Browns' Todd Monken explains reason behind missing NFL head coach group photo
Todd Monken was really looking forward to his first picture day as the head coach of the Cleveland Browns, when all 32 coaches were scheduled to appear in Phoenix at the NFL annual league meeting this week.
However, Monken never made it to the group photo, and Cleveland.com’s Mary Kay Cabot found out a haircut was to blame.
Monken set up a haircut specifically for the photo Monday, and he believed he timed the situation perfectly, writing in his agenda that the photo was scheduled for noon Pacific time in Phoenix.

But when Monken ran into Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen, he learned the photo was already taken.
It wasn’t that Monken was late. Instead, a coaches meeting, which he skipped, let out early, and they decided to take the photo with all the coaches assembled. Well, not all the coaches.
BROWNS OWNER GIVES OPTIMISTIC OUTLOOK FOR INJURY-RIDDLED DESHAUN WATSON
Monken wasn’t the only coach not in the photo, though. Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay was also absent from the photo.
While Monken may have missed the picture, he hasn’t missed sharing his thoughts about his quarterback depth chart heading into his first season on the job in Cleveland.
All eyes are on Monken and his staff choosing an eventual starter for the Browns, whether it be veteran Deshaun Watson, who could be on track to return in 2026; Shedeur Sanders; or Dillon Gabriel.
With the Browns’ offseason program beginning April 7, Monken was asked if he has a QB1 in mind. While he didn’t name the depth chart order, he did note that the workload won’t be an even split for the quarterbacks who participate.
"I don’t expect the reps to be divided equally," Monken said on Tuesday, per the Akron Beacon Journal.
That would mean Monken does have an order in mind for his quarterbacks, though he noted he wasn’t yet ready to say who sits atop the list. However, Monken said he and the staff will go off "basically what we’ve seen in the past and where the year ended last year."
Based on the three quarterbacks, Sanders would likely have the upper hand. Watson was still recovering from his Achilles injury, and ex-head coach Kevin Stefanski had Sanders start the remaining seven games of the season after Gabriel struggled before suffering an injury.
Sanders’ earned his first win against the Las Vegas Raiders.
But it’s all speculation until the Browns’ program begins next week.

Rogan warns of US ‘population collapse’ due to toxic chemicals and delayed parenthood tank birth rates
Podcaster Joe Rogan spoke with epidemiologist Shanna H. Swan, PhD on Tuesday about how chemical and cultural factors are destroying America’s birthrate.
Swan, an environmental epidemiologist and author of "Count Down," spoke with Rogan about how widespread exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals in plastics, food, water, and everyday products is contributing to declining fertility in modern society.
Rogan noted that treatments like IVF have become an increasingly commonplace topic, particularly as "older people that are, you know – they put their careers aside in their 30s, they decided now it's time to have kids. They're worried that it's too late."
"But listening to you talk about it, it seems like that's only one part of the issue and not the big part," Rogan said. "The big part seems to be that we're being poisoned, and we're doing it by virtue of our modern world that we live in where so much of your life relies on plastic."
MORE AND MORE GEN Z WOMEN SAY THEY DON’T WANT KIDS. AS A YOUNG MOM, HERE’S WHAT THEY GET WRONG
Swan proceeded to tell Rogan that "fertility is in the toilet" in modern societies to the point where it was once the norm for couples to have five children in the 1960s, but now in places like South Korea, that number has plummeted to about 0.88 children per couple on average.
"They’re in danger of complete population collapse," Rogan said.
Swan noted that many articles have spoken about the issue, but very few are willing to mention the role that exposure to toxic chemicals plays not only in harming human fertility, but that of other species as well.
"Animals are not choosing to have their children later or to delay childbearing," she warned.
"They have big careers," Rogan joked sarcastically. "Beavers are trying to make dams. They don't have time for children."
EX-META BOSS SHERYL SANDBERG RIPS TRADWIFE TREND AS 'SEXIST,' HARMFUL TO WOMEN
One study they spoke about indicated alligators are being impacted by chemical pollution to the point it has altered their genitals to be abnormally small and made it so their eggs are less durable, parallel to increasing human issues with testosterone and fertility.
