    That sounds like it would taste pretty good, but I just have no desire to stand in the blazing hot parking lot of a Costco with a group of strangers all furiously wolfing down a pound of chocolate pie each lol

    This seems like a parody of how Costcos in Mexico have a whole mob of customers come in at opening every day to fight over the pies & cakes, which all get immediately bought up, to be re-sold by individual slices at marked-up prices at local bakeries delis.

      Wouldn’t it take less time and money to just bake them? They’re just pies. It’s not like the recipes are secret. I could see a deli doing that but not a bakery.

      If you already have the whole bakery all you need is some butter, flour, sugar, and eggs. And you can advertise “Not from Costco!” pies.

    I bought one of these earlier this year. I still have a 1/4 of it left. Its rich and dense, eating more than a slice in one sitting will make you question how many calories you can eat in a day.

      But now we’re questioning your health. Cakes can’t last more than a few days, especially with dairies

      Some Costcos have stopped (they rotate pie options throughout the year) but you might be able to find them still

      I’ll meet you there, and I have an extra fork so you don’t need to bring one

      You’re responsible for the fork, kidney, and plate. I’ll bring the knife.

    I will tell you, it’s the most delicious pie ever, but you can’t eat more than 1/8th at a time without feeling blah. The good part is that it can be frozen and it’s BETTER after freezing. Like a pie made of resees ice cream.

    If you’re paying, you can eat a slice and throw the rest in the face of a gay hobo or something. No need for friends.
