I saw you with Salem at the vet a couple of weeks ago in Portugal. You guys were right next to me, but I wasn't feeling well because my cat was really sick, and I didn't want to bother you guys as well. I'm glad Salem is okay, and I was slightly excited to have seen you as well.

As someone who works at Trader Joe’s, and also watched you for years (you are such a gem of a human🥰)…I agree that every country and city and town and village would be better in all measurable ways if they had a Trader Joe’s. The actual depth of consideration to humanizing and respecting both the employees and guests in our store s is beyond what our modern consumer society norms would allow. Bottom lie- Yes please. Love TJ’s Love you. ✌🏻💖🌈

[@blizzunt420e]

You should know that the reason their items are so cheap is because they use genetically modified ingredients in every one of their signature food items and the reason they’re such a huge list of chemicals in all of that food is because it’s genetically modified and what is called conventional food here in America if you were to buy any of those same food items as a certified organic choice, you would see that the list of ingredients is probably the same size as it would be in Europe, which is why anyone with the brain eats only organic or at least GMO free especially because they’re using us as lab rats for their science experiment they don’t even know what the long term affects of that food is and they’re testing it on the public right now so don’t be a lab rat eat clean food eat organic or at the very least GMO free .

Fresh or not, bagels are best toasted. Trader Joe's has a huge cult following! I'm obsessed with T.J.s! I love how there are always new things to try and that they have seasonal items. It keeps things interesting and exciting!

[@raphaelgomes]

yes! that's what i loved everything was so NEW!! you're right i should have toasted the bagel 😭

[@susansimpson5857]

There's always next time.🙂

[@tamarasteinmeier9272]

You need to go to Aldi next. It's the brother of the boss of Trader Joe's supermarket and it's not the same as in Europe. Their specialty selection items are really good and change all the time with the season. Also it's probably the best place to buy cheese and cold cuts if you miss them from Europe. The prices for those can't be beaten!

[@jessallaround13]

We definitely toast our bagels, even if they're not stale. There are other things you have to try! Please do more of these! The Asian frozen food is amazing (shrimp tempura, orange chicken, beef and broccoli, etc.), I love the goat cheese and caramelized onion tartlets and the ham/mushroom flatbread pizzas. The almond croissants (actually let them rise). The cheese section. The bakery. So many things!

[@caraziegel7652]

bagels that are FRESH - like from a bagel shop where they bake it same day - dont need toasting. but antyihng in a bag like that - toast it

[@brendateague9111]

[@jasminrobledo6257]

My partner never really cares about what I watch here in KZbin nor does he reacts to them. But I've noticed that whenever I'm watching your videos, he laughs at your jokes. 😂 You really are something, Rapha. ✨

[@daricetaylor737]

Raphael, don't be afraid of the long list of ingredients.....the USDA makes by law every company to list any and or all ingredients that the product contains and or could "possibly contain" (like cross over peanut/nut that could be processed in the same plant) to make sure consumers know everything that could be in it. We also list things individually that other countries could list together. Yes they are scary to look at, but if you take a moment to deep dive into each ingredient, they are basic and ok to eat.

[@Alizzzzzzzzzzzz]

the stuff that could be in it is also on our labels plus what the ingredient is made of if its not simply water. The ingredient lists in the US are just very long since often stuff gets added to make it either longer shelf stable or "better tasting" or both

[@cmm4156]

I'm going to disagree most countries don't allow the crap the USA does. They are literally banned ingredients we have here.

[@fivemjs]

Yes this is true but America also sucks with what they put in our food. I swear Bill Gates (he has way too much power) is trying to kill us or make us eat bugs. Literal bugs. Crickets, the new protein

😮$130.00 4 bags full of groceries? That is so much cheaper than shopping here in any villages in Alaska. That would probably cost over $5-600 dollars in the stores here.

[@fivemjs]

It’s so much cheaper than shopping anywhere else. At Kroger or Walmart I would’ve spent $300-$350 just for that amount.

[@beckyisloca]

So happy you did a trader joes video finally!!! I use to work there and i still love trader joes. A lot of those pumpkin/mapple items are seasonal though. They will change some of their products based on the season but some items are staples. Please do another one for christmas.

[@robertroeckle4827]

About the number of items in the ingredient list, the US requires every item listed, so for example if they use vanilla extract - every ingredient in the extract must be listed, same with spice blends. I worked in an ice cream plant and we had to list alcohol in the vanilla ice cream because of the vanilla extract.

