These kinds of videos are killing me 😂 Trader Joe's definitely on my bucket list if I ever go to the US
It's a great store!! And always lots of tasty free samples! :)
Ajeng Ghina Farhani I get that. I am in the US, but there is only one TJ in my state and it's a 3 hour drive to get there.
Me 2! I'm in Calgary Alberta Canada and we don't have one! I've been to one in Santa Barbara and I love it! I should open one here! ha ha
IS IT LIKE A COSTCO?!! THE FREE SAMPLES GOT ME EXCITED.
It's not a bulk store like Costco, and as for samples, they always have some kind of sample, but they will open ANY package for you to sample! You could sample a dozen things if you wanted to! They will even cook it up!
Munchies! These are my new favorites from Trader Joe’s, what are your favorites!?
Mind Over Munch sadly I have never had treats from here but these looks tasty xx
Their teriyaki turkey jerky! Mmmm
Renzee White I was thinking the exact same thing.....I took a health class in college and we researched a lot of articles from The Women's/National Institute For Health and there were so many negative things about soy and it's effect on ovaries, breasts etc.....I've had soy sauce on occasion and a Morning Star Veggie Burger or 2 but I'm scared to go full out vegetarian or vegan because there are is sooo many soy based meat substitutes.
Slow Carb Contessa I'm studying to be a dietitian and most of the data I have seen on soy has been positive
Check out Mic. The Vegan's video on soy because it's a good summary and explanation
Huntress Artemis thanks....I will!
I grew up in Southern California, where I shopped at Trader Joe's from when I could first drive myself there. Moved to the Midwest and missed it so much. Finally, after much begging, pleading and writing to TJ's, they opened a store here in Des Moines about 7 years or so ago. I am 100% happy, each and every time I walk into that store. The people working there are awesome, they treat their employees pretty well, and their products are generally priced well and fab. A million thumbs up for Trader Joe's!
Woman of a Certain Age I am in the Davenport area. We are excited for the Iowa City one to open next year. Only 1 hour instead of 3.
That's awesome!! I honestly did not love TJ's when I lived in NYC... I don't know if maybe it was too busy or if employees were just angry but it wasn't a great experience. Once I moved to LA I gave it another chance and now it's my favorite store!
My favorite items at TJ's are the roasted bell peppers and onions and the chicken cilantro mini wontons, both in the freezer section. The peppers and onions I use in scrambled eggs or I chop and add to soups or dishes.
awesome! Love those!!
Omg mixed nut butter???? Heckkkk yesss! I need to get some!! Also, can you do more videos on nutritional yeast I'm interested in making more items with that!
YES so good! And thanks for the suggestion :) I've got a few recipes that use nutritional yeast if you're interested!

Thank you!
as a south indian...I grew up on coconut oil... everything was cooked in coconut oil.....
ps . coconut oil is liquid in room temperature here😝😝
I love coconut oil!! Sometimes here in LA when it's warm it's liquid at room temperature too! 😅
coconut oil for hair as well 😂😂
Awesome!
Love the marshmallows, I make this epic Veganized cake with them and other Trader Joe's ingredients!
Do you ever have guests appearances, I'd love to show your audience this super easy crowd-pleaser?!
awesome, I'd post the recipe for viewers to find in the comments!
I'm loving TJ's coconut chips right now. Nothing earth shattering, but they are the perfect crunch.
Teggy Maris We love those too. I like making trail mixes with it and nuts and either raisins or a bit of choc chips for some sweetness but don't need a lot to satisfy as a treat. Really hits the spot.
So good! What a great choice :)
As a Cashier for a grocery store: Tips for getting out quick - Shop on the "off" days: usually, Tuesday - Thursday. Have your payment method ready! When putting things up to cash-out, put them on the belt/table the way you want them bagged, for example: If you want ALL of your heavy stuff in 1 bag, put them together, all of your cold things in a bag, put them together, or just put like things together, etc. Ideally: Cold/frozen things together FIRST *with* the Eggs, then produce, then pantry, then hot foods last. Bring your own bags, 2 thermals (1 for cold, 1 for hot/cold) and 3 two-gallon sized bags, put in front, on top of your groceries. Do not pile groceries on top of groceries, because this can cause an avalanche of groceries onto the floor. This saves you and your cashier time, thereby saving you more time. When putting groceries into the car, reverse the order, Hot first, then pantry, then produce, then cold last, as this will make it easier to unload into the home with cold first, produce second, pantry third, and hot ready-to-eat foods last. .... so many more tips .... but this is a good start.
nice tips, thanks for sharing!!