"It completely makes sense," Rogan said. "But what doesn't make sense is how little attention that's being paid."
He continued, "You would think that in a society that is fa- I mean America is also facing a potential population collapse. People don't think about that, but our reproduction numbers we're not reprodu- Yeah. They're down quite a bit, and they're not at the level that we need in order to keep our population."
"It's the — you know, the normal shape of the population is like this right?" Swan said as she made a pyramid shape with her hands. "So this is up here, not very many people, and down here, lots and lots of people."
"Lots of people are living longer," she continued. "But few are down here, and then what that means is the ones down here are supposed to support the ones up here – "
"—But there’s not enough of them," Rogan said, completing her sentence.
"But there’s not enough of them," she agreed.
Rogan marveled at how widespread this issue is, noting that they had discussed these issues 5 years before, and yet very little has been done in the intervening years to address them. But this set of issues, he said, affects all humanity.
Wisconsin mother stabs teen daughter to death to 'protect' her from Elon Musk: authorities
A Wisconsin mother on drugs allegedly stabbed her 14-year-old daughter to death and told police she ended the child's life to protect her from billionaire tech executive Elon Musk.
Tyiece Oninski, of the Town of Turtle in Rock County, contacted authorities on March 20 and confessed to killing her daughter, Kuren Rein, the night before and that she then attempted suicide, according to a criminal complaint, WMTV reported.
During the call, which lasted about 13 minutes, Oninski said she killed the girl to "protect her from somebody else," later saying she wanted to protect her daughter from Musk, according to the complaint.
PENNSYLVANIA MAN ACCUSED OF STABBING 3-MONTH-OLD BABY AFTER TALKING 'SACRIFICE'
When she was asked if she needed an ambulance, Oninski said she needed a hearse instead.
"She’s dead, honey. She needs a hearse," Oninski explained on the call.
Police responded to the home and found the teen girl dead from multiple stab wounds inside the home, and a knife and sheath were found nearby.
Oninski also had cuts to her neck and wrists from her suicide attempt.
Investigators also reported discovering a partial bare footprint inside the home, later finding that Oninski’s left foot was stained with what appeared to be blood.
Oninski was transported to the hospital and tested positive for benzodiazepines, amphetamines, and THC in her blood.
At one point, as she was in the hospital, she asked a deputy if her name was in the news, and was disappointed when she was told it was not.
A GoFundMe page started to support family members after the loss of the 14-year-old girl has raised more than $17,000 as of Tuesday night.
"We are coming together to support a young man who has just lost his sister in a devastating and unthinkable way at the hands of their own mother," the fundraiser reads. "No one should have to face something like this, especially at such a young age. As he navigates this overwhelming grief, we want to ease the burden of funeral expenses so he can focus on healing and remembering his sister."
"She was loved deeply and will be missed beyond measure. Her life mattered, and she deserves to be honored with dignity and care," it added.
Contributor for far-left outlet calls for 'wiping out Israel,' says Israelis 'mustn't feel safe'
A contributing writer for the far-left publication Drop Site News called for "wiping out" Israel and urged his followers not to make Israelis "feel safe."
Palestinian journalist Abubaker Abed, a self-described "accidental war correspondent" whose work is published by Drop Site, took to social media Monday with a post calling for the complete elimination of the Jewish state.
"Wiping out Israel off the planet is not enough revenge. Israelis mustn’t feel safe anymore. Haunt them and go after them where they go. These terrorist parasites must be removed from our planet," Abed posted on Instagram.
ISRAEL DEFENSE FORCES SUSPENDS BATALLION FROM DEPLOYMENT OVER ‘INAPPROPRIATE’ INCIDENT WITH CNN CREW
Drop Site co-founder Ryan Grim directed Fox News Digital to a statement saying Abed’s message does not represent the organization’s editorial position but stopped short of condemning the anti-Israel rhetoric.
