He literally loves everything. Most food channels actually are critical of things. It's frozen food, it can't be this good lol

[@Shakodancer16]

It honestly is that good. I was also skeptical then I tried a bunch and ohhh man

[@mech9388]

It’s not, lol. Most of these items are okay at best. We keep them on hand in our freezer when we are in a pinch or stay in to party and know we won’t be able to drive anywhere. None of it is great.

[@cee_el]

That Japanese fried rice has Japanese ingredients but it’s not a fried rice that you will ever find in Japan 😅

[@debbiebriscoe293]

I wish we had Trader Joes in Australia, there’s so many different types of food there & that’s only what you showed us. AMAZING…. Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤

[@zanec814]

Pair the corn ribs with the "everything but the elote" seasoning. So good.

[@MrAlwaysRight]

Nah don't do it, that taste like a pupu.

[@MK-oq5vr]

What’s with the strange hand rubbing each time you eat something 😂

[@TheHHIPPO]

Seal getting a treat 😂😂

[@cdubb4954]

We love Trader Joes - We eat the Japanese rice with bulgogi, galbi and pork belly. its so delicate in flavor that it pairs well with a more spiced entree.

[@treytison1444]

Mike will buy more groceries than I do in a month and say "This should last me the next day or two"

[@anseladams23]

For the mushroom ravioli, trader joe's sells powdered truffle in the spice section. Lasts forever and would be great on those ravioli.

[@lizacrochets98]

I second this !!! 👌

[@WhereBeansBeen]

I work at Trader Joe's, and I 100% agree with your assessments 👍👍

[@WhereBeansBeen]

The mini shrimp buns were definitely disappointing. They need some pickled veg at least. And the chicken kaarage, I felt, is just as you described. I thought that this was a fabulous review, and as always, thank you for ALL of your content 🤗

[@MikePhoTravelVlogs]

💯💯💯✅✅✅👍😀

[@spiritedreviewexc]

@@WhereBeansBeen Big Y (a local to me store) has something like a dill pickle medle of vedgies, it sounds like it would be good on it....I didn't mind the flavor though

[@mariaelyssia8269]

I feel like I can’t trust your reviews anymore because you say literally anything is mind blowing and delicious

[@donaguuurl]

While his comments can seem like he’s over-sensationalizing, those items are actually good. I didn’t agree with his rating on the chicken karaage though, considering it came from the frozen section it’s impressive and tastes good

[@ItsMe-zs3iy]

No

[@MaskedRiderChris]

TJ's pretty consistently makes really, really good stuff and this reminds me of how I need to get over to my local TJ's next chance I get.

[@jackepik2835]

I love how ppl still think frozen stuff is yucky. At least here in germany, most frozen meals are really good, especially the frozen fruits and veggies are even better than fresh one cuz they retain almost all of their vitamins and nutrition for a long period of time

[@mmmrice]

"Flakey fluffy scallon pancake that Joe could've ever traded for " plss 😭😭

[@haikuhsu]

Put the chicken karaage (or any friend chicken product) on the bubble waffles for a quick and easy version of chicken and waffles!!

[@meoweratormeows4198]

I find that the tropical boba pearls taste great when paired with Arizona green tea with ginseng and honey. It tames down the sourness from the passion fruit and overall, a great boba drink! The sourness is very stark if paired with just water.

[@FeedTeeTee]

Can't go wrong with food from Trader Joe's! YUM!

[@DvLnDsGyZ]

Mix the TJ artichoke dip with pasta!

[@StephandTimTravel1]

My bag of corn ribs were terrible half of the corn ribs. Didn’t even have corn on them but the ones that did it was pretty good.

[@meoweratormeows4198]

The Pad See Ew tastes so good with cut-up bird's eye chili in fish sauce. Yummmmmmm, I so need to get more! 🤤

[@nel7184]

Mikey you just inspired my Trader Joe’s trip

[@emilywynstra]

Pad see ew its my fav Thai dish as well and sometimes it's hard to find a local place that makes it! Awesome to know there is a yummy version at Trader Joe's!!!

It's not as good as he described it

I love your content, its just so chilled and relaxed.. a normal life like most of us.. would love to try some of these food one day

[@akabill79]

Oh love the TJ vids! But gives me Covid flashbacks when you were in Seattle locked down

[@AkaRedFallen]

Trader joe's does have a Fresh Garlic bread, in the fresh bread section, garlic butter is on the bread. It's in a plastic bag with a brown bag over it, best with melted cheese, highly recommend with the cheese put on 2 minutes before completion.

[@larberry100]

I thought processed foods was a big no-no.

[@Onetwothreepeanuts]

He'll eat anything and tell you he likes it if you pay him.

[@andriod8014]

Not all processed foods are bad. Moderation is key.

[@Laserfiree]

Try every single pasta from there Mikey!

[@debilei1078]

Their other pancakes is better; more vegetables, crunchier, but a touch smaller. Worth it.

[@brian.2023]

I wish we had a Trader Joe's in Brisbane Australia. We have nothing like the variety of foods you do.

[@robertnagy6125]

When he says it's not bad, it's bad.😂😂😂

[@ricecakejohnson]

Trader Joes, come open a location here in Pensacola, FL!!!

[@phoschnizzle826]

Yeah, tried that karage once, but won't get it again. Most was like a savory donut without much meat.

[@Melaniek1992]

You have to try the frozen cacio e Pepe spaghetti. So good.

Laughing because we had a TJs Indian dinner tonight. Lamb Vindaloo, Chicken Tikka Masala (didn’t have any more Spicy Chicken Vindaloo in the freezer 😂), samosas, and garlic naan. One of my favorite TJ meals.

All of their pastas hit!! The stuffed gnocchi is best in the air fryer.

The one essential condiment: their tartar sauce. No brand out there can touch it.

[@MrVovansim]

I'm probably the only person here that feels this way, but my local Trader Joe's is a mad max dystopian hellscape. There's no parking, the aisles are so narrow, you can barely pass another cart, and there's literally no fresh food -- everything is either frozen or shelf stable. There are some things I'd like to try, but I don't have the time to go to a store that offers nothing but processed food.

[@TimChuma]

A lot of places have pre-prepared food like this as it is 😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@jpark28 less than $4! Keep in mind, its quite a small portion but i had some sliced beef that i grilled up with it & it made a great lunch without paying $15+ for takeout lol

[@midala40]

What sucks is they discontinued many of the frozen foods , the best was fish korma. also, they no longer sell Milton's bread as well as the English crumpets.

[@conspiracionesy]

Never heard of Trader Joe's before but I can see there is some really good food based on the look and your reactions 👌🏻, thanks for sharing Mikey

[@Tokeepmypromise]

I wish we had trader Joe's close to my home town. There isn't one for miles around. 😢

You should season those corn ribs with some lime, a little mayo and Tjs lime chile powder oh and a sprinkle of Mexican cheese.

so i didn't like the sauce on the shrimp buns, but i DID like the buns themselves, I dsixed the sauce, and subbed some panda express sauce for it. And Vala ten times better. I'm glad you decribed the "spicy" crab stuff, because i was a bit nervous about it, so looking forward to them now!