I love Trader Joe's, but I had not been there in about a month, so I went yesterday to pick up a few things. I was so pleasantly surprised to see all of the new products they are carrying. I bought the carrots and peas and the broccoli veggie patties. I bought 7 boxes of those veggie patties. They also sell a package of hash browns that doesn't have a million ingredients in it. It only has potatoes and dextrose, nothing more. I also picked up a package of just mangoes. I bought so many items that I ended up spending close to $100, but I am so happy with everything that I bought. Trader Joe's is amazing! Now I wish they offered online grocery shopping.
I wish they had online shopping too! So good!
My absolute favorite thing is not particularly healthy, but so delicious. It's the Mandarin Orange Chicken in the frozen section. We will have it every once in a while and it is so good! I like to make a little brown rice or quinoa and either broccoli or snap peas to go with it. It's our go to emergency dinner option. I almost always have a bag tucked in the freezer.
awesome, will keep an eye out! Thanks!!
Samantha Clanton I love that along with the vegetable fried rice! Together is amazing!
Alyssia I love these videos, and all your recipe and tip videos lately! But I would also love to see you to do more of the personal stuff again, vlog style stuff, what you ate in a day. More casual stuff is fun too!
thanks! I don't think we'll be sharing the vlog style content on the channel as much since it isn't representative of what we do now, but I'll continue to share that more personal and casual content on insta story!
Oo, I'll have to try the triple filtered coconut oil!
I've always really wanted to try it, but I'm not a fan of coconut.
Now I'll be able to try all those really cool ideas I've been seeing all over the place that involve coconut oil.
Thank-you!!
yeah! It's a great option :)
Love those coconut cashews and the freeze dried mangos
Brief,quick,AWESOME, and a lot of FUN. LOVE Mind Over Munch, love Eat The Pizza. AWESOME CHANNELS with uesful information. And a whole lot of fun
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed!! I appreciate your support so much, Sasha
I just tried their jarred fire roasted salsa and its great! Super low in sodium. I was grateful for that find!
awesome! I love their salsas!
I love the everyday seasoning. Love this video. Please do a part 2 😊
Yes I use it everyday!! And thanks for the suggestion :)
That everything bagel seasoning is soooo good on avocado toast!! You read my mind! And as always, thanks for including stuff for us vegans 😍
omg YES!!!
Thanks for the suggestions! Can't wait to try the coconut cashews. Also the everything seasoning mix on avocados sounds delicious. 😀
thank you :)
I literally bought everything listed because yolo and fomo also because oink oink. 😂
hahaaaaa!
Thanks for sharing... I love Trader Joe's but sometimes I'm hesitant about trying new products. I'm definitely going to try the coconut oil, the Everything but the Bagel seasoning and the Veggie burgers.
awesome! :) Thanks!
Can you do a meal prep or recipe video for people who have IBS/who are on low fodmap diet? I was diagnosed with IBS lately and I am kinda confused and lost and not sure what to eat especially since I don't eat meat/poultry...
I would be thankful if you could help me out with a video! Love you!
thanks for the suggestion!
Sofia Leskinen I was diagnosed with IBS-d 6 years ago so let me help you out. When it comes to FODMAPS, you are unlikely to be sensitive to all categories which is a good thing because eliminating all high FODMAP foods leads to a very unbalanced diet. Start with a good list broken down by category and then after a bland diet for a week (chicken, white rice, toast, eggs if you tolerate them) eat several items from the same category in one day. Then note your symptoms and go back to the bland diet for a whole week (full digestive transit is 7 days for most people). Repeat. Once you know your problem carbs you can avoid foods high in those and get back to a pretty normal diet. Also, kimchi, sauerkraut, and real fermented pickles are going to be your friend even if they look like they contain things you can't eat.
Ugh, I miss Trader Joe's so much. I wish it was closer. No grocery store compares!
Yes it's so awesome! I feel very lucky to have one close by, I didn't used to live near one
OH great and wise Mama Munch--what is that red in your hair?! I love it! I dye mine red but it's really thick and down to my thigh. Took four boxes the first time, lol! It's GLORIOUS! As for TJs, I love the everyday seasoning grinder, good on ANYTHING. And the hubby love the little green packs of "just a handful" olives! Tho admittedly he's known to go thru a few in one sitting on occasion. Check out the Agua Frescas! I drink a lot of soda, (I know I shouldn't) but I'm cutting down a bit cus of these. Lightly sweet, good flavors, REALLY good with chunked up fruit or berries!
Thank you so much, Tracy! I like to have a little flare in my hair :) I'll have to look for the agua frescas, thanks for the tip!
