Costco Cheeseburger Combo kicks McD's Big Mac's Butt

Costco's new meal deal: $5.99 Cheeseburger with lots of fries and a 20 oz drink beats McD's Big Mac Meal, or any other fast food combo by a long shot.

Unfortunately, I ate it all too fast before I could take a picture, half because I was starving and half because it was actually really delicious. Costco's famous thick cut, crispy fries are one of the best I've tried, because a) you can actually taste the potatoes and feel the texture and b) you can get a huge bowl for only $2.19, or something.

Now add a big, juicy burger to it and you've got a double bonus combo. Inside a pair of warm burger buns lies the standard tomatoe slice, lettuce leaf, a slice of processed cheese, and a half inch, 1/2 pound grilled Angus beef pattie that is meaty, juic juicy and completely satisfying. You can top it off with as much onion, relish, pickled radish, jalapeno, ketchup and mustard as you like at the self-serve station. Don't forget you also have the 20 oz soft drink to quench your thirst from downing all the fries and meat. Since it's also a self-serve station, you can always get more watered-down pop if needed.

Overall, if I were to get a fast-food combo, Costco would be the top choice any day.

  2. Yeah I know, the cheese curds taste so good with the fries, their gravy's not bad either. Also can't beat the price!
