Trader Joe’s is Ready to Stuff Your Stockings with new Holiday Health and Beauty Sets

It's good to see some brand new items as well as returning favorites in new scents. Prices weren't posted yet at my store, but…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Sparkling Tropical Lemonade

I give Trader Joe's points for actually putting tropical fruit concentrates into its Sparkling Tropical Lemonade. But the truth is, you can smell them more than you can taste them in the beverage. Like, I can smell the guava for sure, I'm iffy on pineapple or passion fruit. But bottom line, if you plug your…

You Want Trader Joe’s Waffle Fries With That?

We Compare Trader Joe's and Alexia's Seasoned Waffle Cut Fries When I grabbed a bag of Trader Joe's Waffle Fries, I just assumed they were probably pretty similar to the Alexia brand ones I usually get at the supermarket.

Trader Joe’s Spinach and Cashew Ravioli is Vegan & Tasty

When it comes to Trader Joe's Spinach and Cashew Ravioli, call me surprised and call me a fan! As someone who does eat eggs and cheese, I did miss a little of the egginess of standard pasta dough. But the pasta is actually thin and delicate and pretty dang good for a packaged pasta! …

We Tried Trader Joe’s Cacio e Pepe Puffs

We finally finally got Trader Joe's Cacio e Pepe Puffs. Made with corn and rice like the Jalapeño seasoned version, I think these might actually be crunchier and less airy. They're definitely less styrofoam-like than the jalapeño. And I thought I was gonna love them. The cheese isn't too in your face, and some…

Trader Joe’s French Crepe Chocolate Wafer Cookies

Trader Joe's French Chocolate Crepe Wafer Cookies are a really effective way to get chocolate into your face. The crepe layers are seriously so thin and crunchy. And wrapped, dare I say, enrobed(?) in milk chocolate? Delicious. There are three cookies stacked in each compartment for a total of 21. A few on the…

Trader Joe’s Spicy Buffalo Cheddar Makes Some Tasty Chips ‘n Cheese

Trader Joe's Spicy Buffalo Cheddar is the cheese I needed for Super Bowl Sunday. (Then again, I probably would have knocked the bowl over dancing during the half time show. :D ) This cheese lives somewhere between Velveeta and standard cheddar. And with jalapeños and habaneros in the mix, it's got a good kick. …
