Spring is in full swing and summer is just around the corner. That’s bringing a whole slew of changes to our lives, but being Sporked‘s resident Costco correspondent means I’m always looking at things through a Costco-colored lens. How exactly is Costco getting us ready for the changing seasons? We’ll get into the details, but they’re stocking a lot of snacks. Snacks to cool you down when it’s hot outside. Snacks to give you an excuse to throw a party now that you can leave the house and not be blasted with arctic air. A whole lot of snacks that will surely help you have a heck of a good time in these coming months. Here’s what’s new at Costco this week.

Deebee’s Organic Superfruit Freezie Pops Variety Pack
Stock up before school lets out and chaos ensues! As someone with very limited freezer space, what I love best about Deebee’s freezie pops is that you can store them out of the freezer until you’re ready to indulge (with a bit of lead time to let them fully freeze, of course). In this variety pack from Costco you get strawberry lemon, mango orange, and blueberry pomegranate freezie pops—a little something for everyone or lots of somethings just for you.
La Terra Fina Pineapple Habanero Dip & Spread
Winter is over and it’s time to start planning outdoor gatherings with friends again! Keep that appetizer table tasty with a honkin’ tub of La Terra Fina’s Pineapple Habanero Dip & Spread from Costco. Pair it with a bag of Stacy’s pita chips and we bet you won’t even have to worry about leftovers.
Twix Bits
I still haven’t recovered from the loss of Butterfinger BB’s. Twix is a close second in my ranking of candies, though, so this version just may fill the void. Twix took their iconic cookie base, rolled it into spheres, and covered those with a caramel chocolate coating. Great news: Costco’s now selling a big ole’ bag of these new candies. They’re no Butterfinger BB’s, but maybe Twix Bits will scratch that sweet-and-crunchy itch all the same.
Nature Valley Crispy Creamy Wafer Bars Variety Pack
Hey look, a new variety pack of blueberry and strawberry wafer bars to grab from Costco! Just in time for a summer full of day camp lunch boxes that need to be packed in a hurry. Throw these in for a healthy dessert or something to snack on before lunch, which always inexplicably takes place at 10:30 a.m. Why do kids put up with that?
Tony’s Chocolonely Tiny Tony’s Variety Pack
Snackable chocolate coins that come individually wrapped so you can dig in anytime and anywhere. This variety pack from Costco comes with three flavors: milk chocolate, milk chocolate caramel sea salt, and milk chocolate pretzel toffee. One with a little sweet, one with a lotta sweet, and one with a little salty-sweet to satiate any craving.