"We also are never going to police the language of anyone who survived a genocide," Grim wrote on X.
Drop Site, primarily known for its anti-Israel coverage of the Gaza war, bills itself as a "a non-aligned, investigative news organization dedicated to exposing the crimes of the powerful — particularly in overt and secret conflicts where the U.S. government is playing a key role."
It has money from the George Soros-funded Open Society Foundations, which gave Drop Site a $250,000 grant in 2024 to establish a Middle East desk, according to a listing on Open Society's website.
The Washington Free Beacon also reported Soros' money was funneled to Drop Site through the Social Security Works Education Fund.
Trump signs executive order overhauling mail-in voting in major election integrity push
President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed a sweeping executive order targeting mail-in voting and voter eligibility, calling the move a major step toward restoring confidence in U.S. elections.
Speaking from the Oval Office, Trump said the order is focused on "voter integrity and Mail-In ballots" and on "stopping the massive cheating that’s gone on."
"We’re going to be signing an executive order," Trump said. "It’s, I believe it’s foolproof… I think it’s very obvious what’s said."
The order directs federal agencies to work with states to compile lists of eligible voters using federal citizenship and identity data, while also instructing the U.S. Postal Service to develop new safeguards for mail-in ballots, including barcode tracking and verification measures.
Under the order, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) working with the Social Security Administration and other federal databases, will create and share "State Citizenship Lists" with state election officials.
The lists are intended to identify individuals confirmed to be U.S. citizens who will be at least 18 years old by the time of a federal election and who reside in that state.
Those lists are to be updated and transmitted to states ahead of federal elections, according to the order.
The order also directs the attorney general to prioritize investigations and potential prosecutions involving officials or others who issue ballots to individuals not eligible to vote in federal elections, as well as those involved in the "printing, production, shipment, or distribution of ballots" to ineligible voters.
SCOTUS CONSERVATIVES SIGNAL READINESS TO CURB LATE-ARRIVING MAIL BALLOTS
On mail ballots, the executive order calls on the postmaster general to initiate a rule-making process within 60 days. Proposed changes include requiring ballots to be clearly marked as official election mail, including a unique Intelligent Mail barcode or similar tracking technology, and undergoing Postal Service design review.
The order also outlines a system under which states would notify USPS if they plan to use mail-in or absentee ballots and provide lists of eligible voters, allowing the Postal Service to maintain participation records tied to ballot distribution.
Trump framed the changes as a direct response to what he described as longstanding vulnerabilities in voting by mail.
NOEM BACKS SAVE AMERICA ACT, SLAMS 'RADICAL LEFT' OPPOSITION TO VOTER IDS AND PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP
"The cheating on mail-in voting is legendary," he said. "It’s horrible what’s going on."
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said the administration is pushing for a system that ties each ballot to a trackable envelope.
"If you voted by mail, you will have it on the envelope," Lutnick said. "There’ll be a million envelopes… and you’ll be able to know exactly correctly, that citizens voted."
Trump said additional election-related measures, including voter ID and proof of citizenship requirements, are also under consideration.
"We’d like to have voter ID, we’d like to have proof of citizenship… we’re working on that," he said.
He also argued that opposition to such measures is politically motivated.
"The only people that don’t want to do voter ID are people that cheat," Trump said.
Trump acknowledged the order could face legal challenges but said he believes it will withstand them.
"I don’t know how it can be challenged," Trump said after signing the order. "You may find a rogue judge… but that’s the only way that could be changed."
The executive order states that voting in federal elections is reserved "exclusively for citizens of the United States" and argues that additional safeguards are necessary to "maintain public confidence in election outcomes." It also says that ballot identifiers such as barcodes can help ensure that only eligible voters receive and cast ballots.
Within minutes of Trump signing the order, top elections officials in Oregon and Arizona pledged to sue, arguing the president was illegally encroaching on states’ authority to run elections, according to The Associated Press.
Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes said the state’s vote-by-mail system, originally designed by Republicans, is now used by about 80% of voters.
