Bikaji Khajoor Dry Fruit

The scoop

Spotted a clearance tag on Bikaji Khajoor Dry Fruit at Costco—one of those finds that makes you do a double-take in the snack aisle. If you’ve been curious about premium date-based snacks or you’re already a fan of Bikaji’s Indian sweets and treats, this one’s worth a look.

This is a 17.63-ounce package of Khajoor (that’s dates, for those not familiar with Hindi) mixed with dry fruits from Bikaji, a well-established brand known for traditional Indian snacks and sweets. It’s essentially a date-and-nut blend that skews toward the sweeter side—think natural energy bites before energy bites were trendy. The combination typically includes dates studded with almonds, cashews, and sometimes pistachios, all rolled together into bite-sized portions.

Premium dry fruit mixes at specialty stores often run north of $1 per ounce, so if you’re getting this clearance package anywhere near the $0.70-$0.85 per ounce range, you’re doing pretty well. These make surprisingly satisfying afternoon snacks or pre-workout fuel if you’re tired of the usual protein bar rotation.

My guess on the clearance angle? This could be a seasonal item tied to cultural celebrations, or Costco might be testing the waters with specialty international snacks and deciding inventory turnover isn’t quite there yet. Either way, clearance on specialty items like this usually means limited quantities—if your warehouse still has them today, don’t count on them being there next week.

If you’re into dates or looking to branch out from the same old trail mix, this clearance find is worth grabbing. Have you tried Bikaji products before, or would this be your first dive into date-based snacks?
