Smoked Salmon Is No Longer a “Hidden Deal”
Kirkland smoked salmon has quietly crossed into premium territory, climbing from $19.99 to $23.99. That puts it much closer to gourmet food store pricing.
Smoked salmon is often treated as a luxury protein, but many shoppers built it into weekly meals because Costco made it feel affordable. With prices rising, it may make sense to:
- Reserve it for special occasions
- Compare prices at fish markets
- Look for frozen alternatives with better unit pricing
When high-protein foods increase in price, it’s especially important to balance nutrition with long-term financial planning.
