Costco’s twisted churro is returning to U.S. food courts for a reported $1.49 each, and October’s warehouse finds include quick breakfasts, dinner shortcuts and seasonal sweets. The churro run is limited-time, with no end date announced; rollout timing and warehouse stock vary by location, so check locally before making a special trip.
The products and prices below are reported October snapshots, not guaranteed local inventory or current checkout prices. Several finds are limited to select regions or warehouses.
The food-court comeback: a twisted churro for $1.49
Costco’s returning churro is the twisted version, which may look different from the straight churro some customers remember. Quartz reported that Costco announced the return on Instagram on September 18, 2026, at $1.49 each for U.S. food courts. The run is described as limited-time, but Costco had not announced an end date. Warehouse rollout timing differs, so the reported price and return do not guarantee that a local food court has it yet. Quartz’s report and MySA’s coverage both describe the warm cinnamon-sugar item.
Cozy breakfasts and quick morning options
Sunshine Buns frozen cinnamon rolls
Parade reports a 10-serving package for $14.99 and says the rolls are microwave-ready in 45 seconds. The roundup describes them as available nationwide. That is a reported listing, not a guarantee of stock at every warehouse; check the package for preparation directions and nutrition details.

How to use October product roundups without assuming local stock
These ten grocery and food-court picks come from October reporting, not a live inventory feed. Parade’s October 3 roundup notes that prices and availability vary, and Tasting Table’s September 30 roundup likewise says its prices are as of publication and may vary by location. Its additional seasonal examples include pumpkin pie, beef chili, Granny Smith apples, cherry berry sourdough, Halloween candy, Noosa fall yogurt and cinnamon bites; cookware in that roundup is outside this grocery-focused list. See Parade’s October 2026 finds and Tasting Table’s October product roundup.
Quick Recap
- For a specific regional find: call or check with the local warehouse before traveling, especially for the Los Angeles-area dumplings, four-state bagel minis or California-concentrated nuggets.
- For a reported price: treat it as a snapshot from the roundup, not a promise of the price at checkout.
- For preparation or nutrition details: use the current package label, since reported product details may not reflect every package or update.
Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date/time indicated and are subject to change. Any price and availability information displayed on Amazon at the time of purchase will apply.
