The hot dog and chicken bake are my faves 🙌🏽

[@youseeisa]

This man has good taste. 😊

[@crascoe159]

Yes those are the best forget the pizza

[@crascoe159]

They also have the best I’ve cream

[@travonsurgeon4863]

Even better than the cake? Costco cake is ace.

[@shawnm7246]

chicken bakes suck now. They used to be so much better, but during covid they are made ina factory and shipped to costcos and warmed up there vs being hand made.

[@itsprodzach]

Serina is the type of person to invite people to go eat somewhere and complain about the food and say “Who picked this place?”

[@olivianazareno6129]

Yes, she sounds like a complainer and super annoying

[@kyspeters]

Imagine having to sit next to her for the entire shoot.

[@ivexoxo]

Why is everyone so sensitive 😭

[@michellebatzel5809]

@@ivexoxo Why are you crying?

There is always one person who is extra judgemental... a kill joy

[@chrisblue961]

😂 I was thinking she’s probably really judgmental in daily life.

[@mike-m123]

I'm starting to feel like BuzzFeed intentionally casts one super judgemental archetype for their taste test videos

[@rebeccamortimer7563]

Picked her from the hotdog 🙄🙄🙄 always one 🤬

[@tanyaslz7814]

I was just about to comment this

[@acatnamedjimmy8060]

Yesss. And they ruin the video. I can’t get past the attitude they bring. I love the others.

[@BellaVita2017]

Feel like Serina’s scores should be discounted! She was literally saying what’s not to like but gives it a 4…

[@jmanzo2009]

Clearly did it to get a rise out of the other guy

[@makkonen0]

She was definitely scoring based on the guy she was partnered with. She did nothing but stare at him in hopes he would stare back.

[@jorgefausto8138]

You can tell Serina hates life in general. The only way of rating anything is by eating it freshly made.

[@bigploppa154]

nobody also seems to take into account that costcos appeal is that its cheap. that hot dog isnt what it is because its good, its what it is because you get it with a soda for $1.50

[@mastercfromhalo3]

Watching this again after 2 months and I can tell that my man sitting with Serina definitely told the producers he’d rather suck start a shotgun than work with her again 😭

[@pelicanvocalsnew]

I had a good belly laugh at this comment and for that I thank you

[@GreenBananaz]

The woman giving low scores like she’s trying to win a cooking competition 😅

[@yatesy117]

They should definitely put her on Come Dine with Me she'd piss off the other contestants up so much lol

[@GreenBananaz]

@@yatesy117 haha so true! I hate people who play tactics because I KNOW deep down they are enjoying the food and are just mad 😂

[@degausserrr]

most british rating ever. "Actually the gravy is quite nice... I'll give this a 4. what's not to like?"

[@GreenBananaz]

@@degausserrr Haha! Seems logical 🤣

[@jamesmonti3628]

Pretty sure Serina hates food in general...kill joy

[@yatesy117]

Probably has caviar for breakfast she has a weird way of reviewing food says the hotdog is nice wants another bite then gives it a 3???

[@phaniePaq]

Except for mash peas

[@dfa3366]

oh she likes food going in and and mins later going out.

[@JPzizou]

She just knows good food and has high standards

[@jensito6197]

Nah facts 😭

[@VeeLondon1449]

Serina needs to brush her tongue with a toothbrush because her taste buds needs a fresh.. 😂

[@sj8814]

bruh 🤣

[@13dulcie]

Serena's friends must love going to lunch with her. Oh my God I'd probably stab myself in the eyeball if I had to spend any time with her.

[@znamestoby]

literally the most ridicuous commentary lmfao

[@lovemii3kids]

She is definitely a downer

[@13dulcie]

@CG89 Ok sweetheart.💗

[@vivakatrob13]

“I really like it. It’s quite nice.” “I’m gonna give it a 4.” 😅😅

[@Shainnelle]

😂

[@sohamkalzunkar7903]

Serina be like Oh this is good, it has everything and go on giving a score of a SOLID 4.5/10 🤡

[@MrAndywear]

Serena's thoughts: I like it, but I've committed to be miserable.

[@hasnaa2456]

Damn Serina is so negative like girl for the price and quality compared to most restaurants your getting I wouldn’t be talking like that…. Costco is full efficient for my belly and pockets.

[@yatesy117]

I know huge hotdog and unlimited refill drinks £1.50 amazing value. Wish there was a Costco near me ha

[@tiffadaeze17]

Something major that was left out is the prices of Costco food. In America a hotdog and a fountain drink is like $1.50

[@KLa35]

Same price here £1.50

[@chandlerpalmer7498]

“I don’t understand your pallet” at 5:21 - trust us, neither does the rest of the world

[@healingandgrowth-infp4677]

Are you related to chandler from friends by any chance 😂

[@LisaF777]

Costcos has been in the UK for DECADES! Eating at the food court is a must.

