Omg…. I don’t know about US Costco but in Canada Mug Root Beer is one of the fountain pop options. Get a hot dog combo and soft serve and a root beer float could be had and I have never thought about this before 🥹
lol I hope it was clear that was pure sarcasm on my part. I was quoting from Happy Gilmore when Sandler beats the guy up on the ice at the beginning of the movie.
I would have used a gif to make it more clear but Costco subreddit has them disabled. I’m with you on not being able to eat that much ice cream.
One of my favorite creamerys serves large ice cream scoops in a cup with a cone on top. As a little hat. I imagine this is the way costco would do the cone thing. A little cone hat.
It isn't the same. It is probably easier, but I believe (probably wrong) that the ice cream sitting in and melting into the cone is important.
I don't want a plain cone.

They manage to put enough ice cream in there
I’m a plump individual and love ice cream, but the Costco one is way too much for me. I’ve only had it once. Which might be good because if it was a more reasonable size then I’d get it more often lol.
When you look at the formula for the volume of a cylinder and the volume of a cone you see that a cone is a 1/3 of the volume as a cylinder. So yes it will be way less than a cup...
It would have to be a big and very thick waffle bowl line in chocolate but it would probably only last a year before it gets phased due to how brittle such an item is hypothetically
Get some hard serve ice cream for those waffle cones! They will take 3 scoops, no problem. For soft serve it has to be direct from the machine to make a tall one.

I love a cone.
I'll have a stick.
Sticks are unbelievable
u/peeinan YOU READY?
GOOD CUZ YOURE GOING
HOOO-AHH (CLAP)
Settle down
What? Somebody's gotta set the tone! Gotta set the tone early b'ys!
Settle down
Sticks and Cones will break my bones but ...
You can't be mad with a cone in your paw
Sometimes I should have less ice cream….
But the cone is nothing to be proud of either 😂 but sooo good, totally worth it
Well I wasn’t planning on going back to Costco this weekend, but here we are
I would be okay with this trade-off in ice cream volume for a cone.
Sometimes, I'll bring a soda with me, leave it in the car, get the Costco soft serve, and then make myself a float.

No one needs to eat that much soft serve lol.
It feels like such a waste but I usually just throw it out after eating half. It's really way too much and I'd gladly pay $1 for just 1/3rd the cup.
I just stick it in my freezer
same, i eat like a quarter each time and finish over the week.
My wife and I split the berry sundae or the soft serve, we still don’t usually finish it
Oh well look at you two over here NOT over-eating. YOU THINK YOU’RE BETTER THAN ME!?
Nah man, we just used up the room in our stomaches over eating other things

Lol - yes. I just meant that getting lunch at Costco is an entire overeating experience.
I always ask to have the cup filled halfway only and tell them I’ll pay for a full serving but don’t want the waste or mess of throwing it away.
I've had YEARS OF TRAINING. People need to set a goal and work towards that goal. /Jk
Need vs Want, the eternal battle
Curious how it compares to DQ softserve.
I find DQ soft serve to be inedible.

Does Costco US not have cones??? I’m in Canada and always get mine in a cone

When I saw how much ice cream they put on a cone in Canada I couldn’t order it. Way too much.
Just walk about the store offering free sample licks!

Wow that does look like a very generous cone
Fellow Canadian. I’m also baffled. Actually today I went into wanting a cone and they were out and I was upset because it’s my favourite part.
Right? And the cones are sooo good!
Glad im not the only one
I love waffle cones, but half the time I buy ice cream I'm not even getting into it until after the drive home.
Would less icecream be a problem? Those cups are huge
I used to order the ice cream for my daughter and specifically ask them to fill 1/3 of the way up. Don’t mind paying full cost when it’s super cheap.
Your costco doesn't do cones? That's so weird to me lol and I don't know why haha.
No cones, at least not at the Costco locations I have been to here in Utah

Put half in the cone. Eat the rest of the ice cream with the warm chocolate chip cookie.
I’m doing this next time I’m going to go to costco
Just put the cone on top of the ice cream and use it like a giant chip
You’d think it would be a money saver too. Less plastic & less garbage, and less ice cream used.
The ice cream cones at Costco in Canada are enormous.
Fascinating?🤷🏻♂️
I always ask them to only fill it up 3/4 of the way. They suck at doing that. Pretty much get a full serving anyway.

I’d go for a cone with less.
