We Tried Trader Joe’s Instant Cold Brew
Trader Joe's first talked about their reverse engineered instant cold brew as targeted for the summer, which would have made more sense in any normal year. I was intrigued by the idea of cold brew that was freeze dried into crystals designed to be rehydrated. But I gotta tell ya, I'm not super impressed with…

3 New Totally Not Twee Christmas Romances
I love the holidays as much as the next person. The Christmas trees, hot toddies, cozy sweaters, reading by a fireplace.

We Tried Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Empanadas
First things first, these are NOT called Pumpkin PIE empanadas. It's true, these are spiced with cinnamon, clove, allspice, ginger and salt. But this is not quite pumpkin pie. They aren't as sweet as all that. And I really really like Trader Joe's Pumpkin Empanadas! Through all the ice creams and desserts you've often…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Gochujang Vegetable Stirfry
I was excited to see Trader Joe's getting into gochujang. The red chile paste is a staple of Korean cooking and just as Trader Joe's has dabbled with sriracha, I can't wait for gochujang to show up on Trader Joe's shelves (fingers crossed). Trader Joe's Gochujang Vegetable Stirfry seems to be its first go at…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Spicy Pumpkin Samosas
So far I'm pretty impressed with Trader Joe's new fall items. Of course everyone looks forward to the return of their favorites, but I'm most interested in the new-new. The Spicy Pumpkin Curry Simmer Sauce was a hit at our house. And Trader Joe's Spicy Pumpkin Samosas got a thumbs up, too. …

We Tried Trader Joe’s Murasaki Sweet Potato Chips
Ya'll know how much I loved the Sweet Potato Chips from Peru Trader Joe's had this spring/summer. Well, for the fall, they're bringing us Trader Joe's Murasaki Sweet Potato Chips. Made from a Japanese sweet potato variety that's starchier and less sweet than a garnet or jewel yam, these new chips bring the crunch, but…
