Trader Joes Taste Test 👅 - This With Them

[@sarahmanning525]

I love the Body Armour Lyte too especially during the summer for hydration when I'm not into drinking loads of water. The hibiscus flower is Jamaica flower that's used as a steeped tea sweetened into a popular drink in Hispanic communities. Those organic tiny gummy bears are my favorite hands down of any gummy bear made.

[@TheR00k1e2]

I want to compliment y’all on your background. It’s fun to watch you 2, but the overall set up and lighting makes it that much better. Especially love the lights outside; versus not having anything behind you in that shot. I’ve watched the backdrop slowly change over the years. And it was definitely worth any time you have spent decorating it. Take care :)

[@ThisWithThem]

Wow thank you so much for this lovely message. It’s so nice that you’ve notice the differences over the years ♥️♥️ really appreciate your kind words. Thank you ☺️

[@jim6214]

Love your channel. You mentioned Celestial Seasonings Tea. If you get a chance, try "Bengal Spice" with a little honey. On the box it says "brimming with cinnamon, ginger, cardamom and cloves, this adventurous blend is our caffeine-free interpretation of chai".

[@Kristine8592]

“It’s got electrolytes!” Always reminds me of the movie Idiocracy 😂🤣

[@jimhoyt5]

Kate was thinking of Black Forrest gummy bears. Also I find it amusing that Kate found it weird eating the dried hibiscus, then has no problem with the tea, the pea pods, chocolate, and all the other products made from plants. Hibiscus was actually listed as being in the tea.

[@aprilenger645]

Those organic gummy bears looked amazing! Kate did you try the pumpkin overnight mask? Did you end up loving it??

[@dawnvigil7386]

Trader Joe’s treats are always interesting and unique 😋 Thanks for sharing.

[@ThisWithThem]

they really are!! Thanks for watching Dawn!

[@Jeff_Lichtman]

Trader Joe's regularly cuts the bottom 10% sellers from their lineup. There have been many times when they've stopped carrying something I liked. The upside is that they're always getting new items, so there's always something new to try. Hibiscus trivia: The state flower of Hawaii is the yellow hibiscus. The Rose of Sharon, another type of hibiscus, is the national flower of South Korea, and is mentioned in the Korean national anthem. Okra (the vegetable) is in the same plant family as hibiscus.

[@ThisWithThem]

Yes that's true! Even though they might get rid of something you like they might bring out something even better!! Oh wow!! Thank you for the trivia Jeff!! Didn't know either of those facts!

[@LucyObi]

"Like overnight oats" haha! I love Alex 😆

[@ThisWithThem]

😂😂 hes a nutter

[@brightspacebabe]

TJs Colabs with different companies from all over the world. So that is why they have such good stuff. Belgian chocolate, French pastry, etc. they even have these wonderful jelly beans made in Ireland! Once in a while I have something that I’m like meh, but not very often! Love that you guys loved TJS.

[@imkristinamarie]

I love Trader Joe’s! I get so excited for your videos each Thursday! Thanks for the mug plug, Alex!! Love it!!🤗🤗

[@ThisWithThem]

Such a great shop! Loved when we went in Florida 🥰♥️ hehe. We love that mug!

[@AmineBec]

Trader Joe's is such a wonderful place to shop (I've never been personally☹ but based on your opinion, guys). I love all Trader Joe's videos you made & always hope for more whenever there's a chance 😊

[@ThisWithThem]

It really is awesome!!! Hope you get to visit a trader joes one day!! Glad you’re excited to see more videos of us tasting TJ treats 🥰🥰

[@lindseysellers4423]

I typically always drink decaf tea now, but that's mainly because I only drink tea if my throat is bothering me or if I'm cold. I used to drink regular then would be up all night and it took way longer than I care to admit to realize why.

[@OhYeahItsAmy]

Trader Joe's has items that are available year round and then items that are limited edition (they will release products for holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas, for example, that are only sold until those holidays are over). Also, I don't think tea is as popular in the US as coffee but there are still people, like my mom, who prefer it over coffee (my mom does not like coffee and my family drinks decaffeinated tea). Side note: Kate, the name you're thinking of is Black Forrest.

[@ThisWithThem]

That's awesome they bring out so many new items for the holidays!! Must be fun to go in and check those out! A lot of Americans also like to drink iced tea don't they! Ah yes that was it. Thank you Amy!

[@pacmanc8103]

Great video! I’ve been waiting for a new one, and one appeared today! There are a half-dozen Trader Joe’s in my city - I try to go once a week. On your recommendation, I recently got the mango slices - now I’m hooked! Thanks for your videos.

