Costco's 'Amazing' New Freezer Find Has Shoppers Going Wild
If you’re just now awakening from your holiday food coma, odds are you’ve resolved to make some changes in your diet for the better. Your goal might be to meal prep more often, or maybe you’re choosing to go entirely plant-based for the new year.
As simple as eating better may seem, choosing a healthier option often comes with its own unique set of challenges. Sometimes, there are hidden ingredients lurking in “better for you” products, and even worse than that, diet fads can have harmful and lasting side effects on our physical and mental health.
While it isn’t all bad, the most challenging part of watching what you eat is overcoming the impulse to try all the new cheesy, crispy offerings retailers are filling their shelves with. And bulk grocer Costco just dropped a Korean-inspired freezer find that might be worth circling back for. You know, just in case that kale salad doesn’t satiate your cravings for the day.

Costco-themed fan account @costcobuys spotted Crispy Potato Corn Dogs in the warehouse-style grocer’s freezer section, and the mere sight is enough to make you toss your diet to the side. If you haven’t seen videos of these viral cheese-stuffed corn dogs making the rounds on social media, allow me to paint a picture for you.

Melty, unctuous mozzarella cheese is covered in crispy breadcrumbs, covered with even crispier cubed potatoes, and the entire concoction is then deep fried and served on a stick. All you eagle-eyed fans out there may have noticed that there isn’t an actual hotdog in the center of this delicacy, and that means that if you’re switching to keto, you can enjoy at least one (maybe two) of these without feeling too guilty about it.
The cheesy, crispy snack was met with a wave of praise from fans, with the overall consensus being, “These are AMAZING.” Aside from being insanely good, each bag of eight corn dogs costs just $10.79. If you’re doing the math, that works out to only $1.37 each!
When it comes to how best to prepare the holy grail of corn dogs, shoppers say the air fryer is your best bet. One person even recommended amping up the flavor with “ketchup and mustard” or rolling them in sugar as a nod to the OG Korean delicacy.
However you choose to dress up the crispy potatoey treat, one thing you can guarantee is that it’s sure to be delicious. If you happen to be searching for a cheat day dessert to complement your cheesy corn dog (or just decided to eat more sweets this year), Costco’s newest food court addition is just the thing for you.