[@owlpayson7841]

Yeah This is one of the few things we get flack for that isn't deserved. Our fda is really strict, particularly about labeling So you know exactly what you're getting

[@sherlockedkitty5841]

That’s what I was thinking too

That is not the issue with the ingredients. You fool yourself.

I'm obsessed with trader joes! It's so cheap and like you said, restaurant quality taste! You gotta try their Korean short ribs, the tangerine orange juice! I LOVE their chicken soup dumplings, but I usually dip it in their Gyoza sauce with chili oil. Amazing! Ugh I can go on and on.

[@RSkies]

I’m Portuguese Canadian, and would LOVE to see you review the Portuguese items at Trader Joes. They have a few (I’ve have only had the peri peri sauce, which is more African style), including a ‘salt cod tartlette’ that’s shaped like a nata. 🤯

As a fellow Portuguese living in America, when I discovered Trader joes It became my favorite shop haha.The pumpkin joe joe cookies are amazing, I wish they were an all year round item. I recommend trying their Butternut lasagna , Japanese fried rice, Chinese fried rice, Asparagus risotto, Pumpkin Ravioli, Cauliflower and Cheese Ravioli and their Hashbrowns.

[@Islandtiger]

Yay for finally doing Trader Joe’s! Hi Salem 👋🏼 I live in Hawaii but heading to Nevada soon to get my TJ fix, can’t wait to try some of the goodies!

[@Nightscream452]

Rule of thumb...if it says to put it in the oven...use an air fryer, the constant air circulation in the air fryer will make it crispy by evaperating any water/ice from a frozen item. putting a frozen item in the oven, the ice crystals will melt before the oven gets hot enough to cook, letting the food item sit in water & get soggy as sometimes the batter or crust will start to absorbe the moisture.

[@the_marketplace407]

“That’s funny but kinda sad” most relatable thing he has said

[@robynaboverubiesorpearls]

I just came across your channel and I am so glad I did. Your reaction and commentary is so funny, and your editing is well done. I am so disappointed that I didn’t learn about the Trader Joes’s sooner, especially here in L.A. The value is unmatched! Some of my favorite things there include the fresh ravioli. There are several seasonal specialties to choose from and some are there year round, like the delicious cacio e pepe. Their salad kits are also very delicious. The BBQ and Black Pepper Toscano is my favorite so far. I also like some of their burritos. They have all kinds, including a Thanksgiving one. I love to get their frozen mango chunks for my smoothies. I was paying $8 at Ralph’s for a similar sized bag at Trader’s Joes for $2.99. I could go on and on because there are too many delicious things to name. You should pick up their Fearless Flier newspapers; it gives lots of suggestions of items to try. 💖

[@gigirlmel10]

We love Trader Joe’s! Some of my faves that I always keep on hand for nights when I don’t feel like cooking: Gorgonzola Gnocchi (frozen) Korean fried rice (frozen) Pork soup dumplings (frozen) Kimbap (frozen) Tangerine juice (better than OJ) I also heard the gingerbread ice cream is the bomb! :)

[@mostlyvoid.partiallystars]

Their gyoza sauce is amazing as well as their roasted tomatillo salsa 🎉

[@onekristywhite]

Omg 😅 I've never been to trader Joe's, so I guess I'm the few of us that live under a rock 😅 Now I really want to go and shop there. Great video, of course, as always!! 😊

[@Stacynsingh]

Would love to see another video like this! Try the soup dumplings again with the chili onion crunch, the orange chicken from the freezer section FOR SURE, I love the sriracha and roasted garlic bbq sauce, and the everything but the elote seasoning (we love eating it on avocados). The dips are also pretty good, chili onion crunch hummus, the caramelized onion dip (we like these on the garlic naan crackers)

[@cherriberri7161]

Fun video!!! Great TJ food haul! Next time Raphael (if you like hot) drizzle chili oil on the soup dumplings it takes them to another level!

[@AnnettesMakeupCorner]

Their frozen (and non frozen) Tika Masala is amazing, and you HAVE to try the garlic naan bread 🤤 . Also their Scandinavian Swimmers (a sour candy) are the best sours I've ever had

[@ruthwillard9216]

Thank you SO much for your video. My son and I went there this weekend and tried some of your favorites. The Brown Sugar creamer is awesome. We also tried the Cinnamon Bun Creamer which oddly didn't taste like Cinnamon Bun but tasted more like Pumpkin Spice. We tried the Soup Dumplings and the BIrria Pizza idea (both were amazing). With the Chicken Drumellas I would suggest cooking them in the air fryer. They were much crispier. Next time you go try the Almond Ring Danish. So yummy! I love all of their spices for my cooking as well. Very inexpensive spice aisle. My son and I watch all of your videos and I have to say we just love you!💕

[@freddyamazin4167]

More Trader Joe's please! Enjoyed this. I like less sweet sweets as well so this was a great service for me. Thanks!

