My husband and I love the lemon shortbread cookies
YAY glad you both enjoyed them 🍋🌼😋❣️
Your candid review of those lemon cookies was top tier 😂
😆 To add even more candor, it tasted like cookies left out on the counter for a few days that you are debating whether to toss or not 😬
@@traderjoesgeek Your review was hilarious yet very informative. Much appreciated 🫶🏾
@@c.w.1925 Thank you so much for the kind word and for watching❣️
I’m getting:
Elote salad
Ivys reserve somerset red cheese
Lemon cake box?
Ube pancake mix
Super strawberry sorbet
Ube mochi
Cal Pressed olive oil
Sounds like a great haul 🛒
i LOVE the pink & white cookies.. can eat the whole box in one sitting.. so I didn't buy them.. and I didn't buy the lemon, but heard you can freeze them.. so might have to go back down :)
You’re not alone❣️So many people love them. I just wasn’t a fan but that just means there’s more for you 🌸🤗🌸
Shopping sister! Wonderful timing,this week I’m off to TJs. Thanks for the heads up on the lemon cookies, I’m a sucker for anything lemon but like you, don’t care for the sugar crystals on top. I’ll def buy a Meyer lemon cake mix, thanks for the review. Take care!
I’d pass on the lemon cookies for sure. Definitely nothing remarkable. Curious to hear your thoughts on the lemon cake mix after you try it 🍋🍰💭❣️
That was interesting about "waffling" the dessert. We use the waffle maker to cook a lot of things. It's a great idea.
Totally❣️I’ve been seeing this trending a lot for a lot of foods which makes it kind of fun 🧇🤩
You're so good about eating a variety of vegetables. 🍠 Nice job on the Meyer lemon cake! 🍋
I am a volume eater so I need to eat a lot of vegetables 🥕🥗🍠🥬🥦🫑 in order to get full and then *try* to eat less of the calorically dense foods on the side 🤭 Thank you so much for always watching❣️
🎉🎉🎉Thank you for another great haul & review. I always appreciate your videos, especially since your store gets new products way ahead of mine.
The Honey Pearl grapes do not have the nice crunchy snap that most of us enjoy. I purchased them twice. Both times they were soft. 😜 I ended up returning the second container.
Another thing we agree on! I do not like the extra sugar sprinkles on any cookies either.
Can’t wait to get my hands on a loaf of that garlic 🧄 bread. 🥖 IMO, the pretzel 🥨 breadsticks are very salty and extremely hard. They weren’t my favorite.
Thank you again for taking us along on your shopping 🛒 trip. Always enjoy a good shop along with you. 😊🥰🥰
Thank you for confirming that the honey grapes 🍯🍇 are soft. My intuition and my observation were right then. I’ll probably pass on them.
Oh wow! I felt like I was the only person who didn’t like the added sugar crystals on top. I know sometimes it for the aesthetics and the crunch but it’s unnecessary in my opinion.
I wanted to get the garlic bread but then I got a little weirded out because there’s cheese in it and it wasn’t refrigerated 😬 so I passed even though I wanted to try it 😞
I’m sensitive to salt and several people have said those pretzel breadsticks are salty so I’ll probably have to pass on them too 😞
Thank you so much for always watching❣️
“Chubby choices” is so almond mom haha
🤣🤣🤣 I just heard that term recently from my sister who heard it from somewhere else and so I’m like I’m going to start using that from now on because it made me giggle 🤭
@@traderjoesgeek yeah I totally got a chuckle too! 😂
@@bhi7326 🤭
did you notice the two cheese cakes wedges at the top of the box jumped up when you were showing them?
😮 I didn’t until you just mentioned it 😆
I really like the close up on the nutrition facts since I’ve been watching my carbs and sugars. I loved the Meyer Lemon cupcake with raspberry idea. I want to try this! I also like La Columbe coffee but not the premade lattes. The cold brews are great though! Nice video!
