that’s non-toxic and septic-safe. Fill up your favourite reusable dispenser for a stylish and eco-friendly kitchen swap.

Pack in the protein with these unique baked protein treats from Restaurant: Impossible host Chef Robert Irvine. A soft-baked cookie is topped with a triple helping of peanuts: peanut butter, crunchy peanuts and a chocolate peanut butter coating. Each bar contains just three grams of sugar and 16 grams of protein for a Food Network chef-approved snack.
