Trader Joe’s Deli Sandwich chips. I like them, but I can’t quite put my finger on the flavors. You get a little vinegar, a little mustard, maybe even a little pepperocini (there’s nothing to suggest it in the ingredient list, so am I imagining it?!) . I halfway expected to get kind of a smoky ham flavor, too but no. If you like the Patio Chips, the flavor here is a little more subtle, and of course, they’re not ridged. They’re good. Would I buy again? Yeah. But if you have to choose between these and the Carolina Gold BBQ Chips, go BBQ.
Trader Joe’s newest fried rice is calling itself Korean Japchae fried rice. But I think that’s slightly overstating the Japchae part of the story. It does have some sweet potato noodles, but not much. And for me, not even really enough to call it japchae. But is it good? Yeah, it’s fine. I think people who like TJ’s various fried rices will dig it. It’s got identifiable vegetables. You can grab a package of the bulgogi or vegan bulgogi and throw it all together for a quick dinner.
