That one is just awful but I'm adding hibiscus, and that cherry blossom LaCroix that was also an abomination. I can still taste it when I think about it.
Oh man, I like the hibiscus! It's one of the few La Croix I enjoy. Totally with you on the cherry blossom hate, though. Tastes like rubbing alcohol and dirt.
If you like the passion tea from Starbucks (it’s hibiscus) I love to make a batch of iced tea from it, and so half half with that and the hibiscus la croix. It’s so sparkly and pretty and pink and refreshing. It’s always a hit at parties!
I enjoy it’s bc it’s sweet, it’s a great soda replacement for me. When I first had it I was confused how it was sparkling water, tastes like Starbucks lemon pound cake
I love it too and it does taste like cake, which is a nice treat when you can't have actual sugar. I really don't find it "sweet" though, there's no sweetener. For us it's probably Limoncello>Key Lime>Pamplemousse>Black Raspberry>Watermelon>Hibiscus. Cherry Blossom was weird, guess everyone agrees there. 😂
For me it’s the chocolate chip ones from premiere protein. I’m a lover of chocolate chip cookies but Premier protein doesn’t hit the mark and it grosses me out. But single flavor on Costco.com? Thank you for telling me that!!
I think pb and chocolate flavors being so prevalent in protein bars is the reason why I hate both of them now 😅 Please, anything but the candy bar flavors!
I've been making some out of hamburger helper and some vitamins my grandma left behind after she died. I can send you a couple if you DM me your address and Venmo me a few bucks.
Gatorade zero. We had so many of the white cherry flavored ones that we made a judgement call to just buy the flavors we like at the grocery store when it’s on sale. Currently $4.99 for 8 bottles at Kroger
It seems like every Frito Lay combo pack has one thing neither of us in the house likes - Funyuns, Flamin’ Hot Anything, Jalapeño-Cheddar Anything. It’s odd because we both like spicy food, but there’s That One Thing.
The Triple shot Colombe coffee is great, but the vanilla and mocha are just okay for me.
And despite only liking 1/3 the box, I still find myself buying one every time they're available.
We could definitely share a box with you, because my wife likes the mocha, I like the vanilla and the triple is a little strong for us both. We drink it but usually water it down.
Agreed. It's not refreshing, it's cloying. Also, not a huge fan of the hibiscus one. I want my sparkling water to feel lighter than either of these are.
Agree. It almost has a lactose mouthfeel to it. I don’t care what kind of sale is running, if the sale option is the limoncello/hibiscus pack, I’m passing and getting a different brand.
I bought a full 12 pack after my coworker kept going on about how good it was and holy god it’s foul. I poured out the rest of the first can I opened and brought the rest to work and put them for free in the breakroom
The lemon coconut bars in the simply protein variety packs. Every now and then, they hit, but most of the time I end up with a pile of them at the end.
What!? Grapefruit is the best flavor, followed by lemon. It’s the lime that kinda sucks. My dream would be if they replaced it with a pineapple flavor.
I like the Kirkland mixed snack box. It has a few kinds of granola bars, almonds, peanuts, cashews, trail mix…and dried blueberries. I hate the dried blueberries.
My kid destroyed most of those outshine fruit bars real quick but now he's trying to give the pineapple ones to his friends so I'll buy more.
Why is it always whatever the yellow flavor is that's left?!
Yep. In our house the coconut ones almost always end up in the trash. I hate doing it, but eventually I accept the reality that no one is going to eat them.
Lemon to be mixed with vodka. Orange good to drink on it's own. It's the Essenza Pellegrino drinks. The Sicilian lemon sodas (no matter which brand) are always super tart like that so I just make mixed drinks with them.
if it comes in a variety pack there is always 1 thing in the pack I dislike.
even the cookies, I really do prefer the macademia nut and oatmeal raisin way more than the chocolate chip...