Arizona does not need the federal government to determine voter eligibility, and federal data is not always reliable, Fontes said.
Trump cast the issue in much broader terms.
"If you don’t have honest voting," he said, "you can’t have really a nation."
Man charged in 'particularly heinous' killing of DC resident found bound and set on fire in ritzy area: police
A man has been arrested in the killing of Syed Hammad Hussain, a 40-year-old Northwest Washington resident found dead inside his condominium in the city's ritzy Logan Circle neighborhood in February, in what police describe as a "particularly heinous" case involving a robbery, a violent assault and a fire set after his death.
Rico Rashaad Barnes, 36, of Northwest D.C., was arrested Monday and charged with first-degree murder while armed in Hussain’s killing, authorities said. Police have identified a second suspect, who is already in custody on unrelated charges and is expected to be charged in the case.
The killing occurred in the 1400 block of Rhode Island Avenue NW, a well-trafficked area in the Logan Circle area known for its restaurants and high-end residential buildings.
"This was a particularly heinous case," Interim Metropolitan Police Chief Jeff Carroll said during a Tuesday news conference. "Mr. Hussain was found suffering from blunt force trauma and thermal injuries inside of his apartment."
Firefighters responding to reports of smoke around 3:30 a.m. on Feb. 11 entered Hussain’s apartment, extinguished a small fire and found him unconscious and not breathing. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner later ruled the death a homicide caused by blunt force trauma and strangulation. Investigators determined the fire had been set after Hussain’s death.
Court documents obtained by Fox News Digital detail the violent sequence of events.
According to a 27-page affidavit reviewed by Fox News Digital, surveillance footage shows Hussain entering his apartment building around 1:30 a.m., followed closely by two men.
"The video shows two suspects appearing to follow Mr. Hussain into the building," Commander Kevin Kentish of the department’s Criminal Investigations Division said Tuesday. "Shortly thereafter, the suspects knocked on the door, and Mr. Hussain allowed them inside."
Once inside, investigators say, the encounter escalated.
Video and witness statements, police said, revealed that Hussain was assaulted in the building’s lobby, struck and knocked to the ground before being forced toward his apartment. Detectives believe he was then dragged or carried inside, where the attack continued out of view of cameras.
When emergency crews later entered the apartment, they found Hussain lying face down with his wrists and ankles bound. Blood was visible on floors, walls and furniture, according to investigators.
The autopsy found multiple blunt force injuries, including skull fractures, as well as evidence of ligature strangulation. Burns to Hussain’s body were determined to have occurred after his death. Investigators allege the killing took place during a robbery.
The apartment had been searched, with drawers opened and items missing, including electronics, jewelry and cash. Authorities said that $50,000 worth of items were stolen from the condo.
"Video evidence was key in this case," Kentish said, adding that detectives spent "countless hours" reviewing footage from inside the building and surrounding areas.
That video trail revealed that the suspects left the building around 2:30 a.m. carrying multiple bags. Detectives tracked them across Northwest Washington using surveillance cameras and footage obtained with help from Metro Transit Police.
The suspects were seen walking along Rhode Island Avenue, then boarding a Metrobus and traveling toward the Georgia Avenue corridor before continuing by foot, according to investigators.
Through that process, police identified Barnes as one of the suspects.
Court documents say detectives matched surveillance images with police records and witness identifications.
A second suspect, identified in court documents as Alphonso Walker, was also linked to the crime through surveillance footage, witness statements and GPS data from an ankle monitor, which placed him in the area during the timeframe of the killing.
Barnes was arrested March 30 by members of the Capital Area Regional Fugitive Task Force.
Police said they do not believe there are additional suspects.
Investigators said they do not believe Hussain had a prior relationship with the suspects before the day of the killing.
Carroll praised the work of homicide detectives and partner agencies involved in the case, calling it "strong detective work."
"On behalf of the entire Metropolitan Police Department, I want to express my deepest sympathies to Mr. Hussain’s family and his friends," Carroll said. "We know that this news does not ease the pain that you’re feeling, but we hope it does bring some level of closure."
