Kirkland Signature Liquid Egg Whites at Costco

Costco sells a 6-carton pack of Kirkland Signature Liquid Egg Whites for $9.49. The box of egg whites can be found in the large refrigerated dairy room that holds the milk and the butter. This location within the warehouse will vary depending on your local Costco.

Costco also sells Egg White Quiches for those looking for additional egg white options.  

Each carton costs $1.58 and contains 1 pound of liquid egg whites.

I don’t know if this is intentional, but 2 of the 6 cartons have light blue text, while the other four 4 have dark blue text.

Why Egg Whites?

Kirkland egg whites are a healthier alternative to whole eggs. They have no fat or cholesterol and are low in calories.

While they can lack flavor compared to whole eggs, they are a great source of protein and are eaten by many who are looking to improve their health.

Easy to Use Egg Whites

When I went through my no egg yolk phase, I discarded the egg yolk when making breakfast. It was always a pain to get rid of the egg yolk while preserving as much egg white as possible.

This liquid egg white from Costco will make life a lot easier for those who can’t or don’t want to eat egg yolks.

Costco Liquid Egg White - Whole Egg Equivalent and Prices

10 Whole Egg Equivalents Per Carton

I had to really examine the box to figure out that there was the equivalent of 60 whole eggs in the entire package. Each serving is 3 tablespoons and is equal to one whole egg with yolk, and each carton has 10 servings. 

 

One whole carton is the equivalent of 10 large eggs with the yolk.  

Costco-Egg-White-Equivalant-Whole-Eggs

15 Egg Whites Per Carton

The most interesting part is that two tablespoons of Costco’s egg whites are equivalent to the egg white of one shelled egg. 

Delicious-Egg-White-Breakfast

If I understand correctly, each carton contains 30 tablespoons and has the egg white of 15 eggs.

Only Slightly More Expensive than Whole Eggs

At $1.58 a carton, they are a touch more expensive than a dozen whole eggs. It’s a small premium to pay to avoid having to separate the egg yolks yourself. 

If you are going for strictly egg whites and have no use for egg yolk, then you are getting egg white from 15 eggs for $1.58. That is a total steal!

Costco Egg White Taste Test

Egg Whites are an Easy and Excellent Substitute for Whole Eggs

At the CFDB household, we have an all-day breakfast policy; we’ll eat eggs for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and we go through eggs quickly. We weren’t going to have any trouble using the egg whites as a substitute in our regular breakfast meals.

How do the Costco Egg Whites Taste?

The texture was no different than your typical egg white, and just like regular eggs, it’s imperative to properly season them. 

There is a flavor difference between a whole egg and egg whites. 

Not as Good as Regular Eggs With Yolk

We both agreed that the liquid egg whites did not taste as good as the egg with the yolk and that it was more bland and neutral in flavor. 

Costco-Egg-White-Breakfast

This is to be expected, considering the creamy egg yolk is removed.

Still Tasty!

While lacking a little flavor, the egg was still tasty and enjoyable. The Costco egg whites integrated into the meal very nicely and didn’t feel out of place. 

Costco Egg White Omelet

The egg whites did a great job of balancing and completing each of our meals. 

Less Cooking Options than Traditional Whole Eggs

One downside to liquid egg whites is fewer traditional egg cooking options. 

You won’t be able to utilize some cooking methods that require egg yolks, such as over-easy, poached, or soft-boiled eggs. 

Liquid egg whites won’t be as tasty or as versatile as regular whole eggs, but they make up for it in nutrition and health benefits. 

 

Pro-Tip: Combine Kirkland Signature liquid egg whites with a whole egg to get the best of both worlds.

Healthy Egg White Recipes

Egg whites can be cooked similarly to whole eggs but often need an additional flavor boost. 

Here are some of my favorite recipes to maximize and use the Kirkland egg whites to their fullest potential.

Egg White FAQ

Can Kirkland Signature Egg Whites Be Whipped?

The packaging states the Kirkland egg whites will be difficult to whip because of the pasteurization process. You will be better off using real egg whites separated from the yolk.

Can you eat liquid egg white everyday?

Yes, egg whites can be eaten every day. Liquid egg whites are low in cholesterol and fat, making them suitable for everyday consumption for those with dietary restrictions. 

Egg whites are an excellent choice for those concerned with cholesterol intake or those looking to lose weight.

Can you drink liquid egg whites?

Final Thoughts

Kirkland Signature Egg Whites from Costco check off many of the boxes I look for in a product. The only downside is that you are sacrificing some taste for quite a bit of nutritional value. 

Otherwise, they are priced right, convenient, and a solid addition to any breakfast meal.

I like that these are cage-free and seem to be a good value. I combine whole eggs with some egg whites to reduce total calories in egg dishes as well as total fat. These work great!

1 thought on “Costco Egg Whites – Kirkland Signature Cage Free”

  1. I have been purchasing Kirkland egg whites for several years and I found the product to be consistent. The last two boxes I purchased the egg whites were cloudy as opposed to clear when previously purchased. Has there been a reformulation, or is there a problem with the product?
