Now that the initial wave of excitement over Pumpkinpalooza has died down a little bit, I thought we'd do a quick Yay or Nay on three new not pumpkin/maple Trader Joe's items.
NAY -- I fully expected to like Trader Joe's Cheesy Seasoning blend. It seemed like the perfect thing for popcorn, but you'll…
Cute food alert! I kinda can't resist mini foods, and Trader Joe's Maple Poffertjes, mini Dutch pancake puffs definitely fall into that category. Somewhat similar to Danish aebelskivers, both are cooked in special pans with half-sphere indentations.
Although everyone's first inclination is to throw things in the air fryer, I opted to bake them. If…

Ya'll, Trader Joe's has let us down big time. Friends don't let friends think Trader Joe's Jollof Rice is anything like the real deal. It's little more than a (sort of) spicy…
Trader Joe's took the hint when lots of people doctored up their Mochi Cake Mix last year with cocoa. It's something locals in Hawaii, and Japanese / Japanese Americans have made for decades. Now, TJ's is back with Trader Joe's Chocolate Mochi Cake Mix with Peanut Butter Frosting. Gluten-free friends, you are gonna be…
As coffee barbecue sauces go, Homesick Texan's recipe has always been my favorite. It sets a high bar with a nice kick and some smoke from the chipotle and good, but not overwhelming coffee flavor. In comparison, Trader Joe's Cold Brew BBQ Sauce is the mild version. No heat, and while you can taste the…
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.
So let's start…
If you're a fan of Trader Joe's ube ice cream or Ube Mochi cake mix, you've probably been waiting for TJ's to bring the two together. Well, now, it's here: Trader Joe's Ube Mochi Ice Cream.
The mochi is thinner and stretchier on these than the other mochi ice cream I've had from TJ's. Not…
It looks like Trader Joe's is in the business of making dreams come true with their Hold the Dairy Mini Cones. Because while they will make vegans happy, they're also gonna make a lot of people who just can't do dairy happy, too.
I think we all laughed a little when the serving size…
Yep, Trader Joe's Spicy Mango Lemonade is as good as you think it is! It's got a legit spicy kick (with both jalapeño puree and a hit of cayenne), so it's no joke. And it builds up on you.
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?!
SIDE 1 - BEFORE
As much as I…
