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…

What I Did With Trader Joe’s Crispy Jalapeño Pieces

Over on Reddit r/TraderJoes someone suggested green bean casserole as a possible use for Trader Joe's Crispy Jalapeño Pieces. I have to admit, I'm not a big fan, canned green beans aren't my jam. But I thought, what about Hash Brown Casserole instead? But first, here's what you're looking for on your next…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Portuguese Custard Tarts

It took a little while for Trader Joe's Portuguese Custard Tarts to finally show up at my store. Not sure what the hold up was, but now that I've finally had them, I kinda wish I'd gotten two boxes. They come four to a box, and I was surprised to find them not wrapped…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Joe-Joe’s

I've got some good news and some bad news. Ok, bad news first. There are only 8 cookies in a box of Trader Joe's Chocolate Peanut Butter Joe-Joe's. The good news? Now you know you should buy two boxes on your next TJ's trip. So, this is a Joe-Joe with a peanut butter filling, dipped…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Fruity Chewy Candy (yeah, like Starbursts)

Trader Joe's Fruity Chewy Candy definitely lives up to its name. It comes in five fruit flavors -- cherry, strawberry, lemon, raspberry and orange. And, they are definitely on the firm side of chewy. Stick-to-your-teeth chewy! I think you might want to put them in a hot car for 15-20 minutes to soften them up…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Vegan Caramelized Onion Dip

Growing up, we were a Lipton's Onion Soup Mix dip family. Stir the packet into a tub of sour cream or yogurt and let it sit for a half an hour. Voila! But then people started getting fancy, making caramelized onion dip at home. It's fine, but for me, the salty goodness stands on its…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Vegan Tzatziki Dip

Trader Joe's Vegan Ranch Dip was pretty good. But I couldn't get past the fact you could still taste that it was made with a coconut cream base. But with this new Trader Joe's Vegan Tzatziki Dip, I think they've got a winner on their hands for vegan and non-vegan eaters. Seriously. With…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Cold Brew and Boba Non-Dairy Dessert

Remember how amazed I was about the Oat Milk Strawberry Ice Cream Trader Joe's came out with last year? So unbelievably creamy for a vegan ice cream! Well, I'll just break it to you now, Trader Joe's Cold Brew and Boba Ice Cream (ok, it's non-dairy) isn't as creamy. But! I still really liked it.…
