The Ultimate Healthy Snack, Now with a New Local Producer
For expats in Japan who miss having fresh, crunchy celery stalks ready in the fridge, this 500g pack from Costco is a lifesaver. We have recently updated our supplier to "Oki Shoten" in Saitama, ensuring the same high quality and crispness you expect.
No more peeling or stringing—just open the bag and enjoy.
Why You’ll Love These Celery Sticks
New Local Supplier: Proudly packed by Oki Shoten in Iruma, Saitama, keeping your veggies as local and fresh as possible.
Pre-Washed & Pre-Cut: These sticks come in a water-filled bag to maintain maximum hydration and crunch. Note: Please discard the water and give them a quick rinse before eating.
The Perfect "Costco" Size: A generous 500g bag that is perfect for weekly meal prep or large families.
Serving Hacks & Dip Ideas
Since our beloved hummus is no longer available, try these other Costco favorites:
Greek Yogurt Dip: Mix thick Greek yogurt with some garlic powder and dried dill for a high-protein, low-calorie ranch alternative.
The Nut Butter Classic: Slather these sticks with almond butter or peanut butter for a nostalgic, energy-boosting snack.
Cheese Pairing: Slice them even thinner and serve alongside a sharp cheddar or a creamy brie for your next wine night.
Smart Ways to Use Every Last Stick
The Mirepoix Base: Celery is the "holy trinity" of cooking. If you have leftovers, finely dice them with onions and carrots to create a flavor base for stews, bolognese, or chicken noodle soup.
Stir-fry Crunch: Add them to a quick shrimp or chicken stir-fry at the very last minute to keep that refreshing "snap" in your meal.
Easy Freezing: If you can't finish the bag, simply chop and freeze. They are perfect for dropping straight into smoothies or morning juices for an extra hit of fiber.
