People seeking a tub of mac-and-cheese that, if empty, could hold 100 baseballs, are in luck.

Wholesale retailer Costco is selling a tub of the comfort food for $89.99, and shipping and handling is included if purchased online. (At the writing of this article, it is sold out at Costco.com.) The tub contains 180 servings and has a shelf life of 20 years, according to People.

It's made by Chef's Banquet and comes in a 6-gallon container. The pasta and cheddar cheese servings are in pouches.

Costco is also selling 7-pound buckets of Nutella that cost $22 and is available in stores and online. It's $3 more for the online order.
