Costco&rsquo;s popular pizza was first introduced in 1989 and hasn&rsquo;t changed in price for over 30 years. For just $1.99 per slice, you can order a huge slice of cheese, pepperoni, or combo pizza that barely fits on a plate. Each pizza is made with chewy artisan dough, a thick slathering of U.S.-grown tomatoes, aged, buttery cheeses, and 10-month-aged shredded Parmesan cheese.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"intro lead\"><strong>3.

The food court Chicken Bakes are made from fresh ingredients, including chicken breast, cheese, bacon, and Caesar dressing wrapped up in leftover pizza dough.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"intro lead\"><strong>4.
