Costco wants to make sure that everyone has a very happy Easter indeed. Behold, a 10 lb. chocolate bunny at $140:
It’s from Maud Borup, a company in the Islamic Republic of Minnesota that claims to be both “Women Owned” and “Veteran Owned”.
What will Costco do if they have any of these left? Sell them for kids’ birthday parties? What is the practical occasion on which 10 lbs. of chocolate is useful?
(I searched to see who is supplying them with the actual chocolate and came up empty. They definitely don’t start with beans.)
Separately, some tasteful Easter decorations in the Canterbury Place neighborhood of Abacoa.
No way that’s 10lbs of choc. It might be filled with nuggat or oatmeal. Someone well healed enough needs to try it.
Nothing says Resurrection/Passover quite like plastic dinosaurs.
The paint on that house looks like it is Easter year-round. From the yard sign, a chance for Phil to wear his pink running shoes, if so equipped, and grab a pink T-shirt to wear at woke events:

Looks like a good cause.
Just for fun, looking at this product:

Hard to see ingredients, but if you right click and save the rear image and then open it locally most of it is readable and the image indicates the item is pure, real chocolate (all cocoa butter) and is 150 calories per serving at 151 services: 22,650 calories total. I can believe it is pure chocolate; $14 a pound is rational. It also claims the manufacturer as “Maud Borup Inc” in USA. To me it looks a lot like a mega Palmer chocolate bunny, though. “86% fair trade certified.”
