With the quick changing landscape of tariffs and trade, understanding where your favorite products come from can be one of the smartest Costco shopping hacks. You may be more aware of when to stock up on certain items or alerted to potential price increases.

Here are some Costco products you may not know are imported from Canada.

Canada's maple syrup production accounts for 75% of the world's supply, so it's not surprising that Costco gets its Kirkland Signature Maple Syrup from Canada as well. Not only is this syrup made in Canada, but it's also organic. Buyers should know real maple syrup has a thinner consistency than imitation syrup — that's normal. Additionally, store real maple syrup in the refrigerator after opening.

This hearty lasagna is made with layers of pasta, rich tomato sauce, Italian sausage, beef, and creamy cheese.

It's frozen to preserve freshness and is a popular choice for grilling, baking, or pan-searing.

This luxurious mattress is designed and assembled in Canada by Stearns and Foster.
