How many people can say a box of mac and cheese inspired their marriage? Newlyweds Jessica and Brandon Brown first met in the boxed pasta aisle in a Costco store in Waipahu, Hawaii. According to Jessica, the spark ignited shortly after she’d finished recording an Instagram Story on whether or not she should buy a box of mac and cheese.
(A very valid wish, I might add.)
Once she finished filming, her husband-to-be approached her and said: “It’s good for you. It’s cheese — and it’s Costco.”
The two exchanged numbers and had their first date three months later at a local restaurant where they spent hours talking, laughing, and watching sports on one of the restaurant’s TVs.
In hopes of savoring the moment, Jessica pulled out her phone and took a picture of Brandon reaching for a box of the cheesy stuff. She captioned the photo with: “Sometimes I️ take him back to where it all started … so he knows I️ can return him if he acts up 😂 #NoReceipt,” completely unaware that Brandon was going to propose to her that night.
“We didn’t really think we were going to do it, and we did,” Jessica said. “By the time we got to the aisle, there were different employees walking by congratulating us. Customers were shopping and laughing, taking pictures. Everyone was super-nice.”
Now, according to the company’s Facebook page, the couple sends their “Sunday Funday” grocery shopping in bulk, and Costco fans are loving it. (The post has received more than 15,000 reactions!)
We love love — especially when it’s cheesy.
