Costco may not be top of mind for many shoppers when it comes to buying organic foods, but it might be soon. The warehouse club has surpassed Whole Foods as the top seller of organic food. Costco sells $4 billion in organic foods annually.
We spot-checked Costco’s prices on organic items. Here’s what we found: A 16-ounce container of Earthbound Farm organic spring salad mix cost $4.39 (unit price: 27 cents per ounce) at Costco, while a four-ounce bag of Whole Foods’ 365 brand spring salad mix was $1.99 (unit price: 50 cents per ounce). A two-dozen carton of Costco’s Kirkland Signature Grade A large organic brown eggs was $6.99 (unit price: $3.49 per dozen), while an 18-count carton of Safeway’s O Organics Grade A large organic brown eggs totaled $7.69 (unit price: $5.13 per dozen).
If you’re buying staples such as organic milk on a weekly basis, it may make sense to buy it in bulk since organic milk lasts longer than regular milk. Costco had a three-pack of 64-ounce cartons of Kirkland Signature Organic Whole Milk for $11.49 ($3.83 per carton), while at Whole Foods a single 64-ounce carton of Whole Foods’ 365 brand organic whole milk went for $3.99.