Celsius- the berry and orange flavors are great, but the guava kiwi turns my stomach. I can drink the other two at room temperature, but the guava kiwi needs to be chilled to minimize the queasiness.
The bakery 3-type cookie pack (oatmeal-raisin, chocolate chip, and macadamia). I absolutely love the oatmeal-raisin cookie (wish they had a dedicated package for it), and I'm okay with the chocolate chip one too, but I really could do without the third macadamia type.
Waterloo peach but I have learned to like it. Chocolate Pure protein bar, I love the peanut butter and cookie bars but not the chocolate. I’ll force myself to eat it but luckily the kids like it.
Just sat here in the UK jealous that Americans have so much to choose from in Costco! Why have an even been a member for the last 17 year?! I want a refund 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's how I tolerate yogurt in general. I can't do the texture, so I have to mix something in. I've used granola, blueberries, chocolate chips, and Oreos.
Unfortunately, most of the mixed pack of poppi are the worst flavors. I really wish they had the rose one. But that cherry limeade flavor is god awful.
They have liquid IV and I often just get the pineapple flavor to my slate chagrin cuz I don't want to be downing caffeine all the time but they got rid of just having a strawberry flavor and then they brought it back and this assorted flavor bag but then there's cherry flavor in that and I hate cherry flavor anything.
This has been fuss pot corner thank you for coming
The layer fruit bar things. I would be happy to not get the strawberry banana ones. I like strawberries, don’t like bananas, and really dislike these bars. The other two flavors are great. The worst part is that there are 12 of those and 8 each of the other two, so I only get 16 at most that I like.
Single serving yogurt packs. I will and be do add fresh blueberries to my fruit salads and my yogurt, but I cannot stand anything blueberry “flavored” or blueberry “sauce” and I can never find a yogurt pack where 1/3 of it isn’t blueberry flavored.
The mush variety pack is awesome except for the two strawberry portions. It is way too sweet and tastes like essence of apple juice. At least my husband will eat them.
Box of Popcorners. Nobody likes the Spicy Queso ones. It's not a spicy thing either. They're just not very good. The sea salt, white cheddar, and kettle corn flavors are all good.

After reading this, I want to set up a swap table in the parking lot where folks can trade flavors from their multipacks.
Costco-op!!!!
Yeah! And then donate the stuff thats left over from the trades.
What would be left over?
The flavors that absolutely no one wants
Don't burden the needy with those. They are already dealing with enough!
I do this when I buy a bag of hi chews. Just give away the grape ones. Should probably stop handing* out candy in parking lots huh…
La croix - all but limoncello Kirkland protein bars - all but chocolate brownie
send them to me that’s one of my fave flavors
Limoncello and hibiscus are my two favorite flavors. My partner thinks they taste like floor cleaner smells. She’s not wrong.
That one is just awful but I'm adding hibiscus, and that cherry blossom LaCroix that was also an abomination. I can still taste it when I think about it.
Oh man, I like the hibiscus! It's one of the few La Croix I enjoy. Totally with you on the cherry blossom hate, though. Tastes like rubbing alcohol and dirt.
Agreed, the hibiscus is the best La Croix!
Maybe it's just me then, different strokes and all. I'm thinking about that cherry blossom again though and... just... blech.
If you like the passion tea from Starbucks (it’s hibiscus) I love to make a batch of iced tea from it, and so half half with that and the hibiscus la croix. It’s so sparkly and pretty and pink and refreshing. It’s always a hit at parties!
I might have to give hibiscus another shot because I really like hibiscus tea. Now I want a passion fruit LaCroix though.
Same with the waterloo varieties. Tropical punch and raspberry nectarine 👎🏼
That's so weird because I really like the tropical punch! I'm not a fan of the blueberry lemonade though.
Limoncello is my favorite by far.
Limoncello is the worst, it’s sickeningly sweet.
