COSTCO has launched a new snack and customers are loving the flavor.
Many shop at Costco thanks to the savings they can get in bulk for their family.
Recently, Costco fan Instagram account @costcodealsonline spotted a new item called the green chile cornbread.
It comes with roasted jalapeno and poblano peppers.
And some people who have tried are big fans of it.
One commenter on the Instagram post said: "It's really good! They were sampling it at the Georgetown grand opening a few weeks ago."

Another said: "Just bought a loaf. Very tasty. Cross between savory and sweet. Can’t wait to buy another."
And a third positive commenter said: "Warmed up with a little butter on it! It was good!"
Others, meanwhile, were not impressed with the new cornbread flavor.
"So gross, this one is a hard pass," a critic said.

While prices can vary by location, a local Costco employee told The U.S. Sun that it was selling the cornbread for $6.99, costing about 23 cents per ounce.
And note that availability can vary by location.
Some local stores we contacted did not have the green chile cornbread in stock.
MORE NEW ITEMS AT COSTCO
The move by Costco to update its bakery section comes after it added two new food court items.
One is the roast beef sandwich, which includes onion relish, a mayo-mustard sauce blend, lettuce, cherry tomatoes, red onions, layered on an artisan roll.
But customers were critical of the $10 price tag.
One TikTok user when the sandwich was first spotted at stores: “The sandwich looks pretty good but $10 bucks seems a little high for Costco prices, no?”
The other new item is the strawberry soft-serve ice cream flavor.
Shoppers can choose to add the flavor to Costco’s iconic sundae or order it only as a stand-alone option.
The new ice cream only costs $1.99.
Also, Costco is bringing back its mango smoothie.
Each blended beverage comes with four servings of fruit, including strawberries, blackberries, and acai.
It costs $2.99.
SUMMER OF FUN
And Costco is far from the only establishment that is launching new items this summer.
Aldi has brought five new items to its store shelves.
This includes the mini cinnamon rolls, mochis, a cotton candy machine, popcorn maker and a stainless steel water bottle.
When it comes to fast food restaurants, Dairy Queen announced it would bring back pumpkin pie blizzard after fears that it would not be included on the menu this year.
"The iconic Blizzard Treat is as sweet as – well – pie, combining real pumpkin pie pieces and world-famous DQ vanilla soft serve, topped with whipped topping and a dash of nutmeg," the company said in a description of the fall favorite.
The pumpkin pie blizzard has been around seasonally for 32 years and will return on August 28.
And McDonald's has launched the peanut butter crunch McFlurry.
The new item comes with 550 calories and a whopping 59 grams of total sugar.
While prices can vary by location, it costs $4.49 at a local store viewed by The U.S. Sun.