Trader Joe's has totally upped the game recently. Everything but the bagel seasoning = life game changer. I put it on popcorn...omg...also in love with the mixed nut butter. Thanks for the hint about the veggie patties...I'm almost never in that aisle but I'll go hunt these down because they could be everything. :)
YES total life changer!! It would be GREAT on popcorn! :) Awesome tip!
I'm going to have to check out the lentils. My 5 1/2 year old loves them, we always run out. The mixed nut butter, seasonings and veggie patties are going on the shopping list. Thanks for another great video
awesome! I hope you enjoy the items, thank you!!
I love lentils|!! One of my fav summer salads is lentils, cottage cheese, beets, parsely and mixed seeds
yes! The pre-packaged lentils are so convenient!!
These videos have gotten me Trader Joe’s obsession I keep going there to buy stuff
The chil-lime seasoning is so yummy on mango, pineapple, and watermelon.
what a great idea!!
I'm watching this on the way home from work and headed to Trader Joe's. Funnily enough, I already have almost all of the mentioned items already. 😂
These are such great products though.
I'm definitely going to try the everything bagel seasoning on avocado! I love that idea.
that's awesome!! That seasoning is good on EVERYTHING!! :)
I load up on the chile lime seasoning when ever I go to the US.The perfect mix of spice and tang! I love it on green apples!
awesome! I will have to try it on apples, thanks!
I loved the vegan shout out!!! And I've had those before and I LOVE THEM! Been craving them so much lately!
yum!
The coconut cashews are incredible omg!! I was addicted to those
YES they're crazy good!!
love TJs chocolate covered bananas in the freezer section. please do more TJs videos especially during the holidays and maybe quick meal prep with their frozen veggie mix and shrimp or chicken
YUM sounds tasty! And thanks for the suggestions :)
I'd love to see another bento box series featuring these items and more from Trader Joe's!
I use a lot of Trader Joes items in the bento series! :)
I'm so jealous of you Alyssa, all those tasty and healthy food, where a I come from we don't have health supermarkets... Although usually the food in all supermarkets is healthier than in America, very strict laws. No where near the produce that's in Trader Joes, when I went on a trip to America, I was wowed at all the strange fruit and veg I'd never saw before.
Oh that is such a bummer! I am sure you have neat foods that we don't though!
I got the chile lime, everything but the bagel, nutritional yeast and broccoli already at home!!! love them all, they always have great stuff for a great price
they are all so good!!
Love Trader Joe's! My fav is their sesame soy ginger salad dressing. SO tasty and low in calories and fat
The freeze dried fruit especially the two you mentioned are my go to snacks for my baby. It was a great transition from yogurt melts and it's healthy. He thinks he's getting a treat and I don't feel bad letting him have it everyday. My husband and I prefer the apple one.
Yes it's such a great option for a sweet treat! :)
I love using nutritional yeast on popcorn! Yum!
so good!
yum! great ideas for me to check out. i love the chili flavored dry mango!!! amazing! also love the frozen options- like orange/ kung pao chicken- not the healthiest but delicious nonetheless
+summersunsets the chili flavored mango is so good!!!
Try putting the chili lime seasoning on fresh watermelon. Yum!
The Trader Joe's Ginger snaps are amazing!
yes! I got those over the holidays last year!
They also have organic coconut aminos and organic red lentil pasta and both are great!
yes! Just bought those aminos, so glad they finally have them!!
I am OBSESSED with their dried mangos.. SO GOOD! :D
YES seriously amazing! So naturally sweet! :)
OMG, veggie options and that BROCCOLI RICE!!!
yesssss!!
Loved this video!! Thanks so much for all the new suggestions! We love TJ's!!
thank you!!! :)
Yesss!trader Joe's and Vegan? It's like you're reading my mind 😍 SO many awesome new products I'd like to try! TJs is life and you're the best, love the new hair girl! 💇
thanks!
I'm buying all of those spices!!! What do you think about the USA Today article that just got punished that says coconut oil is bad for you?
They're great seasonings!! I love them. I haven't had a chance to read that article, but I'll have to look into it! I personally am a big advocate for coconut oil's health benefits, when coupled with a healthy diet and lifestyle of course!
Michele Arnwine can you please link the article?
Michele Arnwine please consider that the heart association gets paid for companies to get the heart healthy logo from them on their items.. "follow the money" and use your own judgment :)
Dee La Soul trust, I'm very aware of all that and I have my own mind to make my own decision based on my own research. I'm just curious what she thinks about the article.