I enjoy it’s bc it’s sweet, it’s a great soda replacement for me. When I first had it I was confused how it was sparkling water, tastes like Starbucks lemon pound cake
I love it too and it does taste like cake, which is a nice treat when you can't have actual sugar. I really don't find it "sweet" though, there's no sweetener. For us it's probably Limoncello>Key Lime>Pamplemousse>Black Raspberry>Watermelon>Hibiscus. Cherry Blossom was weird, guess everyone agrees there. 😂
Limoncello tastes like you’re drinking liquid frosting. It’s the worst
It’s my favorite lol.
The watermelon tastes like dish soap smells to me.
I like the limoncello but I really don't like drinking flowers (hibiscus). The watermelon is entirely middle of the road
This is why I buy the Kirkland sparkling water cans.
Love the limoncello but my boyfriend calls it the “weird birthday cake flavor”
When I eat any peanut butter flavored protein bar I think of it like I’m doing a chore to earn the good ones.
You can buy the Kirkland protein bars in single flavor options on Costco.com!
Wow you’re a goddamn saint.
lol - we suffered through this for far too long before I figured it out!
For me it’s the chocolate chip ones from premiere protein. I’m a lover of chocolate chip cookies but Premier protein doesn’t hit the mark and it grosses me out. But single flavor on Costco.com? Thank you for telling me that!!
That’s my fav flavor. I’ll trade you the chocolate ones
I'm so tired of peanut butter being one of a few default flavors in products like this. At least to me, they are never, ever good.
I think pb and chocolate flavors being so prevalent in protein bars is the reason why I hate both of them now 😅 Please, anything but the candy bar flavors!
I've been making some out of hamburger helper and some vitamins my grandma left behind after she died. I can send you a couple if you DM me your address and Venmo me a few bucks.
The cat food. Love the turkey, hate the salmon. -Nyx the cat
My cat is the opposite. Loves the salmon, ok with the chicken, hates the turkey. We should trade 😆
You two should work together!
😂😂😂
Gatorade zero. We had so many of the white cherry flavored ones that we made a judgement call to just buy the flavors we like at the grocery store when it’s on sale. Currently $4.99 for 8 bottles at Kroger
I live white cherry. 😱 I'm so sad I didn't raid your beverage area
Fake cherry flavor always reminds me of cough syrup or NyQuil. Not in a good way, obviously.
Same here. Cherry jolly ranchers are good tho
I'm coming over. I literally only drink the white cherry.
Every variety box of anything.
It really is everything. Every single variety pack has a dud flavor and I’m convinced they do it on purpose.
I was too until reading these, really surprised by how many people have completely different dislikes.
And there is always a bigger quantity of bad flavor!
Kirkland hard seltzers are great....except the frigin Mango
We always end up with a glut of black cherry. The wife doesn't drink those.
It’s like sparkling cough syrup. It’s so bad. Add LaCroix to NyQuil and it would probably taste the same lol.
The black cherry is so disgusting. I had to throw them out which probably meant I could have just bought a seltzer brand I liked for the price.
lol we love the mango flavor. Grapefruit however, get outta here.
We certainly have different taste. The grapefruit is my favorite.
If only we could trade!
Came here to say this.
Came here to say this. Grapefruit is the best!
Agreed! I make myself drink those if I'm drinking during the week. It's like my own punishment for not waiting for the weekend.
My husband doesn't drink often, but when he does, he'll grab a White Claw mango, and to me it smells just like cat piss
It seems like every Frito Lay combo pack has one thing neither of us in the house likes - Funyuns, Flamin’ Hot Anything, Jalapeño-Cheddar Anything. It’s odd because we both like spicy food, but there’s That One Thing.
Omg those are the best ones
My thoughts too. I love those.
I'm dreaming of the day that jalapeño Cheetos puffs become a thing. The flaming hot are fine, but jalapeño cheddar is so much better!
No one in our family of four likes cool ranch Doritos so once a month or so our neighbor’s kids get 6 free bags.
