Be honest, how many times have you gone shopping with a list, only to later deviate? We all do it to a certain extent!
But what happened when the item on your list, that one product you’ve been buying from a store for months if not years, is suddenly gone from the shelves!? Panic ensues! Looking for suitable alternatives can take months, your household will never be the same…
But we all have to come to terms with the fact that sometimes, no matter how much we love a product, it might disappear forever. Costco shoppers know this all too well, which is why one piece of advice I can give you is to stock up on something you can’t live without before the warehouse club decides to remove it from its stock.
Today, let’s look at 9 such items that Costco decided to stop selling so that we can say a final farewell to our favorites…
Half-sheet Cakes
The half sheet cakes that Costco used to sell were a favorite among many shoppers. Whether you were celebrating a birthday, graduation, baby, or any other event, you knew the warehouse store had a delicious cake waiting for you at the bakery counter.
Nowadays, you could purchase 10-inch round cakes instead, which are still delicious, but we still miss those half-sheet cakes and we might need some time to get over this scrumptious loss.
Our next item is in the dog house…..
We wish you would have frozen yogurt as you once had. Our Costco
now only has ice cream. Yogurt is healthier. thank you. Anne
I do not like the powdered gravy mixes you have now–Do not compare to what you used to have!! Also would love those bran muffins you used to have. Our Costco–need Instant Nescafe clasico coffee. Otherwise love my store
Where is the great Cole Slaw you used to carry??
Where is the Decaffeinated Colombia Supremo coffee beans???
Please bring back the Skotidakis Jalapeño Yogurt Dip. Can’t find it anywhere.
Cage-Free Eggs. Did not understand that remark. I do not purchase cage free eggs – can’t afford them. You will continue to have eggs that are not cage-free?
No, they are saying they will only carry cage free eggs. No more caged eggs. They aren’t that much more.
If you look at conditions and maiming of cut off beaks to squash chickens into cages you’ll see it’s inhumane. Even cage free live enclosed in dark overcrowded deplorable conditions and look miserable, faces pecked off. Free range means they are outside and May possibly be able to move a little bit spread wings.
Kirkland decafe coffee has not been available for months. Are you bringing it back.
Great coffee blend have not been able to replace with anything like it.
Both my husband and I miss the Guava Nectar (Grown Right). It’s wonderful. We truely hope Costco will carry it again. Thanks,
Something OTHER than pepperoni or cheese pizza. Jesh bring back supreme.
PLEASE…. PLEASE …..bring back the 1/2 sheet cakes.
They were SO affordable and SO GOOD

We would like you to carry Jars of 4 Beans salad by Paisley Farms all year, not just summer time. Thankyou!
I hope that a “reacher” (to grab things off the floor) will be available to order on line. I have purchased about 6 from eBay, but they do not work as well as yours.
I hate they stopped selling the Kirkland Green Beans, there were the best.
Why can’t we buy turkey burgers at Costco??????
Three items I miss:
(1) Rothschilds Roasted Pineapple/Habanero Sauce.
(2) The bakery’s Blueberry Muffins are not like they used to be. The ones I bought about 2 months ago were seriously lacking in blueberries (one muffin actually contained only ONE blueberry) and the blueberries were totally tasteless. These are the muffins that are sold as two packs of 6 (totaling 12 muffins).
(3) This is an item from years ago, but I have never stopped thinking of how good they were: Martha Stewart’s Chicken Slab Pies (frozen).
AGREE about the muffins! I used to enjoy the pumpkin muffins and holiday muffins too. Last time I purchased muffins they sat on counter until mold came. Usually, when they are good they are gone. Same with the danish. Even at work event they sat and ended in trash. Sad! Why did they cheapen up their recipes? Now, I pass them by and say YUCK! Not buying anymore.
Bring back the seasoned pork medallions. Best ever.
WHAT….you won’t have the 1/2 sheet cakes any more????? We love your cakes!!! I’m surprised that our family alone, didn’t keep this yummy article in your store. We will miss it!
Still missing Rustic Tucson Seasoning
polish sausage.
The good news in our neighborhood is that there is a Sam’s Club right around the corner and what Costco doesn’t have, Sam’s usually does – and vice-versa. These two stores make each other better.
Oh NO!
You’ve got to be kidding!
1/2 sheet cake!
Been buying them for 30 years!!!!!!