[@ThisWithThem]

Wahhhooo thank you Philip!! Second video back this year. Feels nice being back. No way!! So jealous haha. They're so delicious aren't they! So glad you enjoyed them too

[@lm08tr]

you missed the perfect opportunity to say “it’s not my cup of tea” 🤣

[@Rebecca-ck8fn]

I actually saw the hibiscus dried fruit at my local Trader Joe's. I considered trying them but had the same thought about it just being a flower for Tea 👩🏻

[@ThisWithThem]

No way!!!! Yeah, surely a lot of people must have gotten confused as I don't think most people would think you could even dry a flower to eat. Very interesting to try though

[@liljay216]

Your supposed to boil them as tea

[@Rebecca-ck8fn]

@@liljay216 The item at Trader Joe's was ready to eat dried hibiscus 🤔 it didn't require boiling into tea.

[@megocallaghan86]

LOVE Trader Joe’s facial creams. Love the watermelon 🍉 one, stocked up

[@ThisWithThem]

Oooo watermelon 🍉 😍 sounds amazing

[@Jadyn_Sage]

As a Canadian, I've never had the opportunity to go to Trader Joe's. Watching all your videos with food from them really makes me want to go!

[@madeleinetwocock4293]

same here!!!

[@ThisWithThem]

Shame Trader Joes doesn't go to Canada!! Hopefully you can visit the US soon and go to TJ

[@kates7277]

Canada represent! Greetings from Victoria to my fellow TJ starved citizens :)

[@rudyguerrero3219]

I literally just left there-they have the best premade salads and wraps! This is admittedly due to Kate and Al's good influence;. I hadn't been to Trader Joe's since I moved from Houston to Florida. Every TJ's video you are only fueled my desire. (I'm gonna eat my Super Spinach Salad whilst I watch. Best Regards; y'all are a delight.)

[@ThisWithThem]

Sooooo jealous!! Hehehe hope we didn’t make you spend too much 🤣🤣 enjoy your super spinach salad!!

[@tammyperritt3128]

Great video y’all. I agree with you Kate Albanese (sorry for the spelling) and Black Forest gummy bears are my favorite.

[@ThisWithThem]

Thank you Tammy!! Oh yea, they're simply divine aren't they!!

[@Rebecca-ck8fn]

Green tea with pomegranate is a good combo also green tea with lemon is good.

[@ThisWithThem]

Mmm great shout with pomegranate!!! I love tea with lemonade when i visit the US

[@aprilleiter1797]

We have those body armors here in Michigan and there's other flavors. I drink them all time.

[@elenacala]

American here, and I only ever drink herbal teas, or rather known as fruit and herbal tisanes. Its nice to have something warm and flavored when you don't do caffine. BTW KATE, Your thinking black forest Gummy candy from here in the US.

[@ThisWithThem]

Yes that’s very true. Nice to be able to drink fruity teas without the caffeine! Ahh yes that’s them! Thank you Candace 😀😀

[@astridcarter1065]

Omg! I love Harvest Snaps! The red lentil tomato and basil are so good!

[@ThisWithThem]

ooo that flavour sounds lovely!!

[@paulamayo337]

My brother 's step son-in-law works for body armor and he is always bringing home the new flavors and they are delicious.

[@ThisWithThem]

That's awesome, so cool you get to try all the new flavours.

[@TheWillMurdo]

Great vid thanks. Love Trader Joe's.

[@ThisWithThem]

Thank you Will! Glad you love Trader Joes too!

[@shaeden77]

Love some Trader Joe’s! The closest one to me is 3 hours away so I’m crossing my fingers that we get one in our town. Haha!

[@kristynandrosky7337]

Peach mango is the best flavor of body armor

[@brandonmay6927]

I've got to try those habiscus gummy fruits. Looks really wierd but I do like habiscus tea. Great video. Have a good one.

[@ThisWithThem]

You’ll have to try find them!! Especially if you like hibiscus tea!! 🥰🥰 have a great one too!

[@byronchandler5000]

Kate, I bet you had fun with Trader Joe's. You are always so sweet, funny, and lovable. What do you recommend when making fruity waffles or pancakes?

[@ThisWithThem]

We had lots of fun thank you! I recommend serving with some delicious whipped cream!

[@shandamell]

Black Forest gummies are the ones you are thinking of

[@davidlionheart2438]

[@davemcbroom695]

Americans couldn't find a good hot tea to save their lives but go down south and order sweet tea and you will find it everywhere.

[@ThisWithThem]

LOVE their sweet tea 😍😍

[@amandakgould]

we love eating maple with salty- couldn’t eat bacon without it 🇨🇦

[@lbednaz]

I've thought all herbal teas are decaffeinated. Now I have to go read all the tea boxes, lol!

[@ThisWithThem]

No, I think you're right actually. A lot of herbal teas are decaffeinated but we've tried a lot of herbal teas with black tea!