Barnes remains in custody as the case proceeds in D.C. Superior Court.

New ‘Supergirl’ star braces for backlash, believing women face scrutiny for 'simply existing' in franchises
"Supergirl" star Milly Alcock said she’s bracing for public backlash ahead of the film’s June premiere because women in fan-favorite franchises often face scrutiny for "simply existing."
In a Vanity Fair article released alongside the film’s latest trailer, Alcock discussed the pressure of helming a beloved DC property.
She said her time on "House of the Dragon," the "Game of Thrones" spinoff that launched her career, helped prepare her for the intense spotlight.
'SUPERMAN' DIRECTOR JAMES GUNN ADDRESSES 'SUPERWOKE' BACKLASH FOR HIS MOVIE
"It definitely made me aware that simply existing as a woman in that space is something that people comment on," Alcock said of her experience across both fan-heavy franchises.
"We have become very comfortable having this weird ownership of women’s bodies."
Alcock said she’s been having "crazy dreams" about standing before a tsunami, which she links to fears about leading a major superhero film. Despite her concerns, Alcock said audience reactions are out of her hands.

"Of course I’m scared," said Alcock. "Of course, I want people to like me and the movie. But, ultimately, it’s out of my control."
The latest "Supergirl" trailer has already racked up nearly 2 million views on YouTube within its first three hours. It features a cameo by actor David Corenswet, who starred alongside Alcock in the latest "Superman" film.
'SUPERMAN' ACTRESS VALERIE PERRINE DEAD AT 82
Alcock noted that after appearing in the smash-hit "House of the Dragon," she initially swore she’d never act in another large franchise. That changed after she was unemployed for nearly a year and feared her career was "over at 22."
Alcock said she "bullied" herself into auditioning for "Supergirl" and ended up bagging the part. She also responded to criticism from veteran directors, including Martin Scorsese, who have expressed dislike of the superhero genre.
"Whenever a new wave comes along, there’s going to be criticism towards it," said Alcock. "Not every film is for everyone. The beauty of art is that you can be selective about your taste."
Alcock is originally from Australia and appeared in the 2025 Netflix miniseries "Sirens." She joined the "Game of Thrones" universe as Rhaenyra Targaryen in the debut season of "House of the Dragon."
"Supergirl" hits theaters this June.
Family ramps up search for missing coffee shop owner, mother of two, urges public to check cameras
The family of a missing Oakland business owner is ramping up search efforts across the East Bay, calling on residents to review security footage as volunteers and law enforcement widen the hunt.
About 60 people from the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office joined the search, which began around 8 a.m., with mutual aid teams from Contra Costa and Marin counties also assisting, as well as volunteers, according to KTVU.
Amy Hillyard, 52, disappeared March 25 around 2 p.m. after she was seen walking along Radnor Road in Oakland’s Cleveland Heights neighborhood, according to authorities. Nearly a week later, her whereabouts remain unknown.
"The search to bring Amy home continues, and we remain hopeful," family friend Sarah Wachs told Fox News Digital. "We’ve had hundreds of people come together to look for Amy."
BELOVED COFFEE SHOP OWNER, MOTHER OF TWO DISAPPEARS NEAR HOME, URGENT SEARCH UNDERWAY
Oakland police said Monday Hillyard's family had asked for another search, SFGate reported.
Authorities have classified Hillyard as an at-risk missing person due to a medical condition. Wachs told Fox News Digital she is dealing with a health condition that may leave her disoriented and in need of help but declined to share further details to protect her privacy.
According to Wachs, search efforts now include Oakland police, the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office and neighboring search-and-rescue teams. Volunteers have been combing hiking trails, canvassing neighborhoods and checking in with local businesses in hopes of finding any trace of Hillyard.
The family is now urging residents, particularly in Cleveland Heights, Lake Merritt, the Lakeshore District and Crocker Highlands, to check home surveillance systems for possible sightings beginning the afternoon she vanished.
