The vegan meatballs cost $9.99 for 24 meatballs and are packed in a convenient 2-pack with 12 meatballs each.

Select Costco locations across the US are now stocking Beyond Meat’s vegan meatballs.

This is the second Beyond Meat’s product that will be available at the club store after the Beyond Burger was rolled out last September.

The vegan meatballs made from peas and brown rice are non-GMO, soy-free, and gluten-free.

They contain 19 grams of protein per serving and 30% less saturated fat and sodium than traditional Italian-style meatballs.

The meat balls pre-seasoned, pre-rolled and ready to cook, making them perfect for pastas, appetizers, sandwiches, soups and more.

The meat balls retail at $9.99 for 24 meatballs and are packed in a convenient 2-pack with 12 meatballs each.