I've always considered coconut oil as something not particularly healthy, which was way I was so surprised at the recent coconut oil trend. It's mostly saturated fat, though it has nice medium-chain fatty acids. But it's lower in vitamin content than canola oil, lower in unsaturated fat. It's not bad, but it can raise both good and bad cholesterol if people fixate on it. So in moderation, with the genetics and lifestyle to support it, I think it will be fine. It's not "the great new oil" though.
*Source: first 7 links that came up when I googled coconut oil vs canola oil. B.S in Molecular Biology.
I love Trader Joe's so much. I wish you would do another update video on this!!
I did an updated one this year! :)
I love the TJ vegan marshmallows. Excellent in rice krispie marshmallow squares. I am sooooo gonna try that nut butter!!! :) Thanks for this, was neat to watch.
awesome, thank you!!
I got the chili lime, it is amazing! I got the triple filtered coconut oil but I use it on my skin and hair, so good!
I love the chili lime seasoning! Makes everything delicious!
I've never lived near a trader joe's until now. Now I wanna check it out. What are some of the best things to buy at trader joe's versus whole foods? how much does nutritional yeast cost a trader joe's?
Check out this episode and the previous episode I shared for my favorite trader joes items :) Prices can vary by location but are generally pretty affordable.
Speaking of dried fruit, I love the unsweetened baby pineapple.
Ooh yum!
Thank you for these great reviews! Looking forward to my next Trader Joe's shopping trip!!!
awesome!! Thanks :)
I love your food hauls I learn so much
awesome!! Thank you :)
Nutritional yeast is sold at the Walmarts here on the east coast! Super easy to find!
That's excellent! great tip!
Great finds!!!!!
will try
thanks Jennifer
I'm so glad you enjoyed, Jennifer! Thank you :)
The precooked lentils are SO good
YES so convenient!
I love trader Joe's, chocolate covered almonds... and their hash browns. I'm always looking for lunch ideas for my big strong lean 8 year old son. so the dried mango and coconut cashews make for great snacks to go in his lunchbox. keep up the great work! I love your videos.
YUM both sound delicious! I LOVE the Just Mango it's so amazing! So glad this video gave you some inspiration :) Thank you so much for your support!
Mind Over Munch thank you for doing the work I was trained to do but am not! I'm putting cables together for a living... as a health supportive chef! keep making me proud! lol
Omg I absolutely LOVE those spices!!!!! I use them ligit every day
YES so good! Me too!
love your trader Joe's finds :) it's a hard store to go into and not end up buying unnecessary (but amazing) items. :-P
you're looking so beautiful with your sassy red hair by the way!
Thank you!!! I appreciate it :)
Thanks, never shopped there but will now check it out
awesome!
I love the Trader Joe's whole organic sweetened cranberries you use need to eat a few for a sweet treat
I just recently tried the dried baby bananas and they are so yummy!! It's a great snack .. I usually grab 1 or 2 and that's all I need!
awesome!! so good!
I honestly can't believe you're almost at 500k... I feel like I may have started following your channel when you had less than 50k... you're doing awesome!!
that's so amazing, thank you so much for being here, I appreciate you!!!
hey you were in my dream last week! I was driving down the road with my friends and noticed the driver passing us had your hair (so it had to be you, obviously), and I get so excited and tell my friends that I just saw the mind over munch lady driving! haha maybe I watch too many of your videos??
LOL! That is so funny!! 😂 I think you watch the right amount!
Love your hair!!!! I'm totally using your version of the "everything" seasoning. Also I'm so excited to see that broccoli rice is a thing after you opened my eyes to the wonder that is broccoli slaw. I've never been on the coconut oil trend, though. Especially not now, after seeing studies showing consuming it is just as healthy as consuming animal tallow =/
thank you!! The coconut oil article isn't a super reliable source, and cites research that is outdated from the 50's and 60's... it also recommends highly inflammatory, processed vegetable oils instead of coconut oil. I will be sticking with my coconut oil, but you need to do what's right for you! Just remember to do your research beyond the headlines.
Love the hair! And thanks for all the videos
thanks Paula!!
My baby loves those veggie patties. I need to try them with eggs 🍳 😍 I love dried fruit especially from Tj's. I love the pineapple and chile mangoes.
that's awesome!!!
basically my whole fridge !
🙌
Iiiii love food hauls...don't no why!?
they are so fun!
Hi Alyssia, I saw cauliflower pizza crust and cauliflower cheese pizza at TJ's this past weekend and thought of you :) Cheese pizza is delicious!