So glad to hear it’s helpful❣️I’m with you on the la colombe lattes. I love that they aren’t overly sweet but they are a little too milky for me but not sure how the oat milk cold brew would taste 🤔 Thank you so much for watching❣️
The roasted pizza is delicious with vegan chicken pieces from Daring
Love the roasted veggie pizza 🍕 daring chicken pieces I really enjoy as well 😋 thanks for the suggestion❣️
Pretzels are great - didn't find them too salty.
Thank you for this❣️I might have to give it a try 🥨🥖😋
They aren’t too salty but they are VERY hard. I would be careful with these if you have any dental work
@@Continuingsourceofinspiration oooo good to know❣️I actually love a hard pretzel or biscotti 😋
do u ever get the rices they sell at trader joes
Yes❣️I love their organic jasmine rice 🍚 I’ve tried (I think) all of the different types. Which one were you curious about?
Papaya is good for digestion of big meals or meat.
Yes they make digestive enzymes out of it which I’m sure you already know 😉
Thank you. Wow, lots of intereating items in this haul.
Thank you so much for always watching❣️ Is there any item in particular that you want to try? 😋
@@traderjoesgeek I've been enjoying the frozen pasta so much. I want to try linguini with pesto and tomatoes and garlicky pasta. I'm always happy to see your posts. Thank you
@@jazzbeaux6154 the frozen pastas are surprisingly delicious 😋 I know a lot of people like the umami garlicky pasta but it wasn’t my favorite 😕 and I want to try their frozen fettucine alfredo which I’ve heard good reviews on 🍝
I’m curious about the honey grapes but I’m also particular about grapes being firm and crunchy. Still disappointed that TJ doesn’t get that many new gluten free items. The Ube pancakes are good though. I’ll make sure to get a box again as it was out of stock for a while. I saw those sweet potato dog treats and was disappointed I don’t have a dog to buy it for. 😋 Costco had a sale on Siete chips so that’s what I’m snacking on this week 🙂
I plan on buying a bag of the siete chips on my next Costco run. I always/only get it when it’s on sale 🤑
Have you tried the new vegan gluten free cheddar crackers? I’ve heard lots of good reviews on it but haven’t tried it yet
@@traderjoesgeekno! I’ll keep any eye out next time
@@reneets5729 I featured it in the previous video here 👇🏻 starting at 4:03

Loooov the spicy meat pizza! Though I agree it wasn’t spicy
Same 🍕😋 I’d definitely get it again❣️
@@traderjoesgeek same! I added red pepper flake to mine
@@TheTerakitty YASSSSSS 😋 I always add red pepper flakes and dried oregano to my pizza too 🍕
Omg the Honey grapes are so good
I want to try them 🍯🍇 are they soft though? 🤔
@@traderjoesgeek
Yes and so sweet. I couldn’t stop eating them 😂
@@gizzy1223 🤭 that could be a good or bad thing 😋 thanks for confirming they are soft grapes 🍇
@@traderjoesgeek
😂😂 so true.
I don’t like the honey Pearl they’re too expensive and I hate sour grapes. So if you like sour, you’ll love them!
I can’t seem to get myself to try it because they just don’t look like they will have that crispy snap 🫰 and like you said they’re pricey 🤑 Thanks for your honest feedback❣️
has traders joe always give samples
Yes❣️They stopped for a few years but recently brought the sample station back about a year ago but it also depends on the store. Some stores offer sample a few times a week and some stores offer samples daily. I go to 3 local stores and there’s only 1 out of the 3 stores that offers samples.
Boy, I wish Trader Joe's would clean up their oil game. So many inflammatory oils!
cheap
Absolutely agree❣️
😬
I tried the papaya and to me had no taste.
Bummer 😕 I haven’t heard that many great reviews on it either. Thanks so much for the honest feedback❣️
Sounds like most of the things you showed us were not very good.Im not sure about shopping at trader joes.
Since there’s so many items to show, I try to spotlight the new and seasonal items that arrive each week. Some weeks are better than others for sure. Thanks so much for watching❣️
