One Redditor shared that if the fish sticks aren’t restocked at Costco, it would be a significant loss for his family. “I’ve been feeding my 5 year old these for the last 4 years,” user FindSal commented. “It would be a real shame if these went…” Other commenters on the post, particularly those with children, echoed that disappointment. “These things are 42% of my 4 year olds protein intake,” another person wrote.
There is seemingly no indication that these popular fish sticks will be discontinued at any other Costco locations in the U.S., which means only those in Superior, Colorado may have to find a comparable fish stick alternative. However, if you know all of the possibilities of what an asterisk on a Costco price tag actually means, then you’re aware that this symbol appearing on the price tag of these particular fish sticks may actually mean a much less severe fate than what some are fearing. Some items at Costco that have asterisks on their price tags are simply undergoing a packaging change and nothing more. However, only time will tell what happens to The Ultimate Fish Sticks in Superior, Colorado.
