Costco is generally known for providing its loyal flock of fully committed members with wholesome, 5-star customer service.
So when we came across a recent viral TikTok video from well-known content creator Jordan the Stallion that pokes back at the company, you better believe that we were invested in the gossipy tale.
The content creator, who's real name is Jordan Howlett, has already cultivated a reputation for divulging secret corporate recipes. Here's the story behind his latest Costco reveal: Following a membership card dispute with a Costco cashier, Howlett shared some of Costco's recipes, including ones for Costco's mac and cheese and churros. Costco recently replaced its popular churros with a massive double chocolate chunk cookie, inspiring some serious backlash. It was only a matter of time before Howlett got the deets on the latest food court addition.