YUM I love both of those TJs items! I was at TJ's this weekend and they were giving out samples of the cheese pizza - so good!! :)
I highly recommend checking out the Eat the Pizza channel, too! I originally started following you for the healthy eating tips, but it's a nice change of pace in the other videos
Thank you!! I appreciate that so much :) so glad you enjoy Eat The Pizza as well, thanks for joining us over there!
Always love your videos!
Thank you so much! :)
Fave newer product is coconut aminos! only 2.99 a bottle and great for those who can't have gluten or soy as a substitute. Tastes wonderful in stir fry. We are also a fan of the silver goat cheese. My kids eat it straight. Great list you made! love seeing what products people like to look out for.
YES! I just got that too!! Great item :)
Those dried mangos are amazingggg. I honestly think they taste like fruit roll ups!
they really do!!
Fun video. I always forget about Trader Joe's and need to make a trip. I was surprised to see the coconut oil with all the recent news stating that coconut oil is really unhealthy and worse than beef fat.
Yep, that article isn't totally reliable, but I encourage viewers to do their own research about what's best for them. I will continue to use coconut oil because that article encourages the use of vegetable oil which is extremely processed, offers no fuel or micronutrients and is very inflammatory.
That Everything but the Bagel seasoning is DELICIOUS!!! I bought a couple since it was $1.99 but I may go back and stock up in case they discontinue it. they switch and refresh the products often I think I will try out that nutritional yeast and the chili lime seasoning!
I literally go through that seasoning so quickly it's insane!
I love Trader Joe's coffee, wasabi peas and frozen Tamales the best!
Ooh yum I'll have to look for those tamales!
The green chilli and cheese are the best!
Caylie B my Trader Joe stopped carrying the wasabi peas and it's devastating 😭😭
LOVE their garlic salt. I have yet to find one better!
YES so so good!
I just picked up Everything but the Bagel earlier this week and I've been using it every day since on avocado and eggs. It's so good I regret not buying two! I need to check out some of the other things you mentioned. Thanks for the suggestions!
YES that's the best!! So good! Glad you enjoyed the haul :)
I can't wait to try those dried mangos.
SO GOOD :)
Jovan Rachel they just got a new variety called dried chokanan mangos that are even better
Alexandra Kritzman that sounds great too. I'll get both 😊
Dolmas baby!!! Delicious (in a can -- but no crap). I'm addicted.
I think I sampled those once! So good!
The Nutty Bits are amazing.
oh what are those!?
wow ....nice shopping list😊
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed :)
Loved this! I just bought some of that mixed nut butter, and OMG! It's SO GOOD! I may never buy any other kind of nut butter again!
LOL I'm so glad you enjoy it, too! It's so good!! :) :)
Hi!
I'd love to see a video about salt! Iodized vs. not, sea salt vs. Himalayan etc!
thanks for the suggestion!
i saw the mixed nut butter in the thumbnail and clicked sooooooo fast! i love that stuff!!!! but then again, i love tj's!
it's SO GOOD!!! I can eat it with a spoon!
me too!
Time for another trip to Trader Joe's. I love that place but it's a 40 mile road trip for me.
Looking forward to Eat the Pizza this week:))
+Cheryl Hock thank you Cheryl!! This week is a fun one!!
I love their Nutritional Yeast. I will have to try their spiced. I am staying away from those coconut cashews as they sound deadly good. Love these videos. ♥ Elle
Ha the coconut cashews are absolutely deadly good! Thanks so much Elle
Trader joe's is my paradise😂 love your haul!
thank you!! I love TJ's!
Nutritional yeas is also sold at Walmart (for people without a Trader Joe’s nearby, like when I’m away at college) I love Trader Joe’s but there isn’t one near my uni
cool!
The second i've seen them, I thought what I'd comment... could you do a paleo homemade version of the patties? For the overseas mates... Like, as a challenge... someday... :D
Appart from that, LOVED that video and LOVED to see all the beautiful things you usa guys have in TJ :)
That's an awesome challenge, thanks for the suggestion! So glad you enjoyed the video :)
Fab as always ! Though we don't have a trader joes in India but some of these are available on amazon .
Didn't know about the Everything But The Bagel seasoning.... gotta try that. 😀
It's so awesome! I use it every day!! Always happy to hear from you Curtis! :)
I am so jealous of those vegan marshmallows! I want Trader Joe's also here in Germany!!!
They're so awesome! Hopefully Trader Joe's will spread to more areas! :)
Love your hair girl !!! 💕
Thank you so much, Nicole!! :)
Yay love a good TJ haul!
awesome!! thanks!
I love these types of videos! Please make more (:
ok great! Thanks!
My favorite is the chili spiced mango. Have you had it? it is so yummy. Thanks for the great video.
it's so so good!! Yes!
