The other day someone posted a comment looking for some nutritional (specifically, calories) information for a couple of the Costco food court items. Since I didn’t have the information, I asked our friends at the Costco online Customer Service team if they had any information they could send me. They totally came through with a very helpful PDF that lists the complete nutritional and allergen information for 26 items that are served in their food court area.
The nutritional data sheet was last updated almost a year ago now, July 2008. And of course, your food court most likely doesn’t have all 26 items on this list. For instance, I know that my Austin Costco does not have french fries (thankfully). And where do they have Italian Sausage Sandwiches? In any case, this PDF has lots and lots of helpful information if you’re trying to watch your calories or just like to know what you’re eating, nutritionally speaking. Like, who knew that the hot dog or Polish sausage had somewhere between 540 – 570 calories? No wonder they can fill you up like a meal, huh? If you’re looking for low calorie, the Fruit Smoothie with just 290 calories, really is the best bet.

The Italian sausage sandwich is available at NJ Costco locations (go figure) and it’s delicious – it’s a sweet sausage served on a hoagie roll with peppers and onions. Unfortunately my waistline is expanding and I need to cut down on the number of times I visit the food court. Luckily I’ve decided to rely on Costco for fat pants – they’ve got some good deals in basic clothing too.

I think that the Chicken Cesar Salad and the Chicken Bake are shockingly high in calories but what is up iwth the Turkey Wrap? I mean, 810 calories is beyond crazy for one single thing!

Wow, I am really disappointed. I have celiac disease and two of my kids are gluten intolerant. I had no idea there was wheat in Costco’s hot dogs. I thougth 100% beef meant “just beef.” Dang. There goes another quickie food option for us. Thanks for providing this info though. I can’t find anything about it on the Costco website.

I’m fairly certain it’s the mayo in the Turkey Wrap that’s the main culprit. Cut that out and I’ll bet you cut out at least 1/3 of the fat and calories. I always special order mine without mayo.
But I also wonder if there is lard being use dint he tortillas for the wraps?
Now as for that sodium load, I’m a bit stymied!
9
Kimberly //
2009.05.15 at 6:39 am
LeeAnn, my guess is that the wheat comes from the hot dog bun, and not the hot dog itself. Unfortunately, I no longer have my package of hot dogs or I could check their ingredients list. I know I looked at the ingredients list and I really remember them being beef and spices. I’ll look at the list of ingredients when I go to Costco this weekend.
10
Kimberly //
2009.05.15 at 6:40 am
Clue, I’ll bet you’re right about the mayo and very possibly the lard too. With regards to the sodium, I’ll bet that comes from the way that they prepare the turkey; I’m guessing they use a brine.

I used to wonder why Costco has such a preponderence of large sizes in the pants but now I know.. you eat first at the Food Court and then go shop for your new size. Or I guess you can buy pants in anticipation of visiting the Food Court.
12
Michelle //
2009.05.17 at 2:22 pm
Actually, my guess is that most of the fat (and sodium) in the Turkey Wrap is from the Havarti Cheese. It typically has something like 11 grams of fat per 1 oz. serving!

Several of the items listed are actually quite a bit healthier than their counterparts at fast food places. Most items are relatively low in fat, and decent sources of protein. The chicken bake, chicken caesar salad, and turkey wrap are all good items. Don’t blame Costco just because you can’t control the portions you eat. Sure, the turkey wrap has 810 calories, but it is also almost a one pound serving. The chicken caesar is one and a quarter pounds. In typical Costo fashion, items sold at the food court are also kind of “bulk” items. Try sharing with a friend, or saving half for later. If you’d like to cut out more calories and fat, avoid using most if not all dressing, and avoid mayo. Also, LeeAnn, wheat is listed as an allergen because of the bun that the hot dogs are listed on. The nutritional information posted for the hot dogs include the frank, bread, ketchup, mustard, relish, and onion.

the nutrition information HAS changed. i work at the food court. on the nutrition information we have it says there is NO sugar in the yogurt! (which i was really surprised at) the hot dog includes the bread, the dog, ketchup, mustard, relish, onions and kraut. i don’t think the turkey wrap has improved. the chicken bake nutrition information really varies because of the difference in size! they actually make the chicken bakes there, so obviously the sizes are going to be different.

Sheesh! Quitcherbitchin’ about fat, calories and the like! (How is it working for you anyway?) What matters is the SUGAR GRAMS and the carbohydrate. Strive for a maximum of 15gm of sugar per day, and about 80 grams of carbs, and you should lose your belly fat. Go to youtube and check out Dr. Wayne Dyer’s appearance on Ellen on 5/22/09.

