Key Highlights
- Costco introduces a new creamy Lobster Mac & Cheese in its deli section.
- The ready-to-bake meal offers a touch of luxury with zero extra effort.
- Shoppers are already calling it a must-try comfort food for fall.
Costco Adds a Fancy Twist to Classic Comfort Food
Macaroni and cheese is a cold-weather favorite, but making it from scratch takes time — from shredding cheese to preparing the sauce. For busy evenings, Costco now has a solution.
The retailer has rolled out a rich, creamy Lobster Mac & Cheese in its grab-and-go deli section, and shoppers are loving it.
Priced at $6.99 per pound, a little over four pounds comes in just under $30 — a strong value for a meal loaded with real lobster.
A Hearty Meal That Feels Special
Shoppers report that the dish looks “divine,” with a large tray of creamy mac and cheese topped with generous lobster chunks visible across the top.
While it’s slightly pricier than Costco’s usual ready meals, it feeds at least four people, bringing each serving to under $8 — still cheaper than most takeout dishes, especially those with seafood.
It also works as an impressive side dish for holiday dinners. Paired with steaks, it becomes an easy surf-and-turf option that looks homemade with almost no effort.
How to Heat Costco’s Lobster Mac & Cheese
Heating the dish is simple:
- Keep it in the same container
- Remove the lid
- Cover with foil
- Place on a cookie sheet
- Bake until hot and bubbling — about 40 minutes, depending on your oven
Food Safety: What the USDA Recommends
The USDA advises reheating all prepared foods — including seafood dishes — to an internal temperature of 165°F to reduce the risk of foodborne illness.
- Eat refrigerated leftovers within 3–4 days
- Discard anything left out for more than 2 hours
Shoppers React: “I’m Picking This Up Tomorrow!”
Fans are already sharing their excitement. User @NatalieDean commented, “Just told my husband I’m stopping at Costco after work tomorrow to pick this up to have with dinner!!”
For many Costco shoppers, the new Lobster Mac & Cheese combines childhood nostalgia with a touch of luxury — perfect for holidays, date nights, or a cozy evening at home.
Summary
Costco’s new Lobster Mac & Cheese delivers creamy, restaurant-level comfort with no prep work. It’s affordable, indulgent, and easy to bake — making it one of the season’s standout grab-and-go meals.
