World’s BEST Costco?! 24 Hours Eating ONLY Costco Food in Taipei Taiwan

[@jlin7724]

Fun fact: Costco branch with highest sales volume in the world is in Taichung. Top 10, 4 are in Taiwan. According to local news April.

[@intermsofreality]

Went to looks this up because I was surprised to hear Taiwan had 4 Costcos. Turns out there are actually 14 Costco locations operating in Taiwan. Wow.

[@Bakstrp]

24 million people live there so

[@jluuuuuuuu]

The costco in taichung is busy even on the weekday mornings!!

[@eile4219]

Taiwan Costco seems top tier. The good thing is they are starting to bring some of the same stuff to US.

[@fruiitpunchsamurai2158]

Love the Costco run. Wish the US Costco carried more fun products like these

[@rheaa1400]

Me to my husband: "Hon, We need to go to Taiwan!" Husband: "Why?" Me: "To go to Costco!"

[@SiGMAinc]

Pissed your husband off

[@carlakinstley9255]

🤣

[@ootts456]

Just go to China they have costco too

[@Intranetusa]

@ootts456 Mainland China requires visa approvals for Americans and has a bunch of restrictions. Taiwan (Republic of China) allows American passport holders to enter without a visa. Going through mainland Chinese immigration is not an easy or pleasant experience for Americans (probably due to rising tensions).

Cus Costco rules

[@bence]

“I just need to buy food for today and tomorrow” proceeds to buy a weeks worth of food! 😂

[@TebiCr]

😅

[@JamesPidkowa]

His budget is crazy for food 😂

[@Robert-uq5ew]

Right😂

[@denlih]

Looks like there are much more delicious food to choose from at Taiwan Costco. I miss Taiwanese street food a lot and always eager to come back to my home country for food in the near future. Thanks for sharing. And you are so lucky that you can visit Taiwan more often than me.

[@stephennicholson1726]

i would never leave . They need to have some of this in the USA

[@tommystix87]

Taste like American apple juice? Mike you were literally drinking Treetop an American company founded in Washington 😆 🤣

[@khanstudios675]

Watching this whilst having chicken Biryani ... hahha can't make me hungry this time Mikeyyyyy 😅

[@GregWilmoth]

Who is ready for a trip to Costco?… this guy!

[@maeve4686]

We all know, Costco in the U.S. pretty much is limited. Just like McDonald's here vs worldwide McD's.... we're such a diverse culture, yet products keep us limited in food & drinks, electronics, etc...

[@ginNjus]

😲 wow...the selection is incredible.

[@Yarrowplant]

I always love seeing your videos You always radiate a beam of happines with every word, your life seems so fun. I hope that your travels are not too tiring!

[@kennyk8257]

Those wings in the bag is my favourite taiwanese costco item, followed closely by their sushi.

[@roseraiken6627]

Love watching Mike shopping, he's like a kid in a candy store lol

[@gbdtkimo]

ah it looks like Taipower Building at 0:02. My parents lived near there. The Gongguan Night Market is there, too. You picked a good place.

[@peterequations]

I studied at 古亭國小。didn’t realized it’s there until you say it

[@vincentchang2763]

so?

[@HCoRE8]

I like the music in this one. It’s so soothing.

[@ChinaDollTravels]

I love going to Costco for their food samples and going to the food court too

[@AimeeCVaj]

Hi Mike! Hello from Cali. Thanks for sharing your experiences. TBH, I never considered visiting Taiwan but after watching this video, I want to visit it now and checkout Costco too 😁😛

[@serious_filip522]

Taipei is amazing. Wish I was there. Food looks awesome as always!

[@st2826]

I just couldn’t cope with the textures of a lot of these foods 😵‍💫

[@gailsfoodandstuff]

I’m eating a half dozen jumbo meal crabs while watching your video

[@Crosshill]

been having trouble eating again so good thing i got a whole lotta these videos saved up

[@jacquelineldinh]

I want to go Taiwan to go to costco now xD

[@grumpy-kun996]

I swear all that rich food you were eating made my gout flare up!

[@mommunson]

You know they tell you don't go to a store hungry 😂😁🤟

[@kayci27]

We need this Costco in the states lol

[@SamoriHarper]

Great video Mikey!

[@huiostheoukaisoteros]

Did not expect you to find poffertjes in a Costco in Taiwan! Dutch delicacy.

[@tommytube268]

I want Tiger Prawns at my Costco in New Jersey!!!

[@bailey32brooks]

umami mike is back

[@謝旻庭-g1v]

好市多東西很多 但不容易迷路 比某個被當成電影名的市場好多了

[@neutral6941]

It looks delicious.

[@battiekoda]

Also, Mikey, love the Juneau shirt! I used to live in Fairbanks!

[@battiekoda]

@JamesPidkowa I realize you did the douchy, "jk" thing, but that's not nice. I'm dealing with some memory issues, so anything that I can connect to, gives me a bit of, "yay"! Please, try to realize that some of us are really struggling and just trying to connect, however we can.

[@JamesPidkowa]

@@battiekoda It was a joke I’m very sorry if I offended you in anyway Way or cause you any stress Was not my intention

[@StreetFoodVietNamhot]

Amazing, thank you

Where has your lovely Bride been.? We need a cameo from her!

[@battiekoda]

16:03, love the piece that looks like an upsidedown, "merrr'. 🤣

[@phamcuong9183]

That’s mapao tofu should be heated directly on the pan to reduce the water content. Also, it looks like it would taste great if adding some minced beef.

[@OmegaMegalodon]

I wish we have a Costco in Singapore.

[@caroldocherty6810]

Wish Germany had such a variety in ready meals.

[@s-7335]

Hot Wings "Buffalo Wings" should be first of all Crispy!!! then, tender. Never soggy!

