I Macoritti Italian Mini Bread Sticks

The scoop

Spotted something interesting in the clearance aisle: I Macoritti Italian Mini Bread Sticks have hit markdown status. If you’re a fan of crunchy Italian snacks or need something for your next charcuterie board, this might be worth a look.

This is a 3-pack bundle with each package weighing 18.51 ounces, giving you a total of about 55.53 ounces of breadsticks. These are authentic Italian mini grissini—those thin, crispy breadsticks that snap when you bite them and pair beautifully with cheese, prosciutto, or just about any dip you can think of.

At approximately $0.18 per ounce (depending on your warehouse’s markdown price), this could be a solid deal for imported Italian specialty items, which typically command premium pricing. The real question is whether you’ll actually use nearly 3.5 pounds of breadsticks before they go stale. These are great for entertaining, but if you’re flying solo, you might be eating breadsticks with every meal for a month.

The clearance timing makes sense—we’re heading into summer barbecue season, and Costco often rotates out shelf-stable European imports to make room for seasonal items. The 3-pack format suggests this might have been a special buy that didn’t move as quickly as expected. As with all clearance items, inventory will be hit-or-miss, so if you want them, don’t wait around.

If you regularly host gatherings or you’re a serious charcuterie enthusiast, this is probably worth grabbing. Are you team “dip them in everything” or team “eat them straight from the package”?
