Appreciate the new presentation without all the facts and ingredients. Even though we don't have any young children anymore, we still decorate the tree with the Whole Foods organic candy canes which are a yummy treat once the tree comes down.
Thank you for noticing❣️I’m trying to find a middle ground where everyone is happy 😊 Candy canes are such a nostalgic treat 😋 love seeing people put it on their Christmas tree 🎄😍
I really enjoyed the pace of this video - it felt like you were able to include a lot more items without reading the labels. And anyone who needs to know certain nutrition facts can always pause the video and see what they need. Well done and still super informative! Thank you!
Hi Michelle, thanks so much for watching and for the feedback❣️Still learning the ropes of
making UA-cam videos and trying my best to finding a happy medium where everyone can get a little bit of what they want ☺️
I make homemade sausage gravy using ground pork and use my own seasonings. And yes, meatballs.
Wow never thought to use it in gravy 😮 thanks for sharing❣️
I use ground pork for egg roll in a bowl; it’s a quick and easy meal. I like to serve it with those wonton strips that are sold to top salads.
Wow that’s different 🤩 Now I have to Google egg roll in a bowl 🥣 thanks so much for sharing❣️
Finally went to Sam's. Picking up passion fruits, persimmon. Salads. And sample the frozen chocolate cover strawberry 🍓. Omg it was so good. I was sold, bough a bag ❤.
Yay 😃 samples always get me too 😆 they always taste better at the store though 🤔
Hey!! You should do a whole 30 Trader Joe’s haul😀I want to do whole 30!!! Love veggie pouches and the cone ones yummy
Hi Nancy 🤗 I actually filmed a whole 30 haul when I first started my channel but recorded it in the wrong format and then never got around to posting it but maybe I’ll post it when I do it again which might be in January 😃 have you tried whole 30?
Pork Sambal is a great way to use ground pork. It’s kind of like Asian bolognese
Interesting…I’ll have to Google that as well. Thanks for sharing❣️
For the holidays, I use ground pork in pork stuffing. It’s my father-in-laws recipe that was passed down to me. It’s not traditional pork stuffing/ gorton but it’s a beloved family recipe that I make now. It’s basically heavily spiced crumbled pork. Thanks for sharing the new products, I can’t wait to find those cream puffs!
Wow 🤩 I’ve never heard of pork stuffing before...how unique❣️I’ve only had the meatless version growing up. Thanks for sharing the story behind the family recipe 🥹🥰
There's so much to get! Great video...I've been really into different salts (pink, salt flakes, truffle salt etc) so I'm excited to get the Portuguese and wine salt to add to my collection
Yay 😃 thank you so much for watching and hope you enjoy the new salts 🧂❣️
Love apple pie! 🍎🍏
Their apple pies are pretty tasty 🍎🥧😋 Thank you so much for watching❣️
Best shopping updates hands down! Awesome presentation of deals, details....everything! Please do a Costco one too if you can sometime! The Twining's winter spice tea is perhaps the best in that category. Thanks!!
Thank you so much for watching and for your feedback❣️Really appreciate it 🥹🥰 Costco is on my radar…trying to find a time to go to when it’s not so busy to film 🎥 has been challenging because my location has a lot of foot traffic 😅 but hopefully soon 🤞🏻
Oh man, you gotta be careful flipping those pies over so you don't break the crust/ mess up the crumble topping.
It’s tricky because I’m trying to do it with one hand 🤚🏻 while the other one is used for filming 😩 but I hear you❣️
The candy cane almonds omg I picked them up today! Gonna go back to get more!👀🤣
Dangerous right?! That’s why I don’t purchase them 🤭
The wine infused salt is to die for. Love it so much I got stocked up in case it's just seasonal & I don't want to run out.
Good idea to stock up 💡 because it is a holiday seasonal item❣️Other than meat 🥩 what else do you pair it with? 🤔 I’ve been debating on getting it due to mixed reviews…
@traderjoesgeek I use it on everything. Made a bison stew & it gave it a step up on the taste.
Used it for a dinner party & everyone raved about it. Thank u for sharing it's a seasonal item. I might have to get more! Ha!
Definitely try it!
@@beckiingawanup8130 Bison stew 🦬 🍲 now that’s not something I thought I was going to hear 😃 glad it was a hit & thanks for the recommendation❣️
@traderjoesgeek basically I make the hamburger soup w/lots of veggies & sub bison for the hamburger. Definitely more flavor & healthier for u. Hardly any fat. So good on a cold winter day. I make a big batch & eat it all wk. Yum! Trader joes has this wonderful olive bread that my husband loves so we pair them together.