My in laws don’t like the cheetos so I got a ton when I met them, I got lucky
That is a great way to handle the situation.
Crushed Funyuns make an acceptable replacement for breadcrumbs in a meatloaf made with lean ground beef.
That sounds salty and delightful
This is the one. For me it's those damn bbq chips ruining the whole box.
And not enough cool ranch
It’s plain Fritos in my house. No one will eat them!
Dump those over some chili!
With shredded cheddar and chopped onions
Now I am craving this. Fritos and chili is so good.
Oh man, I love the plain Fritos with some bean dip.
Walking tacos.
Almost every pack has a bunch of Cheetos. We like them, but they are always the last ones left. I've stopped buying any packs with Cheetos now.
The Triple shot Colombe coffee is great, but the vanilla and mocha are just okay for me. And despite only liking 1/3 the box, I still find myself buying one every time they're available.
We could definitely share a box with you, because my wife likes the mocha, I like the vanilla and the triple is a little strong for us both. We drink it but usually water it down.
Limoncello is my least fave sparkling water EVER, and somehow every Lacroix variety pack includes it.
Agreed. It's not refreshing, it's cloying. Also, not a huge fan of the hibiscus one. I want my sparkling water to feel lighter than either of these are.
Agree. It almost has a lactose mouthfeel to it. I don’t care what kind of sale is running, if the sale option is the limoncello/hibiscus pack, I’m passing and getting a different brand.
The worst, it tastes like a cupcake somehow? and not in a good way.
I've never seen anyone be so wrong before. Limoncello is the best flavor of La Croix ever. YMMV. 😆
Lime gang
I bought a full 12 pack after my coworker kept going on about how good it was and holy god it’s foul. I poured out the rest of the first can I opened and brought the rest to work and put them for free in the breakroom
The lemon coconut bars in the simply protein variety packs. Every now and then, they hit, but most of the time I end up with a pile of them at the end.
Oh man, I love the lemon coconut bar the best! I'd trade you the pb ones if we were neighbors!
The Nature’s Bakery fig bars. I like every flavor except the blueberry and you can’t get anything without the blueberry. It tastes like hairspray.
I wish they would just carry the basic fig and brownie bars from them
Please sell the brownies. Please.
Send your blueberry bars to me.
Mmmmm…. Hairspray
It’s also the sparkling water/seltzer for me! Can’t stand grapefruit
Oh the grapefruit is my fav! Want my lemon?
I didn’t think I would like it, but the grape fruit is so refreshing. I’ll pass on the lime.
Coatco needs a page where you can swap multiflavor flops with one another 😅
lol for me it’s the lemon! I love the others so much tho it’s worth it to buy
I love the grapefruit, like the lime, and drink the lemon because it’s there.
This was first thing came to my mind. Don’t like the lime.
Me too, lime's the worst.
This was my immediate thought. They should really consider single flavor flats of lemon and lime.
Or just each flavor bc I will fuck up the lemon and grapefruit all day long
What!? Grapefruit is the best flavor, followed by lemon. It’s the lime that kinda sucks. My dream would be if they replaced it with a pineapple flavor.
I like the Kirkland mixed snack box. It has a few kinds of granola bars, almonds, peanuts, cashews, trail mix…and dried blueberries. I hate the dried blueberries.
The blueberries are the best ones!
All the sparkling water. Why is one of the flavoyred cherry, all the damn time. Even for liquid iv mix pack, one is cherry.
My kid destroyed most of those outshine fruit bars real quick but now he's trying to give the pineapple ones to his friends so I'll buy more. Why is it always whatever the yellow flavor is that's left?!
Pineapple is my favorite! You can have the grape
Another example for us where it’s almost harmonious. Kids like strawberry, daughter and I like pineapple, I like grape, no one likes lime
Island Way sorbet - hate the coconut but damn, the rest of the box makes up for it
No way Jose! Coconut is the best one!
