## Resource

Costco just dropped chicken strips in the food court for $6.99 — five big breaded pieces with a zesty honey mustard sauce, packing 1,640 calories. It’s pricier than their iconic hot dog but fans are calling it a game-changer, especially if Costco ever adds a drive-thru. While some love the value and bold flavor, others find them too salty or dry — echoing past debates like the churro-to-cookie swap. This move proves Costco’s never done with surprising shoppers.
