It's a good place to find American food in France, but the store also sells some specific products tailored to French consumers. Here are a few things you can find at a French Costco:
1. Let's start with the most important thing: the massive aisle of French cheeses.
2. You can find huge pieces of Comté and wheels of Saint-Nectaire, a deliciously stinky soft cheese from Auvergne.
3. Along with gigantic wheels of Brie.
4. If you like your cheese melted, these oven-ready bulk packs of Camembert are for you.
5. And if that wasn't enough to please all the cheese lovers, you can also get some aligot.
6. Looking for booze? They've got you covered with jumbo bottles of French rosé that could last a whole month.
7. If you're feeling extra fancy, there's this bottle of champagne that goes for 1,595 euros (about $1,878).
8. Speaking of booze, you'll also find liquor-infused ice cream.
9. Elsewhere in the store, you can find extra-large odes to chocolate and candy from all over Europe — like Toblerone from Switzerland:
10. And Kinder Bueno, THE best chocolate bar in the whole wide world, IMO.
11. Or even these big tubs of Haribo gummy sharks:
12. One of the greatest finds at French Costco is these giant boxes of canelés — the little vanilla-flavored custard cakes from Bordeaux.
13. They also sell bulk trays of petits fours, so you can treat yourself to a real French apéro.
14. There are also fancy crepes and French chocolate cake mixes, if you're feeling lazy but still want a semi-homemade treat.
15. If you're craving sweets and you don't want to cook at all, there are bulk crepes in the bakery section.
16. Plus lemon meringue pies.
17. Also in the bakery, there are (obviously) French baguettes...
18. And croissants...
19. And madeleines so that shoppers can get their fill of the traditional, super-buttery cakes.
20. You'll also find some French brioche for breakfast.
21. Next to these classics, there is also a delightful specialty from Brittany called kouign amann.
22. And for a savory treat, you can pick up a quiche lorraine — made with lard, onions, and heavy cream.
