How good are these frozen foods?

The sandwich hit Costco shelves late last year and was touted as huge and delicious.
I headed to my local Costco and grabbed four boxes of breakfast sandwiches to taste test and compare.
I cooked each individually wrapped sandwich according to the package instructions and didn’t add any sauces or toppings.

Read on to see the frozen Costco breakfast sandwiches I tried, ranked from worst to best.
It was so good I may have to add it to my morning rotation!
I used the second option, the microwave.

It did look just like the Starbucks version.
The taste:This is where it all fell apart.
The croissant had an artificial butter taste, and the sandwich was overly salty.

The giant egg puck was bland and unappetizing, and the greasy bacon didn’t win me over.
This sandwich was so bad that I didn’t finish it.
These sammies came 12 in a box for $15.49.

I knew I’d be in for a rubbery bite.
The taste:One bite in, and this sandwich tasted like a mouthful of bland bread.
The sausage was spicy but very fatty.
I lamented that the only cooking instructions were, again, microwave ones.
I also liked that I could see an eggnot egg white, which is just nothingness!
The taste:Although I followed the heating instructions, this sandwich was cold in the center.
I heated it some more, which improved things.
The sausage had some nice spice but tasted too fatty.
Overall, this sandwich was too salty and lacked flavor except … salt.

There were eight sandwiches in a box for $14.99.
Once out of the microwave and the packaging, the sandwich appeared a little wet.
After it settled on my plate, however, I got excited.
I saw a nice-looking buttermilk biscuit with egg and sausage.
I was looking for the cheese but realized the cheddar was in the biscuit, not a separate ingredient.
The taste:Wow!
This is one tasty breakfast sandwich, and it would be even better heated up in the oven.
The sausage was flavorful and not fatty.
I like that you get the whole egg (not just white).
The buttermilk biscuit, made with sharp cheddar, was the right amount of crumbly.
I would eat this breakfast sandwich again.
All the flavors melded together into one sandwich I wanted to gobble up.
