The Tinned Fish Company Alton Brown Calls One of His 'Favorite Things' Is Now at Costco & Shoppers Give It an "A+++"
Alton Brown knows a good ingredient when he sees it. So when the Peabody Award-winning TV personality, author, filmmaker, food scientist, and all-around culinary mastermind calls something one of his “favorite things,” it’s worth paying attention to. Last year, Brown took to Facebook to proclaim his love for this TikTok-viral tinned fish company, declaring it among his favorites and specifically highlighting the sardines as his top pick. “Love them all, but the anchovies are a secret weapon in many of my sauces and dips,” Brown wrote on Facebook.
Now, Costco shoppers are being treated with a chance to discover what all the hype is about, because Fishwife has finally made its way onto the wholesale retailer’s warehouse shelves.
Costco fan account @costco_doesitagain on Instagram shared the find, and shoppers are beyond excited.
One commenter wrote, “They’ve had them in Colorado for a few weeks. So good!” Another added, “A+++ for this beautiful packaging.”
The post doesn’t disclose the price of the tinned fish, but it looks like the package includes three 3.2 oz cans of the brand’s Albacore Tuna in Spicy Olive Oil. A single package of this tuna goes for almost $7 on Amazon.
If you’re new to Fishwife, the female-founded company got its start on Shark Tank back in 2023 and became a viral hit almost instantly, with people praising the quality of the product as well as loving the packaging and the brand’s commitments to ethical sourcing and partnerships with certified sustainable suppliers. If you don’t have a Costco membership, you can also shop Fishwife online as well as on Amazon.
We’re not sure exactly which warehouses are currently stocking this deal, but commenters on Instagram said they have seen it in Southern California and Colorado. If you’re a Costco member, you might wanna swing by your local warehouse to see if the deal is available in your area.
