The everything but bagel seasoning for sure

Trader Joe's chicken pot stickers. It is my must have

I feel like in this video you were constantly defending yourself and that makes me sad. If the negative comments are getting to you remember: 1. Some people have nothing better to do than to nitpick 2. Maybe take a break from the comments. I’m a big fan and I’m very grateful for the effort you put in your videos and I don’t want you to burn out!

[@HBoyzFan]

Briana LaFrance Agreed.

[@MindOverMunch]

I have to put out the disclaimers if I don't want to have to deal with monitoring tons of plastic waste comments. It is sad, but true! Don't worry, I've learned how to deal and am not going to burn out :) But disclaimers will be there, unfortunately!

But I think as long as were all trying to reduce our plastic waste then its fine it's not always possible and some cases it's almost impossible to go plastic free. And people need to realise this

Totes agree. I hated that she had to apologize or deflect the 'hate' she must clearly get. Good gravy.....You know, there was a time when we would keep our opinions to ourselves and could absolutely still be friends & get along, even though we'd also 'agree to disagree' on things. #thegoodolddays Keep doin YOU, Allysia! Miserable haters, are NOT your target audience! 😋

[@Ya.boi.]

i dice my onions in big bulk and freeze them so i only have to deal with the tears once in a month or more. i really like doing it when the onions are on sale it saves a lot of moolah

[@jenniferboyce377]

Great tip!

[@Tai.tv17]

Clara Gray try putting a little oil on your knife prior to cutting. I use olive oil and it’s great!

[@Thellovespider]

I’ve been following you for a VERY long time and I noticed you were a bit on edge in this video, not your usually bubbly self. I hope whatever it is that’s stressing you finds a way to reveal and resolve itself. You’re still doing great work. You helped me change my whole diet for good. And since then have given me ample ideas on how to keep food fun and nutritious. I’m not sure what it is that’s going on (obviously) but always remember you have built a loyal following who will always believe in you and your content.

[@leahpeterson11]

Thellovespider I think she was just being more genuine and less polished.

[@MindOverMunch]

Thanks! I actually had a ton of fun filming this episode, I just kept it more casual rather than scripted.

[@aprilf509]

Just in case anyone wants to hate on you giving Trader Joe O's to the doggo, my dogs vet said Cheerios or the equivalent makes a good treat for dogs. He said there are so few ingredients that it's perfect as an occasional human food treat lol

[@allhalewendy]

Rice Concentrate or "rice hulls" are the fiber & silica portion of the outer layer of the rice. It does not contain any of the white rice. It is used as an anti-caking agent to replace the synthetic "silicon dioxide". Clean label ingredient alternative that is certified organic or natural.

[@MindOverMunch]

thanks!

[@jacquelinezeimbekakis4619]

Great video! The Bombas are my favorite. I’m also really glad we got to see a lot of your personality, likes and dislikes (outside of nutrition), and jokes and stuff in this video, which doesn’t always get to happen as much in the quicker more recipe-based videos.

[@MindOverMunch]

thank you so much :) I appreciate that! This was a fun one for me and want to do more like it!

[@RAE.ofSunshine]

@@MindOverMunch I really enjoyed how relaxed this was instead of fast, prim and proper

[@catails617]

Hey! Pro-tip regarding onions, since you said they make you cry: don’t cut the root!! You’ll get way less tear-inducing stuff if you cut from the top down and leave the root intact. Great video as always!

[@Rhayra]

I'm so sorry people have been so mean to you about plastic and other things. You don't have to be so defensive and feel like you need to explain everything and apologize, we understand! The opinion of people who only care about not hurting the environment but will hurt people to achieve that is something you can completely ignore, because they're being huge hypocrites. Nobody is 100% plastic free, that's nearly impossible nowadays, but you re truly one of the most health and environment conscious youtubers I know and you're amazing! Please don't let them affect you, we love you and we understand it!

[@ruthaylsworth8838]

[@sylviar549]

You don't need to apologize or explain yourself. We're human and we're just making the best decisions for ourselves. It's ok, get those preprepared onions! Also, I love the compostable produce bags too.