“is a slice of combination pizza REALLY 680?? or is that the whole damn pizza?”
That sounds about right. Your typical large slice of pizza from Domino’s, etc will have about 350-400 calories. The Costco pizzas are 18″, which works out to nearly twice the size of a 14″ pizza. A Costco slice is easily twice as big as a slice of pizza you’d get elsewhere. Plus Costco loads their pizzas with cheese, while most places put relatively little cheese on their pizzas. Cheese is very high in calories. A “whole damn” Costco pizza probably has more than 5000 calories.

I don’t believe the information in the PDF to be true. That’s too much saturated fat for one slice of combo pizza. The information needs to be reevaluated.

Kimberly //
2010.02.17 at 7:12 pm
Well, it came from Costco and I’m sure that they had a nutritional analysis and didn’t just guesstimate. They do use a lot of cheese on their pizza, and my guess is that accounts for the high level of fats.

Thanks for posting this info! I was trying to decide if I should “save up” my calories this afternoon in order to have something for dinner at the food court before we do our shopping, but, no thank you! I shudder when I think a couple weeks ago I had a chicken bake and a mocha freeze in one sitting! Ignorance really is bliss….and a bigger waistline in this case.
Thanks for the enlightenment!

**I realize this comment doesn’t belong under the Food Court, but does fall under nutrition info that really should be made available as there is no safe level for trans fat consumption. **
I’m a dad concerned about what goes down the hatch of my kiddos. My kids got hooked on the Costco cookies (Oatmeal Raisin and Chocolate Chunk) when over at Grandma and Grandpas. Since nothing is spelled out on the container label, I spoke with someone in the bakery area of Costco today (4/25/10) and they pulled a binder that had the the nutrition facts for muffins and cookies.
The various muffins showed 0 g of trans fat but the cookies show 2 grams of trans fat for each cookie.
That’s the end of those cookies for this family.

I was a little shocked by the calorie counts as well. I thought the Turkey Wrap was a good way to go, but I guess not. However, if it is the mayo, then maybe it’s not so bad? In CA they serve it dry…very dry. My mom & I were joking about bringing along our own mayo. The last time we ordered it we asked for mayo on the side & they don’t even carry it at the food court.
33
Kelley //
2010.05.14 at 7:53 am
I did notice on another site with nutritional info. from Costco that one serving of pizza (700 calories) is 1/6 of the 18 in. pizza. Costco typically cuts their pizzas into 8 slices, or 16 if you have little kids. My guess would be that one serving of costco pizza is actually closer to two servings of regular pizza.

I don’t see milk listed as an allergen with the fruit smoothie. Is there any way to find out if the smoothie is vegan?
35
Emily //
2010.06.09 at 3:52 pm
With some more research I found this ingredient list for the fruit smoothie.
Ingredients: water, marionberry puree, strawberry puree, sucrose, corn sweetner, banana puree, raspberry puree, boysenberry puree, orange juice concentrate, natural and artifical flavor, motified food starch, citric acid, FD&C red color #40, red color #3, blue #1, mono-and diglyerides, cellulose gum, and guar gum
Mono and diglycerides can be animal or plant derrived, so it depends on how hard core vegan someone is.

2010.07.26 at 2:02 pm
The nutritional information is definitly incorrect for the two items I was interested in learning about:
1. a slice of cheese pizza
2. turkey wrap
1. While the slices are certainly huge, I doubt that each single slice of cheese pizza has such a high number of calories (700) and protein (44 grams)
Two of their cheese pizza slices may have the calories and protein mentioned.
Perhaps the person who puit together this PDF for Costco meant to say a serving size was two slices?
2. Unless I am reading it wrong, it appears that the simple turkey wrap (whole wheat wrap, turkey, tomato, lettuce, mayo) has 800 calories!
Again, must be a big mistake.
There is no way such a small and simple item made up of mostly healthy veggies and lean protein (turkey) would have 800 calories.
The mayo they use isn’t really all that much, and the amount of mayo clearly doesn’t add enough calories to equal this absurd figure of 800 calories.
Can someone out there check these obviously incorrect figures?
Whoever put this PDF together for Costco should do some explaining about their astronomical figures.
I would bet that every single item has incorrect (vastly overblown) amounts of calories and protein listed (and probably fat, sugar, and sodium as well)
The numbers just don’t match up with the items.
They can’t be accurate.
Thanks.

Costco’s turkey wrap would probably be a sensible meal if they didn’t insist on slathering mayonnaise all over it. Where I live [Georgia] I have had varying success asking them to prepare them without the mayo. Sometimes they will, but usually they just tell me they’re pre-made and that’s the way they come. Seems to me the smarter approach would be to make hem plain and let those who want mayo add it themselves.
40
Kimberly //
2010.08.23 at 4:27 am
@John – I agree! I’m not a huge mayo fan and everybody always wants to really slather it on sandwiches. So, I am with you, they should put it on the side and let you add your own, if you want it. I think that is definitely a big part of the calories too because mayo is not really a low-fat, health food.
41
Justin //
2010.08.23 at 6:42 pm
I guess I am lucky because they give you the mayo on the side for the turkey wraps at my Costco. They are fantastic. I was going to get a wrap just the other day when I noticed they had a big sign for a carne asada bake. A new item at the food court, I had to try it. Oh man it was so good!! All the great flavors of a carne asada burrito, but in a bread. Kind of like a torta sandwich.

