Pizza Comparison (old version)

It’s all about math This sort of blew my mind. The math of why bigger pizzas are such a good deal is simple: A pizza is a circle, and the area of a circle increases with the square of the radius. So, for example, a 16-inch pizza is actually four times as big as an 8-inch pizza.

That large pizza has the same area as 2 mediumpizzas (14 inches) and 6.3 smalls (8 inches). To equalthe same amount of pizza as the large, it would setyou back an additional $8.82 and $30.79 respectively….How big is a medium Domino’s Pizza?

Our large 14” pizzas (13” for deep pan pizzas) give you eight individual slices respectively to share amongst your tribe.

The reason lies in the company’s business philosophy. Costco could easily rake in millions more in annual profits by raising prices, but maintaining low prices for hot dogs and other food court eats works as a proven incentive for shoppers.

So in honor of the ever-reliable Costco hot dog, here are 10 fast facts you should know.

• The Costco hot dog and 20-ounce drink combo is $1.50, and has been since 1985.
• Contrary to myth, the hot dog is a quarter-pound 100% beef dog.
• The dog has gotten even bigger since its debut.

In 1985, Costco first introduced its now legendary food court deal: a hot dog and soda for just $1.50. Part of what makes the offer so mythical is that, 35 years later, the price hasn’t budged—despite the fact that the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ CPI Inflation Calculator suggests the price should be around $3.65 today.

In order to simplify our menu and make room for healthier options, we have decided to offer only the all-beef Hot Dog. Sales show this is what the majority of members prefer.

Costco’s hot dogs taste good because they make you feel good One thing all large box stores have in common — they’re huge. As one foodie describes it, Costco dogs avoid corn syrup, fillers, and byproducts (via The Kitchn). Basically, the meat is just all beef in a quick service shape.
