In a warehouse store like Costco, you can shop for just about anything that you can think of. Like—anything. Fine jewelry? Lawn furniture? Vegan food? Yep, yep, and yep!
As with so many restaurants and grocery stores, vegan options have become more and more accessible, and Costco is an important name on the list for widely available plant-based selections. One of the originals in the industry, it remains the leader in its field of membership warehouse club stores. And its reach is far and wide, so although each location’s inventory may vary, there’s no doubt that it will have you covered.
