TRADER JOE’S ✨NEW✨ SUMMER ARRIVALS + SNEAK PEEK + GROCERY HAUL & REVIEWS❣️

[@kathy2933]

Thank you once again for another fantastic TJ’s haul! I recently bought the Basil & Garlic Monterey Jack cheese. It was delicious. I made a grilled cheese with it. I added sliced kumato tomatoes & a little pesto. Sooooo good. 😋😋😋 We love the Dutch griddle cakes. They just returned to my store, so I bought 3 pkgs & put them in the freezer. My grandson enjoys them when he’s with us. Love the dark chocolate pineapple sticks. After your suggestion last year, I now put the bag in the freezer also. They’re much better! 😊 Congrats 🎉 on scoring those bags. Hoping 🤞🤞🤞I’ll be able to get my hands on a couple soon. Love all your hauls. Wish my HomeGoods sold those pistachios. 🥲 Wishing you a wonderful rest of your weekend❣️❣️🥰💕

@@kathy2933 That grilled cheese 🥪 of yours sounds delicious. Your meals always have a fancy touch them to them which I love hearing about 🤤 So cute that your grandson enjoys the griddle cakes 🧇 I look forward to having the next one plain (no syrup) because I feel like the syrup made it a little too sweet and so the mild sweetness from the actual cake got “lost in the sauce”. Glad that you enjoyed the dark chocolate pineapple sticks frozen also. As always, thank you so much for watching❣️

Shopping sister! Hello. So love your reviews. Will try the Dutch griddle cakes. The dark chocolate pineapple sticks look interesting, may have to try. Thank you!

[@traderjoesgeek]

@@LisaMerideth-i8t They’re an interesting treat. At first, they seem okay but it’s the type of treat that the more times you eat it the more it grows on you 😋 Thank you so much for always watching❣️

Another great video! I agree the Taiwanese pancakes are so good plain! I’m glad you mentioned them, I forgot about them. I always look forward to your videos, thanks!

[@traderjoesgeek]

@@LizWatts-o1o So did I 😆 until I had them again recently. I actually stopped buying it because they’re just too good 🤤 Thank you so much for watching❣️

I'm so glad YT brought me to your channel. I think we're basically shopping twins! I buy so many similar things and also evaluate food in similar ways....you are now my TJ's guru.

Looking forward to trying the griddle cakes and the dark chocolate pineapples. So lucky you got the mini tote bags! I literally gasped with you when I saw them 😂

[@traderjoesgeek]

@@HL90210 🤣 Thank you for joining in on the excitement 🥳 they’re so cute 🛍️🛍️❣️I highly recommend trying both treats. 1 or 2 pieces of the dark pineapple sticks are the perfect sweet little treat 😋 and the griddle cakes - one plain 🧇 toasted up with coffee ☕️ is 👩🏼‍🍳💋 and so convenient for an on-the-go girl breakfast 🚗

Thank you for you videos. They analysis well with my shopping 😊. I missed where you found the Goodpop mini cans on sales?

[@traderjoesgeek]

@@elizabethlee2217 The sale was at a local grocery store so I didn’t mention it because the sale is most likely just local & not nationwide. Thank you so much for watching❣️

I've been enjoying plums from Target this week. 💜 I would eat that peanut butter & cocoa cereal as a snack. 🥜 Great job!

[@traderjoesgeek]

@@robino941 Glad to hear you’re enjoying plums. Love it when they’re nice and ripe 💜 Cereals are dangerous for me because I never feel satisfied unless I eat 3 bowls 🥣🥣🥣 so I try to stay away 🤤 Thank you so much for always watching and saying hello❣️

[@denisefazio6708]

Love the video. Can you tell me how to prepare the Kringle? Is it a breakfast food, snack, ??? Thanks

[@traderjoesgeek]

@@denisefazio6708 It can be both a breakfast food, snack or dessert. You can have it room temperature or a lot of people like to warm it up in the oven for a few minutes 😋 Also, if you can’t finish it at once, it freezes really well. I cut it into pieces and take out a piece at a time from the freezer whenever I want to enjoy one and then warm it up in the toaster oven or fryer. Hope this helps❣️

In Korea, the Yuzu spread is commonly used as a hot tea. I also really love it as a drizzle on cheese cake.

Sainsbury's in the UK sells truffle flavoured cheddar at Xmas. I love it! 😋

[@traderjoesgeek]

@@michellefathers1619 I would love to go to Sainsbury one day❣️Trader Joe’s also has a truffle cheddar cheese that comes out during the holidays 🎄 by a brand called truffle trove which is really yummy 😋 Thank you so much for watching all the way from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@suzannelawson9215]

Just read in today's newspaper that people are outraged by Trader Joe's recent prices! Someone showed a receipt of $144.00 for very few things, (That was the price for food, no alcohol purchases.)

[@traderjoesgeek]

@@suzannelawson9215 Prices definitely have increased for sure 😭 Would love to read the newspaper article if you can share the link 🗞️❣️

[@suzannelawson9215]

@@traderjoesgeek Hi, I read two newspapers but just remembered it was actually a Google feed where I read it. It said California family $444.00 receipt for Trader Joe's go viral. (Not $144.00, that I first typed.) Source Fox 11 news

[@thisorthat7626]

Interesting. I haven't been to TJs for 6 months at least and I was surprised that the prices were almost the same as last time I shopped there. Because stores often have one price on the shelf and another when the item is rung up, I have had the habit of memorizing prices for years. In So Cal, TJs is much cheaper than Ralph's and other chains. And even rivals Aldi (which I am not a big fan of for many products). Cheers.

[@alanzemsky7695]

I tried the peanut pillows and found them to be so sweet! Wish they had less sugar.

Hi, Do you know when Trader Joe's brings out the porkless pork rinds?

[@traderjoesgeek]

@@QianaWright-m5h Not sure…they quietly disappeared so I wonder if they have now made it a seasonal item or discontinued it 🤔 I’ll ask the next time I go and let you know❣️

You pronounce Tim Tams way differently then I. Have I been doing it wrong all this time!

@@bigslice8810 Do I? 🤔 I could be pronouncing it wrong 😅

[@dsmith6601]

When TJ‘s packages cookies in a box like that, they dry out immediately

[@traderjoesgeek]

@@dsmith6601 Absolutely agree 😕 If I buy something from the bakery section, when I get home I put it in a different container and put at least half in the freezer or put the entire package in a ziploc bag if it’s going to be consumed within a few days.

FYI. The Mango candles have been recalled unfortunately.
