Costco is facing backlash from shoppers who have noticed significant changes to some of their favorite products, including thinner peppermint bark and larger muffins. TikTok user @infinitely.balanced expressed disappointment over the reduced thickness of the peppermint bark, while a Reddit post revealed the discontinuation of the 12-pack mix-and-match muffin deal.

In a recent video, TikTok user @infinitely.balanced claims that her annual purchase of peppermint bark is clearly different from previous seasons. “Costco, what the is this?” she asks. “This is not like their other peppermint bark, but this was still $15. I want you to take a look at this: If you’ve purchased peppermint bark from Costco, you know what you’re looking at.”
A photo of a sign shows that the store is no longer selling 12-packs of mix-and-match muffin flavors for $9.99. Instead, they’re now only available in 8-packs of a single flavor for $6.99—and much smaller in size. “Costco is slowly starting down the path that had led to the demise of many other businesses,” they write. “They up the price for membership. They discontinue carrying other products that were a big draw to membership. And now: Downsizing the Signature Costco Muffins.”