@@beckiingawanup8130 Hamburger soup 🍔🥣🤩 I haven’t heard of that either 😆 but sounds fun 🤩 and thanks for the reminder that wild game meats are actually lower in fat…omg yes the olive bread 🫒🍞 I showed that in last week’s video. It’s one of my FAVORITE breads. So good slightly warmed up 🤤 and great as a side to soup like you mentioned or even to make small sandwiches with 🥪❣️
Another great review! No complaints here about your review and presentations. Personally, I like how you describe the products. We usually have pies and a pumpkin cake roll for Thanksgiving dessert. I use a mixture of ground pork & ground beef in my lasagna. It’s also tasty in a soup, especially the zuppa toscano (a version like Olive Garden serves) YESSSS! I always use eggnog for French toast during holiday season & I’ve used the brown sugar oat beverage too. Very tasty. Just bought the cinnamon bun one last night, but have not tried it yet. Have a great weekend. 🥰❤️
Thank you so much for your positivity and always having such kind words 🥰🥹 you’re the sweetest❣️Homemade zuppa toscano soup 🥣 that probably tastes a whole lot better than Olive Garden (which I was never a fan of 😬). I’ll have to treat myself and try making the egg nog French toast this year 😋 Please let me know how the cinnamon bun oat creamer is. I’ve heard mostly good reviews but there was some really negative reviews as well which I was surprised to hear. I mostly buy creamers for oatmeal and not actual coffee so I rarely buy it unless I’m on an oatmeal kick which will probably start soon as it gets colder 🥶 Thank you so much for watching 🫶🏻
I've tried the Babka bread and it is amazing! It's really good if you heat it up in the microwave for about 15 to 20 seconds :-)
YAY glad you enjoy it 😋 and thanks for tip❣️ It’s been on my list to try but keeps getting bumped back with all the new items continually coming out.
Loving this! We could be shopping sisters! I’m planning to take the Nantucket cranberry pie and TJs green bean casserole, seems like an elevated version, to the family dinner.
Haha yes 👯♀️❣️2 of my FAVES ❤️❤️ I’m sure your family will love both 😋 Thank you so much for watching❣️
The Brie en Croute is fabulous!!! We serve it as an appetizer with fig butter or raspberry preserves. We love it so much that we stock up during the holiday season, so we have some on hand all year long. Around $6.99 per box (Southern California price), but worth it. A total showstopper appetizer for entertaining.
Thanks so much for the detailed review❣️I’m not a big fan of brie but that combination of adding a fruit preserve to it might make me change my mind. Might have to go back and pick it up for my Friendsgiving 😋
New subscriber. Your voice is ASMR… so calming. Joined for that alone 🖤🥂✨
THANK YOU so much for subscribing and the kind words 🥰❣️
I bought the felt pine combs at my local TJs, so cute!
YAY 😃 hope they make your place look warm & cozy for the fall🍂❣️
Ground pork is great to make pork buns.
Cook the pork, add onions, carrots and some soft potatoes.
Take a biscut and roll it flat, put the mixture inside and close in up like a boa bun and bake it for like 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Smother with gravy if you like, I'm not a big fan of gravy 😅
That sounds delicious and incredibly hard at the same time for me 😆 Thanks for sharing your recipe❣️
The danish cookies are amazing! Got them the other day at Trader Joe’s, and the boxes already gone!
OMG YES they’re sooooo good❣️They will appear & be reviewed in the next video along with my grocery haul 🛒that I didn’t get to share in this video. I ate 3 in one day 😬🤭🤤I should buy more and just freeze them to have throughout the winter ❄️
We shop TJ’s weekly. Their bakery items, are dry. They can ruin a donut 🤷♀️ Love their store but not the bakery.
I don’t disagree❣️I have said many times that their frozen desserts and pastry items are far superior than the bakery section 😕
Their mini apple pie in the bakery section is delicious. Needs to be warmed up prior to devouring. My favorite non frozen dessert so far.
@@eg1197 How could I forget about the apple pies 🤦♀️ Actually their apple pies are pretty good in the bakery section. Or specifically the apple crumble pie that just returned is also delicious and the teeny tiny apple pies go without saying 😋 I really need to get those again before they’re gone❣️The gluten free muffin line is great 🧁 and the seasonal mousse cakes I also enjoy but they’re hit or miss. The glazed maple scones that came out last year were good but sadly didn’t make a comeback this year. Generally speaking though, I agree that the bakery options aren’t my favorite 😕 but I still love taking a look each time I go 😍
I wish they would bring back their chocolate ganache cake that used to be in the frozen section. It was such a quality cake it could of been sold in a five star restaurant.
