The 7 Best Vegan Meals You Can Buy at Costco

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at UCF chapter.

Costco is quite a magical store – a place where you can buy everything from toilet paper to chocolate in huge quantities and try unique foods from around the world. At first glance, it doesn’t seem very vegan-friendly. There seems to meat or cheese in almost every packaged meal. But if you’re lucky, your local warehouse might carry amazing vegan meals.
