I have never had calamari salad before so I didn't really know what to expect when I tried this calamari salad from Costco.

I liked the sweet taste of the calamari, and the calamari had a nice, soft and chewy texture. The combination of vegetables like the mushrooms, red peppers, and lettuce stems created a good crunch. The overall salad had a sweet, vinegar-y and ginger-y taste, and it was good, but I would have preferred less ginger.

REVIEW – Costco Food Court: Slice of Pepperoni Pizza

Pepperoni Pizza from Costco Food Court

The pepperoni pizza from the Costco food court is pretty good. It is a little oily on top of the pizza, but both the pizza crust and pepperoni slices are nice and crispy. The pizza sauce is more salty than sweet (which I like), and the pizza doesn't have an overwhelming amount of sauce or cheese. The slice you get is also pretty big... it often has a hard time fitting on the plate!

REVIEW – Foster Farms Tequila Lime Wings from Costco

I decided to try the frozen Foster Farms Tequila Lime Chicken Wings from Costco as a quick, microwavable food to have on hand. They were pretty easy to warm up - the directions state to microwave 8 wings on high for 7-9 minutes from frozen (basically 1 minute per chicken wing), so I microwaved 6 wings for 6 minutes.

The Tequila Lime Chicken Wings tasted pretty good. They had a faint citrus lime taste, but the dominant flavor is a savory, almost peppery taste. I have never had tequila, but maybe the pepper taste is from the tequila? The chicken wings were also a little bit sticky from the glaze, but not super sticky like honey BBQ wings, and they also weren't super saucy like buffalo wings.

Overall, it's a nicely balanced chicken snack.