@@michellejoy6752 OMG I would 🤎 that 🍫🍰 I’ve said it before but the frozen cakes, pies, & desserts are FANTASTIC. A lot of the times I prefer it over the fresh bakery section. Although I must say the fresh pies 🥧 this time of year have been amazing as well 😋
I like classic homemade pumpkin pie and pecan pie, I also love a dessert when I was a kid which was called ambrosia I loved it as a kid!! And still do it’s sour cream , cool whip or homemade whip cream and you mix in sugar fruit cocktail mandarin oranges pineapple, coconut shreds, mini marshmallows ,it sounds gross but it’s delicious!!
OMG yes ambrosia…what a throwback❣️I’ve had ambrosia with jello cubes mixed in as well 😆 That needs to get back in circulation for the holidays 🎄 just for nostalgic reasons alone. I’ve only had homemade pecan pie once 🥧 (rest was store/bakery bought) and it was literally the best pecan pie I’ve ever had 🤤
I wonder why their pumpkin pie isn’t refrigerated?
I saw that cannoli dip and immediately thought of making some puff pastry sticks to serve with this and maybe a sprinkle of chocolate shavings.
In the North East , PA, Virginia and Maryland we have Wegmans grocery stores who have the cannoli dip with cannoli chips ( from the shells). A family favorite over the holidays.
@@sandyhossman7771 I ❤️ Wegmans and wish they had some out here in California❣️They have an impressive selection of items 🤩
Not sure why it’s not refrigerated 🤔 Other supermarkets like Ralph’s and Albertsons also have it just laying out in the bakery section. I do know a lot of the bakery items come frozen to Trader Joe’s and then they let it thaw on the shelves for purchase. Ooooo puff pastry sticks with the cannoli dip sound amazing 😋
Thank you for sharing!!!!!
Thank you so much for watching Camille❣️
New sub here and am thrilled with your jam packed presentation! I need to check in at my Trader Joe's looks like so many goodies I need to pick up! Looking forward to seeing many more videos from you! Greetings from Buffalo NY! 🎄
Hi Cynthia 🤗 THANK YOU so much for subscribing and saying hello 👋 Glad to hear you’re enjoying the videos❣️
Thank you, you do a great job of showing everything
Thank you so much for watching and for your feedback❣️
I think there called (Point Sen yetas) but I could be saying it wrong
You’re probably right Brett. I get tongue tied with certain words 😜 Thanks for the correct pronunciation❣️
Thank you for this video 😊 I love the scent of their candles, but everyone I've tried burns dirty and smokey..has anyone else have this problem?
Yes this used to happen to me all the time. The trick is before each use break off a little piece of the top of the wick. It usually comes right off and then re-light it and it should burn 🔥 without the smoke 💨 Thank you so much for watching❣️The next video should be up by this weekend 😃
Hi I use ground pork with ground veal to make city chicken.
Hi 🤗 city chicken? Never heard of that dish but what a fun name 🤩 Now I have to look it up. Thanks for sharing❣️
@@traderjoesgeek City chicken is a Polish thing in my family. There are 2 ways of making it depending on where you grew up and lived.
@@donnadivis8654 Google showed breaded chicken skewers 😍 does that sound about right?
@@traderjoesgeek yes either pieces of pork on skewers breaded and fried or the way my family makes them by adding the ground veal and ground pork made into a log dipped in milk and breaded and then fried in a pan.
@@donnadivis8654 that sounds delicious 😋
I always shop my Trader Joe’s in the middle of the week. It’s impossible to browse on the weekends. Other shoppers give you the evil eye! Move along!
Great strategy 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I avoid weekends as well. It’s a zoo and obviously terrible when I’m trying to film 🎥
How much is the bone in brined turkey cooked (only thing you left price off:(((
It’s $9.99/lb. The price has definitely increased over the years. It used to be $6.99 & $7.99 😭 I think I might have included the price in the video before this one titled “Exciting Trader Joe’s 2023 Holiday Arrivals…” 🤔
Honestly it’s a little pricey but I pay for the convenience. You don’t get a lot because depending on the cut sometimes you get more bone so you kind of have to feel around to get one with less bone 🦴 and more meat if that makes sense.
The pumpkin pie in prior years was very tasty… this new brand taste too tangy snd the crust began soggy and became mushy later. Don’t buy this.
Ahh bummer 😕 thanks for the detailed feedback❣️I know a lot of their bakery items come frozen so I wonder if that might have made it soggy mushy 🤔
Please note the oat milks are filled with bad ingredients.
Indeed 😩 Trader Joe’s does carry a healthier oat milk option with seeds for $3.99 although I wish it was organic❣️