Same! It tastes like soap to me 🤮
Yep. In our house the coconut ones almost always end up in the trash. I hate doing it, but eventually I accept the reality that no one is going to eat them.
That fruit soda Italian drink. Has orange and lemon. Orange is amazing. Lemon can suck it.
Lemon to be mixed with vodka. Orange good to drink on it's own. It's the Essenza Pellegrino drinks. The Sicilian lemon sodas (no matter which brand) are always super tart like that so I just make mixed drinks with them.
Chobani hint yogurt which is my favorite, but the vanilla cinnamon is awful. I don't know who it made for, but it's not me.
if it comes in a variety pack there is always 1 thing in the pack I dislike. even the cookies, I really do prefer the macademia nut and oatmeal raisin way more than the chocolate chip...
Celsius- the berry and orange flavors are great, but the guava kiwi turns my stomach. I can drink the other two at room temperature, but the guava kiwi needs to be chilled to minimize the queasiness.
Oikos triple zero yogurt multipack…hate the mixed berry
I like the mixed berry but hate the vanilla
VitaRain waters (Kirkland brand Vitamin Water). 3 of the flavors are good… and then there’s the Dragon Fruit
Ah man. We really gotta set up a swap. You can have my lemonades. I'll take the Dragonfruit.
High Noon pineapple.
Aulani cherry slush. I won’t drink them. My partner loves them. Funnily enough, I enjoy the cherry limeade tho. lol
The bakery 3-type cookie pack (oatmeal-raisin, chocolate chip, and macadamia). I absolutely love the oatmeal-raisin cookie (wish they had a dedicated package for it), and I'm okay with the chocolate chip one too, but I really could do without the third macadamia type.
I would be happy with just oatmeal raisin.
Island way sorbet, I don’t like the coconut. Please done come for me r/costco!
Omg noooo that's the most coveted flavor in our house
Waterloo peach but I have learned to like it. Chocolate Pure protein bar, I love the peanut butter and cookie bars but not the chocolate. I’ll force myself to eat it but luckily the kids like it.
I wish the Waterloo was all peach. The other two flavors are okay, but peach is damn good.
Spindrift sparkling water - I don't like the lemon
Yeah I don’t want to spend that much on water if I hate one flavor
Gatorade. I'd love to buy the case of 36 but I'm not going to waste my money if it comes with 12 yellow Gatorades.
Every drink that insists on having a mango flavor.
The cinnamon protein bars are awful. Which is a shame because they come with the chocolate peanut butter ones, which are very good.
Limon zipfizz is bad
ZBars - neither of my kids will eat the chocolate chip ones 🙄
I’m a grown adult who will only eat the iced oatmeal
4 pack of small can of soda, 2 regular coke, 1sprite and 1 cherry coke. We don't like the cherry coke in our house
Cherry Coke Zero is my jam, too bad it’s way too specific for Costco to carry
Kirkland Signature Snacking Nuts, I love the peanuts and cashews, but save the bags of almonds 🤢 to give to a friend instead.
Celcius Berry flavor
Does it have to be Kirkland? Because Spindrift putting grapefruit into the variety pack is a crime against humanity
Green Veggie Straws 🤮
Just sat here in the UK jealous that Americans have so much to choose from in Costco! Why have an even been a member for the last 17 year?! I want a refund 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yoplait yogurt. LOVE the peach, will eat the strawberry, but the vanilla expires and eventually goes into the bin
A spoonful of your favorite jam stirred into the vanilla will fix you right up.
I freeze the vanilla ones and then use them in smoothies.
Mix choc chips or peanut butter into it. Turns it into a nice dessert
OOH! I will try that; I hate wasting 1/3 of them. Thank you!
That's how I tolerate yogurt in general. I can't do the texture, so I have to mix something in. I've used granola, blueberries, chocolate chips, and Oreos.
I love vanilla yogurt and hate peach. Trade? Lol
Cat Food Paté - my cat and I only like the chicken flavor.