2010.09.03 at 9:31 pm
Our Costco in Waterbury, CT just did a big remodel on the Food Court. They discontinued the Turkey Wrap and added the Carne Asada and the Mocha Freeze item. The new food court opened today. I would believe the calorie and fat counts. The pizza has at least twice the cheese that most other pizzas have and the dough is very thick. The turkey wraps were huge. I would sometimes get one, and was always crazy thirsty the rest of the day. I’m not surprised to see the high sodium count. I was guessing the turkey was really salty but the cheese was probably loaded, too. I guess the bottom line: the food court is not the place to eat if you care about healthy food unless you get the salad and don’t use the dressing or the croutons. It’s too bad, but the jumbo portions of most items sold at Costco don’t help the obesity problem in this country.

The calories stated for the pizza do not make sense to me. The chart says that the slice of cheese pizza has 700 calories, and that the slice of pepperoni pizza has only 620 calories. Since all the pizzas start off with the same basic cheese pizza, and the toppings are then added…how can adding a bunch fatty, greasy pepperoni result in 80 LESS calories than the cheese pizza without pepperoni? Can anyone explain that??

Rudy Hale //
2010.11.13 at 7:07 pm
Just an FYI for all the WW out there: the hot dog has 560 cal; 32 g fat and 3 g fiber = 13 points. Not worth the points!!!
50
Beau //
2010.11.14 at 3:15 pm
The pizza calories do make sense. The cheese pizza has more cheese on it than the pepperoni. They do not just take the basic cheese and add the pepperoni. Bad news Carne Asada Bake lovers: 740 calories, 230 from fat, 26 g fat, 2100 mg sodium. The turkey wraps also have a thick chunk of havarti cheese to add to the calorie count. It isn’t just the innocent turkey and veges that you think it is.
51
Kimberly //
2010.11.15 at 7:58 am
I agree with Beau. The cheese pizza has way more cheese on it than the pepperoni pizza or the other ones that have toppings. They don’t just take that cheese pizza and add stuff to it to create the other ones.

The food court nutrition info is great, but where can you find the same info on the “ready to cook” prepared meals, etc, that Costco prepares in-store? I’ve asked at the counter, and was told it’s on the website, but can’t find it anywhere.
53
Kimberly //
2010.12.10 at 8:47 am
@Mike, As far as I can tell, Costco doesn’t have any of the nutrition information on their website. And if they do, they certainly keep it well hidden. I haven’t posted nutrition info for anything but the pizzas, cakes & bagels from the main part of the warehouse. Was there something in particular that you were looking for information about?

Linda //
2010.12.18 at 6:29 pm
For those of you incredulous of the turkey wrap’s calories and putting all the blame on the mayo, just check out the calories for flour tortillas which is basically what a wrap is wrapped in. 1- 10 inch flour tortilla is 210 calories! The wrap at Costco I’m pretty sure is bigger than 10 inches. I used to think we were being so good having chicken fajitas on those ‘plain’ tortillas until I happened to check the calories one day-now I eat the fajitas without the tortillas….
55
Kimberly //
2010.12.21 at 7:51 am
@Linda – That’s a good point. I’m betting that is at least a 12″ diameter tortilla at Costco; they’re quite large. I still regard the mayo with a high level of suspicion though because it is really slathered on there. And let’s face it, mayo is always shady when it comes to calories.
56
Miranda Pierce //
2011.03.03 at 2:07 am
I work in the food court and those turkey wraps were high calorie. It’s not just the mayo, it’s the tortilla and the two slices of havarti cheese. I imagine the sodium has to come from the turkey. We did cut them in half and most people liked to share them.
As for the pizza, a whole 18 inch cheese has 24 oz of cheese on it, where as the other pizzas only have 14 oz. For the cheese pizza you’re looking at 4 oz of cheese per slice putting you at 400 calories from just the cheese.
A lot of the items are heavy on bread and cheese. When you break it down and add it up, it makes sense.

Hey People, since this is about Costco food I may as well post… I love those chicken wraps in tortilla things. You also get the salad in the same dish, my question is about the little tub of sauce that comes with it, peachy in colour and it has a cheese taste to it. Does anyone know the specific name of this since it doesn’t tell you on the packaging. I’ve looked everywhere but can’t find it, or even something similar. Is it maybe Costco’s own recipe or something?

