LOTS OF NEW TRADER JOE'S FOODS HAUL

[@irener1111]

I have to tell you what happened to me at TJ yesterday. I was checking out and they thanked me for bringing my bag. I said “always but I also always miss the little bags” My cashier said “hold on, I will be right back” she asked the bagger to take over and she took off. As I was leaving the store she was standing by the door and said “red or green, it’s yours”and handed me the little bag. I couldn’t believe how kind that was. I made sure management knew what she did and then bought her a bouquet of flowers. Boy did that make my day! TJ hires the best people.

The very best people we deal with in California seem to be employed by Trader Joe’s and In N Out. Always over the top, fantastic customer service!!!

[@KatieHespe]

Wow what an incredible story. I love TJ employees!

[@D7cooper]

Yum and yum. Thanks for the tips about the pizza salad and the crunchy cruciferous mix salads in an earlier video. Those were delicious. Best wishes!

[@catmama54]

Very excited for the taste test. You put out the best hors d’oeuvres and things when you have a party you truly do.

[@bonnielemmon8493]

Well I’m certainly ready to watch the taste test. The root vegetable chips look so good. I don’t remember TJ’s having any kind of root chips. The best time of the year for new and tasty things.

[@Emma-ql2lv]

I know that Spanish style rice hate to see you coming lol 😂😂😂 that and those sprinkle tomatoes 😂😂🤭

[@KatieHespe]

😂😂😂

[@ChineseAg]

Haul looks great!

[@kristinmarie331]

Great job Benson!!!!! That is awesome! Our trader joes have bad brown lettuce a lot lately. I also wish they would get rid of the bad seed oils and oil in general

[@KatieHespe]

I hope so too!

[@lisafriend5535]

Look forward to the taste test.

[@kmansf1]

Oooooh root veg chips can’t wait for that review!

[@annemunoz4407]

I tried the strawberry sparkling water for the first time last night. I loved it.

[@sbloome77]

The romaine harvest may not be so good bc I saw the same thing in my employee dining salad station. Romaine was browning!

[@lose999]

Sad face... The pumpkin bars are no longer available in my Texas store.😢 My grandsons are so, so sad.

[@Donna677.]

I like the Aldi sourdough...it's pretty sour which I enjoy!

[@justathought7221]

I was heartbroken they don’t have the sencha tea anymore. 😭😔

[@novafan1985]

The apple chips are AMAZING!!!!!

[@poketographyyy]

Great haul! We're in the weird stage of the wrap-up between fall products and the start of winter products. I can't wait to see what they bring out and what you choose this year! Looking forward to tomorrow's taste test!

[@SharonHurst56]

I left for awhile because I was on a Carnivore diet. 🤢 I learned I hate meat and I can’t get enough vegetables right now. The stir fry veggies look so good, I love Bok Choi and Napa cabbage. I got excited for the cucumbers because I have not had them in months, I love a cucumber salad. I loved the pizza salad also. I always like Vegetable chips so I am hoping they are on the taste test. If not, are they a good brand? Great to be back. I always loved your videos. Thank you.

[@KatieHespe]

Yay welcome back! Glad you’re eating veggies again, I couldn’t imagine ever giving them up 🤣

[@candifeinberg3222]

I buy the cassava chips often for my hubby. He is a diabetic and they are a good sub for potato chips

[@alanzemsky7695]

Great haul! I'm wondering if the new pasta dish comes in separate package with the chicken sausage. I was thinking if it does, I would only make the pasta since i don't eat.chicken sausage.

[@KatieHespe]

It’s all in one container :( wish they did seperate though!

[@susanyencer1320]

Could you please do the super happy in the taste test. Thanks

[@debbuller1492]

I am the opposite of you Katie. I will not buy a screw cap it has to have a cork

[@zeideerskine3462]

Xylitol is great for humans in toothpaste but bad for dogs.

[@marygrott8095]

It's not just T.J.'s that uses canola oil snd natural flavors. Those ingredients are in neatly everything! Unfortunately, it's nearly impossible to eat 100% clean.

[@TheChristinahere]

True, even Whole Foods has canola in 365 products. But Europeans have been eating these oils for centuries.

[@lindavogel9220]

Winco makes real sour dough bread using real sour dough starter. Much sourdough bread uses vinegar for a starter.

[@KatieHespe]

Oh really? Is it the winco brand? I’ll have to try it, thanks!

[@lindavogel9220]

Winco store brand sourdough bread

[@shirleyadkins4254]

Luv it

[@HelenMorgan-w3p]

Do you have a favorite frozen appetizer?

[@KatieHespe]

That’s such a tough one but I’m going to go with the new butternut squash bites. They are so delicious!

[@hydrangeababy768]

Isn’t all cheese made with animal rennet?

[@TheChristinahere]

No, if it says microbial rennet it’s veg

[@pativoogd2721]

I did not know what xylitol was so I looked it up and it says it’s a sugar that comes from plants and fruits and vegetables why would that have been devastating for your pets

[@dsmith6601]

Like any sugar substitute, they have devastating effect on animals, especially dogs. It’s also also known as birch sugar or wood sugar.

[@jessicamoore2144]

Not sure why dog treats would contain a harmful ingredient for dogs.

[@natashav6432]

I don't know why either but I have seen them !

[@KatieHespe]

Ya makes no sense!

[@glee105]

Can never get those smaller bags so sick of even trying. Such a gimmick.

[@coppperbooom]

was hoping the apple chips would have not had oil/sugar :/ would love to see your vegetarian take on the cheesy greens!

[@AlwaysHavingFun951]

She won't be able to taste them. Tim will have to try them in the taste test.

[@janehex]

"Toxic" is an adjective that describes the dosage, not the ingredient. There are toxic levels of oxygen and safe levels of arsenic. Sorry to be pedantic but I see this thrown around casually a lot on social media and it can be misleading.

[@hydrangeababy768]

It’s a shame Americans can’t have healthier food

[@hydrangeababy768]

As in seed oils and natural flavors

[@KatieHespe]

Yes I agree!

[@stephanieschmidt3987]

You should stop reading the ingredients... ignorance is bliss sometimes