[@MindOverMunch]

haha thank you!

[@kiterafrey]

If you want to make a vegan scramble that is fluffy like eggs, or to be in a breakfast burrito, the silken or soft is best. The silken will take on the turmeric and yeast easier to look yellow and is milk enough you can add black salt or notch it up vegan egg flavor and get the egg taste in that easier.

[@ahhitskatie9094]

1. You are amazing! Please don’t become discouraged or feel the need to apologize because of some negative Nancies. 2. I am SO on board with you on Trader Joe’s brand of the Harmless Harvest coconut water. It really does taste so much better. Do you also feel that it’s reminiscent of the Samoas/Caramel DeLites cookies? 3. TJ’s Shakshuka is amazing! Since I generally don’t eat eggs, I use garbanzo or northern beans. Sooo good! 4. Bamba is amazing. No words to describe how delicious and wonderful they are (I may have stuffed my suitcase full of them on my way home from a visit to Israel 🤪). 5. Going to have to try that salsa! Good find ☺️ 6. Your dog is ADORABLE. Sorry for the long comment! Just another great video!!

[@MindOverMunch]

[@dogcatfamily2476]

You are so AWESOME! I had no idea they had such bargains. TY I'd love to see a vegan, keto & organic baking haul from Trader Joes or wherever best deals are. That unsweetened organic coconut and chocolate blew my mind! Can wait for those puffs in my mouth to munch! I pay double now or more for those 3 items. I'm not near a TJ but, will do a monthly trip NOW THANKS to YOU! My fav deal at TJ is not under $2 but, a great bargain. Their frozen vegetable or shrimp dumplings. Great savings vs a restaurant same great taste and they sell the dipping sauce too! Yum! 😋

I know a lot of it was defensive, but I enjoyed this video a lot more than many of your others. Your personality really shined through, and you acknowledged a lot of concerns in the “health conscious” community-touching on plastic, plant-based diets, food prep, etc.

[@MindOverMunch]

haha, thank you very much! Looking back I was more defensive than I wish, but I really had a lot of fun filming this video, so I appreciate you sharing!

[@randomanimeinu]

I love the tribe dark chocolate hummus! I never considered carrots with it so it's definitely something I'm willing to try out. I also love the seaweed snacks but I can't justify spending a dollar for such a small snack that won't be filling enough to get me through to the next meal. Cheerios for dogs are totally ok, too! I just check to see if it's pet safe and if it is, they can have some! My cat absolutely loves watermelon, I just make sure there are no seeds and he just munches along with me!

[@leppardess]

Even though we don't have Trader Joe's within driving distance to us, it's always fun to hear what you get there for low prices. It's amazing all what Trader Joe's has to offer.

[@heathermitchell-adams7669]

If we all did a juice shot for every time that Alyssia beat herself up or fended off the potential haters…..we'd all have our immune systems just a-buzzin'! As much as I commend your efforts to reduce your plastic and set a good example (in a number of ways), remember you don't advertise yourself as a Zero or Low-waste channel, so you don't have those specific restrictions to adhere to. As a human, living on this planet, doing the best we can is all anyone can expect from any of us, and other people cannot define that for us. We only have to be honest with ourselves about what that means. I live a Zero-Waste lifestyle, but I am only in charge of me and my family. Beyond that, I can only serve as an example for others. Sometimes, others need to remember that! You keep doing you! You are a boon to us and others who stumble across your content!!

[@MindOverMunch]

oh my! I hear you, I do feel the need to put out disclaimers or else I'll be replying to plastic hate comments all day :) But I'm doing my best! I appreciate you!

[@heathermitchell-adams7669]

@@MindOverMunch I appreciate YOU! I run a health food store, and I send people looking for health and diet (as in food choices - not weight loss) related content to you all the time! You offer very well rounded, relatable and realistic options. The research you do on top of that is what is going to help people make better, more informed choices and create a sustainable wellness journey! Stick that in your back pocket and pull it out the next time someone shames you on here!

