Go for the Gold, ya'll! Sorry, gotta use the Olympics puns while I can. But seriously, I've been waiting for Trader Joe's Carolina Gold BBQ Chips since they talked about them on the Inside Trader Joe's podcast. And for me, these are definitely gold, five stars, two thumbs up, 10/10, etc.

The mango puree tastes fresh vs. getting that tinniness that you sometimes get with canned…
Have you seen this new limited edition tote bag ($2.99) in your local Trader Joe's yet? It's a super cute breakfast motif with toast on one side and a waffle on the other. And you can't have a blog called DailyWaffle without having this bag, right?!