Hillyard is described as 5-foot-4 and about 120 pounds with blonde hair. Police recently clarified she was last seen wearing a white T-shirt, light blue jeans and white sneakers with a black stripe, updating an earlier description of different clothing.
Authorities have classified her as an at-risk missing person due to a medical condition and issued an endangered missing alert Sunday evening, sending notifications to mobile phones across the East Bay days after her disappearance.
A neighbor told KTVU that Hillyard left without her cellphone and has not been heard from since.
NANCY GUTHRIE DISAPPEARANCE SPARKED HARROWING 12-HOUR ODYSSEY FOR SAVANNAH
As concern grows, missing-person flyers have spread throughout Oakland and San Francisco, appearing near Jack London Square, along Grand Avenue and at the Powell Street BART station, SFGate reported. Posters have also been displayed at Farley’s East coffee shop, the East Bay café Hillyard co-owns with her husband.
Despite the expanding search, her husband said the family is still searching for answers.
"Missing since 2 p.m. Wednesday. That’s all we know," Chris Hillyard said in a message to SFGate.
The case has resonated deeply in the community, where friends describe Hillyard as a connector and leader.
"She’s the kind of person that collects people, brings people together," friend Serena Khaira said at a vigil Sunday, according to KTVU. "When you have a problem, she’s generally the first person you reach out to."
In addition to co-running Farley’s Coffee, Hillyard operates a consulting practice and has advised leaders at major organizations, including Apple, Gap, Electronic Arts and the Marine Mammal Center, according to her website. She has also been deeply involved in nonprofit and community work, serving on boards and leading pro bono efforts.
Hillyard serves as board president of the Piedmont East Bay Children’s Choir. In a statement to KTVU, the organization said her disappearance has shaken the community.
"This is incredibly difficult news for our close community. Amy is such an important part of our organization, and our hearts are with her and her loved ones as we hope for her safe return," the group said.
Farley’s Coffee is a deeply rooted family business with a long Bay Area history. Founded in 1989 by Roger Hillyard in San Francisco’s Potrero Hill neighborhood, the café was named after his grandfather, Jack Farley, who disappeared in the 1920s.
The business was later passed to Roger’s son, Chris, and Amy, who helped expand it into the East Bay and local airports. The company describes itself as a community hub built on connection, tradition and shared space, values that many say Hillyard embodied.
In a statement, the business said, "Our hearts go out to Amy and her family and friends during this difficult time. She has been a passionate and active member of the Oakland community for 20-plus years. We hope that she returns safely, and we appreciate any information."
Hundreds of people gathered near Lake Merritt over the weekend for a candlelight vigil, underscoring the growing urgency and widespread concern surrounding her disappearance.
Anyone with information is urged to contact the Oakland Police Department. The family is also asking those with possible video or tips to come forward as the search intensifies.
Fox News Digital reached out to the Oakland Police Department for updates on the search but did not immediately receive a response.
Costco's $140, 10-pound Easter bunny has shoppers questioning price and instructions to smash it apart
Costco shoppers are hopping into a debate over an oversized Easter treat that's far too big to fit in any basket.
Members have been buzzing about the wholesale giant's chocolate Easter bunny. It's a seasonal sweet priced at $112.97 online and up to $140 in some stores, depending on location — and it comes with instructions to smash it apart using a hammer, mallet or rolling pin.
The 10-pound giant bunny is being sold as an oversized Easter centerpiece and shareable dessert.
COSTCO DEBUTS NEW SUNDAE — BUT SHOPPERS CALL IT A 'SLAP IN FACE'
The semi-solid bunny is made with milk chocolate, white chocolate and dark chocolate, according to the packaging, and contains 151 servings.
The box also details how to actually eat it.
Shoppers can either smash the bunny by wrapping it in a towel and giving it "one bold whack" with a hammer, mallet or rolling pin — or slice it using a warmed serrated bread knife, according to package instructions shared online.
The product, nicknamed "Pete the Bunny," according to the box, quickly sparked reaction across social media, where commenters have debated everything from the price and chocolate quality to whether anyone could actually buy that much candy at once.