[@coyotelong4349]

It would be hilarious if the Costco UK food court sold like jellied eel & mushy peas, with stargazy pie

[@osaruguex]

@@coyotelong4349 i promise you it’s just pizza and chicken bakes, jacket potatoes and chicken burgers😭 i think people that have never had costco food must not have a membership obviously

[@laurensteenkamp7693]

@Lisa F Yes, Costco has been the UK for a long time but... there are only around 30 Costcos in the whole of the UK so the fact that none of the tasters have been to a Costco is not surprising

[@leonbanks5728]

@@laurensteenkamp7693 I've known about it for years as my dad has one near where he lives and my dad is a Costco member.

[@ekamanda84]

Omg IM one of those people 😳....I have never eaten there before lol....probably too full from running around eating all the free samples 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@4rmiceland2cali]

Serina is the exhausting friend

[@elleB324]

Extra cake wrapped in a napkin WITH a goodie bag. That is a peak childhood memory and bravo for bringing it up.

[@samuraibutterfl]

“The cottage pie is huge!” As an American, this made me laugh. I went to Costco yesterday and saw a 20lb cottage pie.

[@sneer0101]

Yeah, and that's one portion for you lot.

[@issat6495]

I live for cottage pie!

[@coyotelong4349]

For a Brit, a 20 pound cottage pie is expensive For an American, a 20 pound cottage pie is heavy 😂

[@samuraibutterfl]

@@lizardlizrn9185 in the uk, Shepherds pie is made with lamb and cottage pie is made with beef. in America, we call it shepherds pie if it’s made with beef. It’s very rare to find the dish with lamb here

[@benjamin_4694]

@@sneer0101 Roughly 1 out of 3 American adults is obese. 1 out of 4 UK citizens is obese. It's, uh... It's not much better us blokes either, mate.

[@benploni7492]

"What's not to like?" She gives it a 4

[@pabiedaisy8164]

😂

[@DisneyAdulting]

Serina is such a kill joy. She doesn’t like anything unless it’s freshly made. Even Gordon Ramsey isn’t as bad as she is. Smh 🤦‍♀️

[@wildmik-wk2iq]

Serina clearly doesn’t understand the rating system or how to be a reasonable human lmao don’t have her back

[@brentwerner6103]

Agreed

[@Sam-ff9bk]

Nice to see some Tudor-era representation from the lady who knows what pigeon tastes like. (It's similar to skylark.)

[@sneer0101]

You do realise people eat wood pigeon right? You clearly live in a bubble of ignorance.

[@samcleal7290]

OMG Tudor-era representation, I'm dead hahaha

[@Christian-pc8ku]

I will say the Costco food in the U.S looks more appetizing than the food here

[@nhitttran]

I wish they mentioned the prices. That’s part of the pull

[@raionnacole7827]

There's always that one person 🙄 🤦🏾‍♀️🤣

[@ThatsEunice]

That one girl gets on my nerves. She must only eat home cooked food.

[@bixby451]

Or plain stuff like beans on toast 😂

[@breet4235]

I think Serina realized that the cake was the last food they were trying so she scored it a 7 🙄 major "too good for this" vibes from her ugh

[@itshellosepi]

I’m gutted I was not in the office for this! Also more Lida joooon! She is wonderful 💖 Godfrey and Lida were so fun 🎉

[@heymikey1981]

Does that girl know that she's rating Costco food and not Ramsay's Kitchen?

[@starkwords]

I have never in my life received a pizza that looked like that at Costco, and at one point Costco pizza Saturday was a monthly event.

[@AlwaysHavingFun951]

I agree

[@shawnm7246]

Different ingredients in teh UK. They have higher food standards than we do in the states.

[@SingDea]

@@shawnm7246 think they’re referring to the sad appearance of that pizza. The pizza I’ve had looks appetizing and like the picture on the menu… theirs looked gross lol

[@carolthomas6334]

As a Costco employee in the UK, this was interesting to watch, thanks. I wish they tried the ice cream though 😋

[@Lashes20032004]

Do you guys partake in the food at work? I think that’s a telltale sign lol.

[@cyrusghanadian5888]

Lida and Godfrey were awesome !

[@mixueer]

Not to dog pile on Serina - genuinely concerned - did she have COVID?? Or Long Covid? Because the fact that others liked things and she consistently didn't makes me worry. I have Long Covid, which is why my brain is going there...

[@thecunninlynguist]

Costco pizza, hot dog, chicken bake are good in a clutch. I do miss the Supreme pizza though

[@SketchyyHD]

Serina must’ve ate food from Gordon Ramsey himself the way she rates.

[@bhavesh7313]

It goes without saying that you know who the kill joy in this video is

[@kreepamehta315]

You guys missed the best option, their jacket potatoes are unmatched!