I also work at a Costco food court and we always talk about how much money Costco would lose if they posted the nutritional information for the food they sell. If you are interested all the food courts have (or are supposed to have) the most updated print out of nutritional information. I know at our Costco we recently changed brands of both our hot dogs (From hebrew national to costcos kirkland signature which are higher in calorie and also not kosher) and changed our sauce make up (from a premade sauce to a concentrate that we dilute ourselves), so the nutritional information can change from time to time. But sadly, the cheese pizza really does have 700 calories and the turkey wrap 800. Granted I’ve never been able to eat a whole wrap one myself, so really 400 calories for a very filling lunch isn’t horrible. The other contributing factor to the pizza (besides the ridiculous amount of cheese) and chicken bake is the dough gets slathered in olive oil while it’s rising. So a lot of the oil gets absorbed into the dough and cooked with the food.

I have been wondering about the information on the cheese pizza so I went and bought one yesterday. If you buy a whole pizza they cut it into 12 slices. If you purchase a slice, the pizza has only been cut into 6 pieces.
I then took the information on grams for a slice and it came out to 2 slices of the bought pizza, which would be one slice if bought by itself. Now it all makes sense.

I actually asked that exact same question here a while back . A Costco food court employee answered and said that it is because they put a lot more cheese on the cheese pizza than the others, hence the higher calories.

I was wondering the same thing about the cheese pizza vs the others…It honestly doesnt look lie they put more cheese on the cheese pizza. It looks lie the pepperoni is a cheese pizza slice topped with peperoni. then again, if that were the case, they would not charge a flat rate of 1.99 per slice…haha i always thought i got a good deal being able to get peperoni for the same price, but of course they had me beat in the brains department hahah.
unbelievable how a slice is 700!!!! i thought they were 350. haha i go there and eat 2 slices and refill my soda cup 3 timess mminimum that;s a 2000 calorie meal!!! im a weightlifter trying to gain weight, so im happy with this news haha.
a lot of food for only 1.99 hahaha

Much of the sodium and calories for the salad is in the dressing. The chicken has some sodium to it, but use less dressing.

After reading all of these posts, can’t find one that talks about my favorite food in the court… the chocolate dipped ice cream bar rolled in almonds. Have to say I will make an excuse to go to Costco just to savor one of these. However, my tune may be changing as a result of this nutritional list. I’m very surprised at the 65 grams of fat for this “special” treat. Does anyone know if the chocolate has any oil in it? This being the highest fat count of all food items, it would seem the fat is hiding somewhere. Any educated guesses?

Well all nuts (including almonds) are high in fat, so I would think the almonds have a lot to do with it. But the kind of fat in nuts is mostly healthy (not saturated) fat. That is why 37 of the 65 grams of the fat in this treat are not saturated fat. Most of the rest of the fat is in the ice cream itself. But nuts are also very calorie dense. I happen to love those ice cream bars also. On the rare occasion that I get one, I always skip a meal that day to make up for all those extra calories!

I work at Costco in Canada and a lot of these items we don’t offer at the food court in my warehouse. The Cheese pizza has three different types of cheese on it, where the pepperoni has only mozza. The deli, bakery and the food court do have a list of nutritional info for all items that they PREPARE, so if you’re getting a packaged dressing with your salad (I know we give Renee’s Balsamic vinegrette with our Chicken pecan apple salad), then you’ll have to contact Renee’s as a company for any info not listed on the dressing packaging. We offer Poutine (french fries topped with Gouda cheese curds and Gravy) and i believe it’s a 9 or 11 ounce serving of JUST fries, it’s the equivalent of eating 2 of KFC’s double down sandwiches (chicken and bacon pressed between 2 pieces of breaded fried chicken). Yes our items are not the healthiest for you but you have to say they are damn tasty! If you only eat there on occasion, then you really needn’t worry so much about the fat and calorie content and just enjoy your treat

Thanks for posting this Kimberly. I know it’s kind of old, but it’s still helpful. I’ve been on Weight Watchers for 5 years and have always counted the slice of cheese pizza as 12 points (two slices of cheese pizza) – now I know it’s 19 (ouch)!!! But the good news is that I’d rather have pepperoni, and it’s only 16 (woo-hoo)! I’m going to Costco tonight and planned on having my slice of pizza, however I think I’ll try to get my boyfriend to split a hot dog and a slice of pizza for 14 points instead!

[...] giant-sized hot dog, hoping I made a nutritionally wiser choice. Only to discover upon looking it up online the other night that this jacked-up salad has more calories, total fat, cholesterol and sodium than [...]

The poutine is about 1900 calories
I asked one day and they have (at our location in Ancaster Ontario) a binder with this information in it.
I am wondering if anyone else’s location has the Apple Pecan Chcken salad with Balsamic dressing.
What do we think its values are? Hate to sacrifice afew fries for a better alt, if the alt is high also ! LOL It is after all supposed to feel like a treat !
Great thread ! Thanks for sharing !