[@shaunstandring5289]

Hey guy's, brilliant videos I watch all the time just wounderd if you do American boxes.( I LOVE AMERICAN CANDY) maybe a little bit 2 much lol. But I would definitely buy some maybe on a monthly subscription basis. Nice to see you and your brother doing it together. You don't see this much nowadays and it's great to see

[@lindab2323]

Kate, Black Forest Gummies, maybe? They are delicious!!

[@ThisWithThem]

Yes that is them!! Black Forest gummies! Thank you Linda 😀😀

[@officiallytrav]

I still have never been to Trader Joe’s. I think I’d be immediately addicted. Maybe next fall for the lovely harvest flavours.

[@ThisWithThem]

I think you would be too!! 😍 it's so dreamy!! Ooo yes great shout!! Hope you do get to go in the fall!

[@tatersprecious5827]

Black Forest gummy bears. They're much firmer than Albanese or Trolli or Haribo. I like the Black Forest gummy worms more than the bears. That Harvest Blend tea... I bought 12 boxes this year because last year I bought 5 and ran out. It's my favorite bedtime tea!

[@ThisWithThem]

How funny I seem to remember them as quite soft! Maybe I need to try them again as it’s been a while! Haha no way!! Love that. Hope you don’t run out this year!

[@joannavictery9742]

Anytime a tea box says herbal, in America, it will be decaffeinated

[@somerflowers]

So many great Trader Joe’s items today! I’ve never seen those hibiscus flowers there! I’m gonna have to look next time! I looove the gummy bears and jelly beans from Trader Joe’s as well! It’s crazy how popular it’s become with how many people are reviewing stuff on line now 🤣 I have to go first thing when they open at 8am, or it’s just jam packed the rest of the day! Shoot, even when I got there 7 minutes before they opened the other day, there was already 3 people waiting for them to unlock the doors and 8 cars waiting 😳🤣 but you’ll love the isle of all the beauty and seasonal goodies they have! They used to have a pear lotion that was HEAVEN! Haven’t seen it in 4 years now 😢 kiddos also loved their chocolate waffles they used to carry about 7/8 years ago. I wish I could send you their frozen mochi they have! Their peanut butter and chocolate, and also the mango ones! Ohhh laaaaaaawd 🥳🥳🥳🥳🤣 party in my mouth! 😋 I sure hope you guys have such a fabulous rest of the week and weekend ahead! Sending you all our hugs and love, always ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

[@ThisWithThem]

Never seen anything like them at all! Wonder if they still have them. No way! I’m not surprised. Must be so popular! That’s crazy there is a wait before it opens! Can’t wait to go look at the beauty isle next time I’m there and the seasonal isle too 😍😍 ah no. Such a shame they don’t do the pear lotion anymore! I LOVE frozen mochi so much. Wish it was easier to get over here. I need to write a list for next time we go 🤣 the mango ones sound right up my alley 😍😍😍😍 haha I want a party in my mouth too 😂🥳🥳 hope you have a fabulous rest of your week. Say hello to everyone ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@rickgarms7656]

Yes, We do like our "nuts' in the U.S. As far as Rocky Road flavored items, I've never had any with raisins...always with nuts, marshmallows and chocolate. It's one of my favorite ice cream flavors. Likewise, you are correct about Americans being coffee enthusiasts, but many of us do appreciate caffeinated hot tea. I think the reason for non-caffeinated herbal teas popularity is due to folks trying to wean themselves off the caffeine. I would never have a cup-o-joe or even a regular tea before bedtime, but I would go for a nice herbal blend tea before snoozing. Happy Munching K&A.

[@ThisWithThem]

I thought so!! That must be more of a UK thing to have it with raisins! Ah yes great thinking. Thank you Rick. Glad you enjoyed watching 🥰

[@TeganHort]

You can order all that stuff on Amazon Look at the back of a small bag of chips or Doritos it’s over 400

[@saraatppkdotpt8140]

Thank you Sara!! ♥️

[@bekind3931]

I really like you guys. I kinda wish you would incorporate more games, not necessarily tournament style like the WTF challenges, but just one-offs on the daily. Maybe trying to identify a brand of chips or trying to identify fruit while your nose is clipped (smell being an important part of taste). Things like that. Could be fun.

[@ThisWithThem]

That would be a lot of fun!!!

[@chumpchange0585]

Kate!!! When trying the tea, you missed a perfect opportunity to use the American saying "it's not my cup of tea". In the states, people say it when they don't like something

[@ThisWithThem]

as i was editing the video I was kicking my self 😂 I was like how on earth did i miss that!!

[@ScruffyNerfhurder]

It's funny that you mentioned how many people must have called in to customer service saying the tea didn't make them feel like owls. There was a class action law suite against red bull because it didn't actually give people wings haha. So many people claimed that red bull didn't give them wings that they all got like 3 bucks.

[@ThisWithThem]

No way 😂😂I didn't know that