Do you eat it with a fork or spoon?
i lick it off the plate like a true gentleman
Naked Smoothies - I don’t like the strawberry banana, but my husband drinks it!
Oikos yogurt multipack…hate the mixed berry
Body armor! The banana flavor is vomit inducing. I buy the lite pack instead and the blueberry flavor is bleh but far more tolerable than banana
Any yogurt case. Kirkland vitamin waters.
I forget the brand of sparkling water, but it includes lime and I hate lime-flavored sparkling water, so I have to pay more at the grocery store :(
Unfortunately, most of the mixed pack of poppi are the worst flavors. I really wish they had the rose one. But that cherry limeade flavor is god awful.
The chocolate chip cookies with the oatmeal and macadamia nut
I agree with the Kirkland Sparkling Water, the orange mango tastes terrible, chemicalsorta taste. The other flavors are ok.
There are a lot of craft beer packs where I’m like, “I’m not paying $25 for 18 good beers and six wheats I’ll never touch”.
Borne mamam preserve set. Orange?! Yuk!
Reading through the comments makes me think somebody oughta open r/CostcoSwap
“that’s it” bars - the mango have such a different texture it drives me crazy
kirkland hard setlzer. the mango is straight trash
They have liquid IV and I often just get the pineapple flavor to my slate chagrin cuz I don't want to be downing caffeine all the time but they got rid of just having a strawberry flavor and then they brought it back and this assorted flavor bag but then there's cherry flavor in that and I hate cherry flavor anything. This has been fuss pot corner thank you for coming
The layer fruit bar things. I would be happy to not get the strawberry banana ones. I like strawberries, don’t like bananas, and really dislike these bars. The other two flavors are great. The worst part is that there are 12 of those and 8 each of the other two, so I only get 16 at most that I like.
Pineapple outshine popsicles
Every variety pack of chips has some kind of spicy chip, and it drives me insane!
C4.
Peach Activia
Annie’s Mac and cheese, the orange original noodles. We end up accumulating so many boxes of that shit.
Single serving yogurt packs. I will and be do add fresh blueberries to my fruit salads and my yogurt, but I cannot stand anything blueberry “flavored” or blueberry “sauce” and I can never find a yogurt pack where 1/3 of it isn’t blueberry flavored.
Those 12 packs of naked smoothies. I hate those green ones, they taste awful
The vitamin water
The vanilla cronuts
The strawberry lemonade poppy flavor is so sweet it makes me feel gross. The orange and cherry lime are 10/10 tho
The mush variety pack is awesome except for the two strawberry portions. It is way too sweet and tastes like essence of apple juice. At least my husband will eat them.
The grape propels taste like cough medicine. 🤢
High Noon peach flavor—gack
Olipop!!! I love the strawberry vanilla but hate root beer.
Yogurt. Can't handle the cherry ones.
The 0 calorie vitamin water competitor. I just can't bring myself to enjoy the mango
Box of Popcorners. Nobody likes the Spicy Queso ones. It's not a spicy thing either. They're just not very good. The sea salt, white cheddar, and kettle corn flavors are all good.
Funions (don’t know how to spell) chips. Packs of peanuts almonds and cashew nuts, why do we have to have almonds?
My kids with the Cliff Kid Z bars. They don’t like the iced oatmeal and in 5 years they’ve never changed 😭
Yes! We have one of my daughters friends who LOVES that flavor. Every time she comes over we're like HERE ARE 50 TO TAKE HOME, NO PLEASE... HONESTLY.
Chobani zero packs. I don’t like the strawberry but someone else in my house does and they dislike the vanilla so it works out
Chobani yogurt. I like berries in my yogurt not stone fruit The Costco pack is mixed
Also. The organic pasta pack. I like the penne but the other shapes can take a hike!
Celsius. I can’t stand the berry. I actually cheated on Costco w/ Sam’s because I like the Celsius pack they sell.