[@HotRoz2]

The potstickers and Shu mai is awesome. The jalapeno artichoke dip is awesome. I don't know how much you cook but they have spices that you can't buy at other stores. Black garlic, elote seasoning. mushroom unamai , cheese blend, are all great. I will think of more.

[@krishnavipul9216]

Love love 😍 seeing him makes my day. Mi just wait to see the notification Raphael gomes posted a new vedio it's my favorite notification 😂❤️

[@lauramiller751]

You should try the vegetable bird nests from the frozen section. They're really good if you burn them a little in the air fryer. My other faves are their dried mandarin oranges, lemon and raspberry yogurt cups, Scandinavian Swimmers gummies, blueberry lemonade sparkling water, and toasted coconut and dark chocolate granola bark.

[@monicaking7793]

[@YouthfulGlowBeautyRecipes]

I love Trader Joe's so much. You gave some great ideas for things to buy next time I go. I really like their Indian food. Can you try the butter chicken Indian microwavable food?

[@vhart1979]

Toast the bagels! Trader Joe's makes good Frito Scoops-like chips. They're organic and they just taste really good. Their organic tortilla chips are also really good. I also dig their frozen Indian food, especially the Korma Fish (believe it or not... I know fish sounds odd for a frozen Indian dish that is prepared in the microwave, but it's surprisingly good!). Even better than the fish korma, however, is their plain frozen naan bread. (Plain! Not the garlic variety.) Prepare it by sprinkling the frozen naan with water and throwing it in a really hot oven for 2-3 min; serve with with butter.

[@rivermoon4825]

I really love their almond butter chocolate cups. Those things are to die for. But my go-to is always the chicken fried rice and orange chicken.

I will say Trader Joe’s has great prices! We recently had a roommate move in and I went shopping with our combined lists and was surprised to find that I got our normal fruits/veggies/bulk items and meats and maybe 5-6 processed items that they asked for brought the bill up an additional $100. Usually the two of us spend about $250 a month, so I was amazed almost half of that was spent on just some quick to disappear packaged items. I think it depends on what region of the US you’re in too though!

Love your content! Next time you go to Trader Joe’s please try the garlic sauce in the refrigerated section with some pita chips. It’s my favorite item and it’s soooo good! Also great is the Unexpected Cheddar in the cheese section. If you are in Los Angeles please try going to the Korean chain HMart and the Chinese market 99 Ranch. There is a brand new 99 Ranch which seems designed for a higher end customer in the Shops at Santa Anita. That mall is great to explore too, full of great Asian restaurants like Din Tai Fung (soup dumplings), Hai Di Lao (hot pot), Uncle Tetsu (Japanese cheesecake) etc. we also have great Japanese markets like Mitsuwa and Tokyo Central (avoid the one in Little Tokyo, it’s too small).

Must try: chocolate chip mint ice cream*, vanilla soy cream, Japanese fried rice*, orange chicken, sesame sticks*, cinnamon graham crackers*, chocolate chip dunkers, almond biscotti, banana chips*, reduced sugar blueberry preserves*, speculoos cookie butter spread, apple cider juice*, unfiltered apple juice, after dark coffee*, cocoa truffles*, organic milk chocolate truffle bar*, tea tree shampoo and conditioner*, advent calendar for dogs. Honestly, anything that catches your attention is worth at least trying.

Apple cider a beverage like apple juice but less sweet and with cinnamon, it can be a cold drink but best warm in a mug in the fall. It’s SO yummy when you find the right brand 🍁 🍎🍏 Also really yummy with the addition of some caramel vodka!! Or just a drizzle of caramel. Must try!!!

Raphael the apple cider donuts are made from cider (Apples) being heavily boiled down then mixed it everything need to make cake like donuts including like nutmeg for example. I think your thinking a different apple cider as in apple cider vinegar which these donuts aren't. They are savory in a way and that's why traditionally a cinnamon sugar they are rolled in still hot and best when warmed. Lots of love from Northern Michigan ❤️
