Yahoo Lifestyle Costco's Ultra 'Delicious' New Treat Has Shoppers Saying They 'Wish I Would Have Grabbed 2 Bags'
There are few combos in the world better than peanut butter and jelly. Rich, creamy, slightly salty peanut butter juxtaposed by sweet, fruity jelly or jam sandwiched between two pieces of bread—it's truly a match made in heaven. It’s one of the first flavors we’re introduced to as kids, and it’s a duo that follows us well into adulthood.
Not only is it relatively cheap to make, but it’s also endlessly customizable to meet your unique, constantly changing flavor preferences. Whether you like your peanut butter a little chunky or prefer apple jelly over strawberry, the options are truly endless.

It’s this endless customizability that makes crafting new takes on the tried and true flavor combo a source of constant inspiration for chefs and home cooks alike. You can layer yours with marshmallow fluff or add in bananas, slip in a few slices of bacon or riff on the flavor combo by turning it into pancakes. There’s even a subsect of the foodie community that believes you can make a savory PB&J, although that's debatable.
Fortunately, if you’re more of a tried and true peanut butter and jelly purist, but would rather enjoy yours in snack form, Costco has a new treat inspired by the winning flavor combo, and @costcodeals is sharing all the deets.

Sizable 1-pound, 8-ounce bags of Orchard Valley Harvest PB&J Snack Mix started popping up on shelves this week, and shoppers say they wish they “would have grabbed two bags.” The snack mix inspired by the iconic duo is made up of a mixture of crispy peanut butter coated peanuts and dried sweetened strawberries coated in a jam-flavored ruby cacao. The mix is also made without any artificial flavors or colors, allowing the true flavors of the ingredients to shine.
Beyond its nostalgia-inducing taste, you can also feel good about your purchase knowing that 1-percent of Orchard Valley Harvest’s sales goes towards funding organizations that are working to tackle child hunger across the U.S. A true win-win if you ask me.
For just $9.99 a bag, we can see why shoppers are saying, “They are delicious!” The only downside is that you’ll only find these at Costco’s in the midwest for now, but you can always make Channing Tatum’s version of a PB&J to hold you over in the meantime.