COSTCO FANS CLASH OVER FOOD COURT FAVORITE FOUND IN FREEZER AISLE: BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL?
In one Costco Reddit thread, a shopper shared a photo of the bunny priced at $139.99, prompting one commenter to write, "I wonder how many would actually buy it."
Others questioned whether such a large amount of chocolate made sense for most households.
"So excessive," one person said.
"I can't imagine the target audience for this," another Redditor wrote.
"I wouldn't want to eat chocolate that tons of other people have touched, but I also couldn't eat that by myself or with my family, so who is it for?!"

Some commenters saw it as more of a spectacle than a staple.
"It honestly looks like the ultimate Easter statement piece," one shopper noted, while another suggested it could work for group settings, such as a kid's birthday.
Laura Lamb, who runs the social media account Costco Hot Finds, shared a video of the massive bunny and said it would be the "funniest Easter centerpiece."
"This one had people stopping in their tracks," the Texas-based content creator said.
But not everyone was convinced.
"Ummm, for $140 Pete can STAY at Costco," one Instagram user commented on Lamb's video.
On TikTok, someone else joked, "For $140, does Pete do the dishes and babysit?"

Others pointed out that the bunny costs nearly as much as filling up a tank of gas right now, while some bashed the quality of the candy.
In a Reddit thread for residents of Lincoln, Nebraska, one commenter described it as "10 lbs. of the worst chocolate," while another called it "chocolate wax."
Some users pushed back on the criticism, noting that the price per pound makes sense, and Lamb called it "delicious."
One commenter said the cost worked out to roughly $13.50 per pound, describing it as "right around the average cost for chocolate."
Maud Borup, a Minnesota food company that makes the bunny, said it is made from fair-trade chocolate and is only being sold at Costco for now, USA Today reported. "One giant bunny, 100 little moments of chocolate," the company told the outlet in a statement.
TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ
Others suggested creative ideas for handling the massive bunny, such as smashing it up and saving it for later use in desserts like cookies or hot chocolate.
One Reddit user, citing the nutritional label, noted that the treat contains 19 grams of sugar per serving — adding up to 2,869 grams, or more than 6 pounds of sugar, across its 151 servings.
In the days leading up to Easter, some shoppers also reported seeing markdowns, depending on location.
One Costco customer on Reddit said the bunny had been discounted by $100 at a California warehouse, while others in the thread reported prices dropping to around $50 — or even about $30 — at select locations.
"I wonder how much the price will drop after Easter," another commenter said, as others pointed to Costco's 5-pound Valentine's Day chocolate heart, which some said they picked up post-holiday for just $20.
NYC rideshare driver reportedly forced out of his own SUV at gunpoint after refusing four masked men rides
A New York City rideshare driver was reportedly carjacked at gunpoint last week in a terrifying late-night encounter when four masked men brazenly demanded a ride, according to the authorities.
The incident happened March 23 at 1:30 a.m. when the 51-year-old driver was inside his Toyota Highlander SUV in Lower Manhattan.
Authorities said when the driver refused to take them to a specific location, one of the men allegedly brandished a gun and forcibly removed him from the vehicle.
The hijackers then sped off in the SUV, driving it all the way to Newark, New Jersey, where it was later recovered, according to the New York Post.
The suspects were last reported at large, with police continuing their search for the brazen crew.
Officials released video showing the masked suspects entering what appeared to be a bodega, all wearing black hooded sweatshirts pulled up and black face masks.
GAS THIEF CREEPS INTO LEARNING CENTER, DRAINS VAN SERVING STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES
It was not immediately clear whether the victim worked for a specific rideshare company, but the vehicle had TLC plates, specialized license plates issued by the New York City Taxi & Limousine Commission required for any ridesharing vehicles, including Uber and Lyft, the Post reported.
Police confirmed the driver was not injured in the ordeal, the outlet added.
Fox News reached out to NYPD Crimes Stoppers for more information.
