We Tried Trader Joe’s Non-Dairy Oat Milk Fudgesicles
Trader Joe's is killing it on the vegan products lately. But I've especially been liking their ice cream-type products. I mean, the Cold Brew and Boba non-dairy dessert, the Oat Milk Strawberry Ice Cream, love 'em! And now TJ's has a non-dairy Oat Milk Fudgesicle in its freezer section. ( It's got a longer, more…
