Costco’s Secret Switch

🍦🤫 COSTCO’S SECRET SWITCH 😮

Did you know Costco stopped selling their fan favorite food court chocolate ice cream?! 🤯 Instead, they’ve switched gears and are going after the McDonald’s Shamrock shake crowd, specifically the Oreo Shamrock McFlurry folks. It’s a shocking and IMO, a risky move they didn’t really advertise. Mint isn’t as universally loved as chocolate, but ‘tis the season 🌈☘️ Will the Luck O’ The Irish be with Costco? Or should this be left to Mickey D’s? 🤔

Costco now only offers two flavors- vanilla ice cream and mint ice cream (no more chocolate). Costco’s mint flavored ice cream is a copy cat of McDonald’s signature mint flavor that gives us the infamous Oreo shamrock McFlurry. Even better, Costco is offering a new mint chocolate sundae that seems to be a dupe of McDonald’s Oreo Shamrock McFlurry.

$4-6 (prices vary)

 

Costco’s Double Chocolate Mint Sunday

$3 (requires membership)

 

 

I had to see for myself how the two compare! Both Costco’s mint sundae and McDonald’s Shamrock Oreo McFlurry are 12 ounces, despite how they may look. Sundae, McFlurry… both places are offering pretty much the same thing!

 

In terms of taste, the McFlurry is giving more of a thin mint cookie vibe while Costco’s sundae is creamier and gives more of an ice cream feel. Costco’s mint flavor isn’t as strong!

 

I’m a huge fan of Costco, and I have to say their double chocolate mint sundae is a pretty good dupe. However, McDonald’s is a WINNER for me! Costco… bring your chocolate ice cream back!