[@IamnotJokic]

Always remember that this man grew up eating intestines and though sushi was gross 😂 truly a villager

[@victorlui5955]

Mike Chen eats a lot. 😊

[@Karin5461]

Currently Taiwan is bracing for Tropical Storm

[@minjearcai6483]

There are 4~5 typhoons in Taiwan every year , It'll be fine, don't worry , It's just daily life for us 👌👌

[@willycheesesteak30]

4 trotters? I saw 5 in that clip

[@d3neu]

The hot dogs and food court might be worth the membership. Never shop there i dont need 88 liter of dish soap.😂😂😂 damn i might be novice sushi snob now

[@Robert-uq5ew]

Right, we only buy gas and hot dogs then get gas again💩 😂

[@jtaco66]

But then you wouldn’t have to buy dish soap for years. It’s not like it goes bad

[@anemoniehayward871]

What kind of mushrooms are those in the fish soup??? The thin dark ones?

[@wonderchild53]

Mike, thanks for sharing...!!!!!

[@slickwunbanghouse7257]

Man's first person I've ever heard excited about cucumber on pizza

The things you do for love!

World’s BEST Costco or just your favourite?

[@miker.3623]

This may sound like a silly question but...Does anyone know how many stomachs Mike has?

[@injaeceesworld]

5th here 😂. Those look so yummy 😍. Sending love from India ❤❤❤

[@alvinbuana5905]

Hey guys. For some people who says things like , Mike isn't being genuine anymore, or he only post good stuff or why is Mike not giving a proper review, only like UUHHMAZING or UHHMAMI or things like that. Let me tell you why. Mike Chen has preivously said that if he doesn't like the food he eats or the place he goes to, he will not post it. The reason is that he knows that businesses even small business work so hard and doing their best to get going, so he does not want ruin their business with his video. Although, things can't be the same when he reviews fast food, or supermarket food or Costco or convenience store. that is a different story. For people who ask me when did he said that. Well he said it in the 4 years ago video called :STEAMING Dim Sum + BEST & WORST Foods I've Ever Had". In that video, In minute 15:36 he talked about why he doesn't upload or showcase the food he dislikes

[@ImeanwhatIsay79]

He got some chitlins from Costco.😂

[@Alma-wb9gy]

Why can’t we have some of those stuff in our NJ Costco?😭 Thanks for sharing!

[@michaelshen9717]

When mikey started talking about how he likes mapo tofu, I felt like he was talking about something other than mapo tofu.

[@karenwatanabe1175]

Watching while eating instant noodles and imagining all the flavors of the food mentioned.🥲

[@mansionman6162]

The intestines looked amazing! NOT!😂😂😂😂😂

[@anjelahintz9474]

Yea agreed ick

[@mbank3832]

Costcos in Asia are just better than those in Americas. Ironically it’s an American company but Asian counterparts just in higher class

[@Sakja]

Lots of Asian retailers in Asia are much better than in the US because of the work ethic Asians have. If we had a good work ethic, we would be doing so much better.

[@alexchainey.]

Just like KFC restaurants.

[@mbank3832]

@@alexchainey. just fast food in general. Like McDonald’s, all they have in the US as a special is a McRib but in Japan, they have special meal for many occasions

[@avltrees1558]

American Costco has way better pizzas tho… In Asia Costco pizzas are shite

[@mbank3832]

@@avltrees1558 well I don’t care about pizza so you can have it lol. Speaking of food court in Costco, they have many variety of items too. You can see on on other videos

[@SterkenburgX]

Are costco memberships good for every country?

[@slucas6303]

Yes

[@JamesPidkowa]

Yup

[@Seanaaayy]

whats the umami count on this one boys?

[@loriannscott9150]

Wahooooo alaska shirt! 😍 From anchorage alaska!

[@MaskedRiderChris]

If ever I got a Costco membership, would it extend to overseas if ever I went to Taiwan? Because if it did, that would give me even more reason to do both of those things.

[@HsinyaYang]

Yes, you can use your Costco membership worldwide.

[@Twintwo56]

Yes indeed!

[@brettm3431]

to help me and others its like 30taiwan dollars to 1 american dollar so don't freak out at the prices but handtogod i wish my costco did sell wings like it sells their rotisserie chicken

[@kikaykimy]

I was wondering about this and was about to ask in the comments section coz I thought they’re in USD coz they use the generic dollar sign! 😅

[@OrRoZor2]

my man! thank you :D i was just wondering how the hell they are 400+ dollars

[@momomomo6527]

It's 32 to 1, but more like 34 to 1, because tax is already included in the prices you see.

[@neogalt2775]

Meanwhile in the US Costco...☹They have seafood pizza; we don't even have combo anymore. Anyone else notice they cutback on the samples too?

[@Kailaswanson]

Chicken bakes from Costco are my favorite

[@battiekoda]

One last thing, I wish I could find this stuff where I am!!! 🤤😭

[@shanedixon2511]

that was a really small cost co you got that rice from never seen one that small

[@brassz24]

That chicken in a bucket looked pretty pink inside...

[@samcha9448]

Mikey, please do a fast once in a while. I want you to be around for a long time!

[@grace333]

The rice burger is kind of like the Mos Burger you can buy in Taiwan

[@grace333]

We always bring instant noodles back to the US. The ramen in Taiwan is superb

I applaud people who eat tendon on purpose. When I get a bite of it, unless it's been pressure cooked for hours, I gage and the rest of my meal is ruined.

No tendon or Cartlidge for me. Asians would turn their noses if they saw how much I leave on a chicken drumstick.

[@jdkgcp]

Mikey eating wings like it's the first time he ever had them. I've never even seen a person who has no clue on how to eat chicken wings before. That was both baffling and cringe at the same time.