They must sell terrifically!
Why would you stop selling such a popular item?
You must be crazy!!
If this is the new thinking, it SUCKS!!!!!!!
Very bad change!!!!
I hope the regular cans of Kirkland brand Albacore tuna is not being permanently discontinued!! Because of my arthritic hands I had to use pliers to pull the ring to open the can and once opened found mostly mushy tuna.
I agree with Sahra Hup about the 4 bean salad.
Kirkland
Where are the large boxes of Kirkland dog biscuits did you discontinue those I hope not
Bring back Kirkland Signature Mediterranean Blend oil.
C
Why don’t you carry carrot cake cupcakes anymore They were the best.
Stop all the big changes to this wonderful shopping place.
What happened to the Kirkland. Paper towels?
2 things I miss are the Bran Muffins and the Tyson’s sausage patties, we would buy the patties about every 3months and the muffins about once a month.
Really miss the 3-pack of loaf cakes sold at the holidays. They were the best and I always bought SEVERAL to keep in the freezer. PLEASE?
Bring back the double wedge of Danish Blue Cheese. Price and product were outstanding
WhAt happened to the gallon of MILO’S diet iced tea? Costco had the best buy on this & I am very thursty! Please bring it back!!!
What about more items for cats – you have plenty for dogs. And do you have to carry litter in those huge sizes – I can’t lift them
The sheet cakes were the best for decorating with a picture. One of the main reasons for having a membership since I purchased so many of them.
Why don’t you have more for cats? And do you have to kave litter in those huge sizes – I can’t lift them
Really miss the breakfast sausages that came in double packages also more choices of muffins and containers of large green grapes.
Please bring back the albacore tuna it was so good and affordable that it makes me sad if it’s gone.
Reed
Va.
Please bring back the organic Heinz catsup. Bought the organic catsup in the glass bottles…yuk! So gross.
Why don’t you see regular spaghetti noodles?? I am looking for angel hair pasta.
From the bakery, the rosemary/Parmesan bread!!! I still dream about it. What is the rationale behind discontinuing outstanding products? And with so much consumer feedback about g egg tying them back?
what happened to the turkey burgers- they aren’t in my store anymore?? thanks.
I will not buy any meat that is not guaranteed to be raised humanely! Any meat! And the seafood that is caught should be line-caught and dolphin safe.
Missing Sheppard’s Pie, chicken noodle soup, bean soup with chicken. Why only seasonal?
Will you bring back Hawaiian Chicken and 4-Bean Salad?
I used to be a member but can no longer purchase the 1/2 sheet cakes, Michigan tart cherry jelly, or coffee maker filters, etc.
Please bring back the little bite size rounds of Jack cheese. They were great for snacking during car rides and everybody liked them.
Locatelli brand Pecorino Romano cheese…have to go to BJs for it now….it is the BEST cheese.
Glad that Costco can be manipulated by the large the wealthy and “activitists”. seems like the prices and good choices are disappearing. That’s OK, Walmart , Sams ,BJ’s will gladly take care of us. Thanks also to Warren Buffet,he helped do away with Kirkland Batteries, or was this just a good business decision., for the owner’s.
Former 10 year member.
What happen to Banana muffins you used to keep. Was reason to discontinue the Banana muffins.
We are really missing the 4 pack of pizza rounds with yummy sauce packets. They were easy and delicious to make in my large toaster oven. Now, they only have cauliflower crusts, which are ok sometimes, but we like the regular ones better.
I also miss the jars of marinated mushrooms. They are low in calories and so yummy!
Love the full sized dungeness crabs, thank God they are back again
Bring back the combo pizza…………….PLEASE
Why doesn’t Costco sell the Lakanto Monk Fruit or any monk fruit anymore? Much better than what is there now. Also miss the 3 pack of french vanilla non-dairy creamer and bite-size crab cakes
miss the cranberry muffins they were soo good. also the pineapple habenero. sauce I have used it as a marinate also when cooking pork. The bean salad , why why why.
and you are a creep for getting behind that. its all going to change. no thanks to you
you used to have the best veal cutlets. please bring them back !!!!
Sounds great to me yogurt it is!
I’m disappointed when they stop carrying an item I really liked!
Love Safies pickled beets.
Please bring them back.
Always picked up the sesame covered bagels, just loved them. Very disappointed you don’t carry them any more.
