Instagram account Costco Hot Finds posted a video of the new quesadillas, and they certainly looked delicious. However, viewers could see upon pausing the video that the quesadilla meal retailed for $16.05 — for many, the price was too much.
“That price is unjustified,” one person commented on the video. Someone else referred to it as, “literally the worst deal at Costco,” while another user wrote that it, “is a lot for [a] quesadilla.” It turns out the Instagram users aren’t the only ones who think Costco is overcharging for the new quesadillas. The Costco Food Database blog wrote, “all of the ingredients can be purchased from Costco and the quesadillas can be assembled at a fraction of the cost.”
Costco’s quesadillas are quite large, and Costco Hot Finds said they were actually able to get two meals out of it. With that said, if it’s a quesadilla for two, the $16 price tag might not be so bad — $8 per person seems fairly standard. However, the price could be a bit jarring for a product made from chicken, cheese, and tortillas.