[@blackextention06]

Costco food is decent! If there was a zombie apocalypse, I'd be living in there!

[@travelswithsi8932]

Brits try Costco? We have had costco for years in the UK

[@SparklyStoner360]

American Costco food is somewhat different and looks far better than what you guys ate! The pepperoni pizza is waaaay better looking and it’s so good. Just ate it yesterday lol. The chicken bake is trash and the super cheap ginormous hot dogs are really good.

[@Khadeijaaa]

I will say our Costco pizza in California looks 10x better than that one 😅 flooded in pepperoni and cheese 🤤

[@SoulChief21]

agreed went for the first time 3 weeks ago and it was to die for

[@SuperDuckyNarwhal]

It's sad that Costco is now actively checking for membership...no card, no pizza for you! Miss the burnt cheese and curled pepperoni on a puffy crust. 🍕

[@jessicamarie8299]

That Indian girl got on my nerves. I bet she can’t even cook while she’s being so judgmental she needs to have several seats. Don’t call her back to this show.

Glad someone said it irritated me a lot doesn't know basic concept of how to score food

[@TJTOPBOY]

Feel sorry for Serina’s fella

[@thatuberrican8745]

You have to go into eating Costco food with the expectation that it isn’t gonna be any kind of culinary sensation. The food is more or less just okay. Sometimes food is just there to fill you up and nothing more.

[@randeebecker2455]

Always one ‘contra’ in every crowd - how would she react if told it was from ‘swank’ place?

[@ruffey1748]

7:29 - I used to be a kid's party entertainer at McDonald's and most parents would bring in one of these sheet cakes from Costco. They never wanted to take the leftovers home, so for two years I probably ate my body weight in Costco sheet cake. No matter the 'flavour' they all taste the same. Powdery icing covered vicky sponge. Also endless happy meal items. The only good thing about that job. And maybe my fellow party team 😁

[@OddVerb]

Costco pizza is unnecessarily dank and I love that. Idk if they have it in the UK, but having it close by is clutch

[@jeffmorse645]

I love the chicken bake. I have literally on the way home from work grabbed one, made a salad at home and been entirely happy with the meal. Cheap as well.

[@bobmohk397]

That one girl is the boujie representative

[@missspell4897]

I would literally not take any restaurant recommendations from the professional food critic over there named serina 😂 or go to one with her. I know people like her and they’re a nightmare to have a meal with. She probably is rude to the staff too and had many people spit in her food lol

[@ramneekkaur2699]

“I don’t- understand your pallet” 💀

[@wallstherb]

Hello! 1. Costco Pizza (now they only offer cheese or pepperoni or 1/2 cheese/pepperoni BUT before Covid there were Veggie Toppings) 2. Chicken Bake 3. Vanilla Frozen Yogurt With Strawberry Fruit Topping 4. Churro 5. BEFORE COVID there was a Chicken Ceasar Salad.

First of all Baked beans doesn’t have bbq in it just tomato n bean Secondly we don’t have it on bread just crispy hard buttered toast And if you haven’t tried it you can speak nothing of it Thirdly we don’t eat Vegemite that is Australia apparently N no one but a few like marmite if that is what you were meaning Fourth and importantly America’s foods are all chemically modified treated n full of sugar So who are you to not assume it isn’t good or nasty food over there You are accustomed to it all Take it from those who aren’t

[@kiekie84]

I was hoping they would also do the ice cream with its strawberries and strawberry sauce and then the churros but otherwise great video

[@allanrose2964]

I don't care for greasy pizza but Costco Pizza is just fine every so often after shopping till you drop at Costco. The dogs are great grab & go food as well. But I can only eat two hot dogs at any time. You have to have a Coke with the pizza to get the full effect!

[@SharonHF]

I’m reside in the the States and I’m yet to try Costco food. I’ve had IKEA.. but lack the membership fee (or room for massive quantities of stuff in my 46sqm apartment 😅 to make it worthy) If a follower in the CT area wants to meet up and let me have the “experience”.. by all means let me know and we can connect! I’ve got free access to Sam’s Club as a Walmart employee if that helps 😇 meeting new peeps is fun..just gotta let my “protector friends” know where I’m headed 😊

Costco Family bundle is the absolute doggy's undercarriage. (currently) £13.99 for full 18" pizza, Full 18" Garlic Bread, 2 Dips and 2 Litre of Pepsi max. Cannae whack it

[@incogneter]

Costco's bakery department is the best part, especially the muffins and choc chunk cookies

[@l.y.1486]

The chicken bake is good, but I refuse to get it a third time.. the 1st one was great, but the second one was just bread after the 1st bite. Great taste though.

Costco isn't anything wild. But they do their food consistently well and for a nice price.