You seemed super defensive in this video regarding your contribution to plastic waste, and that's a good thing. It means that you're aware of the problem. That said, as long as you're not contributing in EXCESS and also taking the time to recycle as much as possible, you don't need to stress so much. None of us are truly zero-waste.

If you don't want a whole bunch from the grocery store, you can take a couple off of the bunch. I have done that plenty of times but for the opposite reason, we usually get 1 whole bunch + a few extra. I will also split up the bag of grapes or cherries and things like that if I don't want the full amount. Btw, pretzels and the chocolate hummus is one of my favorite things, I can't have it in the house or I overindulge. So good!

I'm like you in that I love visiting the local grocery store even when I'm out of town or on vacation. If you ever find yourself traveling to San Antonio, Texas or lower I hope you visit a local H-E-B! I would love to see what you think about their brand products. IT'S INSANE the number of products that are available at the grocery store these days! I'm a former fast-food addict so thank you for creating content that helps me navigate the grocery store. I've watched many of your videos and I'm proud to say that our little family of three (Mom, Dad, and toddler) are on a path to eating healthier and more intuitively.

If you keep your onions in the fridge and cut them when cold they won't make you cry. Onions release a gas when cut at room temperature, when an onion is cold it slows the onions ability to produce the gas, so no tears.

I saw those overnight oats last week and picked them up to look at the package, and I do have to admit they smelled REALLY good.

People say don't buy peanut butter from TJs because of the price?! TJs has the cheapest peanut I can find. My regular grocery store's cheapest unsweetened peanut butter is $3.50 for 16 Oz!

[@MindOverMunch]

I agree!

I’m in Cincinnati Ohio..... I love shopping at Trader Joe’s I will be going there this weekend 😁😁

[@MindOverMunch]

[@Jennloveschanel]

[@MindOverMunch]

Not food related but your music... the first song, what was it? Your choice with edm type music is great!

Been with you since NY and though you are always clear about your credentials and experience, I felt you were defensive in this vid. I'm sorry people are attacking and judging. Just don't let them kill your fun side. Stop reading the comments for a bit. Or even turn them off after a couple days.

[@MindOverMunch]

thanks for being here! Every time I do TJ's videos I get nervous because I get a lot of plastic hate. I actually had a lot of fun filming this one, sorry if it was cut to seem defensive. No intentions there!

[@jujume2010]

I love their peanut butter. It is the only peanut butter that I found anywhere that had no added sugar.

[@gloriacristina5660]

Great video! I agree Trader Joe's has better prices!

[@MindOverMunch]

Yes they do!

The pink coconut water is interesting looking. I grew up drinking coconut water straight from the coconut and I never seen it to be pink. I wonder what makes it pink.

[@MindOverMunch]

I asked the people at harmless coconut water once and they said it is the type of coconut + not being preserved. So it has a shorter shelf life and must be refrigerated, but is not pasteurized or heated at all.

Did you know Trader Joe's is based on Aldi Nord in Germany, Alyssia?

[@wkdravenna]

Normally they are based upon a concrete foundations where I live.

[@MindOverMunch]

neat!!! thanks Byron!

[@TanjaHermann]

I doubt that since there are very few organic items for sale at any given Aldi here in Germany. Completely different grocery store concept. There is Aldi in the US, though.

[@LingLingW]

@@TanjaHermann Aldi bought Trader Joe's years ago. But your still right.. I would be delighted if Aldi would bring the Trader Joe's concept to Germany. But we have "Alnatura", denn's, Bio company for an all organic store. But their products aren't as...creative as Trader Joe's

[@dogcatfamily2476]

Aldi and Trader Joes are owned by 2 German brothers. Their story is very interesting video on KZbin. Also TG fun facts fyi...kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5iqcn6gjpp0ibs

What are people talking about? Most clean peanut butter is like around $5. Even the one I usually buy which is Smucker’s peanut butter is like $3 and it has salt
