The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

I know we have threads dedicated to specific beauty brands but I didnโ€™t really see one dedicated or updated for all things Trader Joeโ€™s. It could be beauty, skincare, haircare, household or grocery items. Post your finds here so others could be on a lookout of what to find or is newly released at their local store. It could also be something you think people should try. Their beauty section is so underrated and most people donโ€™t even know they have a beauty aisle.  Their candles and seasonal items are amazing and they always have unique snacks.

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@CookieGirl1, that is funny. ๐Ÿ˜† I know that there was a controversy surrounding them when they first became available (last year, I think) and I can understand how there are mixed feelings. This is the first time I've had frozen kimbap that needed to be microwaved ๐Ÿค”, so I had some skepticism going in, but I was presently surprised. Have you had kimbap before? Either way, if you're interested in trying TJ's version, they are worth checking out. 

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@itsfi I actually haven't ever had it before; I guess I need to actually look at what it is and then consider picking up a box next time I go.

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@CookieGirl1, that sounds like a good approach. Iโ€™ve had a couple of discussions (yep, food is a big topic of conversation ๐Ÿ˜†) with friends and family about these treats and similar ones, including freshly made kimbap, and we were all impressed with many components of the TJs version.

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

Oh I need to visit my local TJ soon @itsfi . I love these kinds of snacks from TJ ๐Ÿฅฐ

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

Oooh, I'd love to hear what you think of the TJ version @blackkitty2014

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@itsfi @How does it taste?  My Dad loves Kimbap. 

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@SportyGirly125, it's delicious! I was impressed. I think Koreatown in SoCal has some amazing food so I can't say how it would compare to the kimbap you might find there, but these Trader Joe's kimbap were excellent. There's a Korean market here and they have some good kimbap but I actually think the TJ one was better. I don't think it was because I was really hungry either. But, let your dad be the judge! Especially if he loves kimbap. Would he be up for a blind taste test?

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@itsfi @I think so. We have so many Korean restaurants and grocery stores around us that sell it fresh too. 

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

I have a love of Trader Joes, maybe because I love a gent in a hawaiian shirt, maybe because I love food, maybe because I don't have one close... maybe I'm just loving middle age and grocery stores are the new cool place to be???

My father goes south every winter and is close to a TJ's.   I sent him a list of some things to look for at the TJ's there to bring home.  He drives a small sports car and I had to laugh at the four full bags of groceries I'd requested.  Some of the beauty products I had bootlegged across the border.... 

Look I'm just addicted to these dried mandarins!Look I'm just addicted to these dried mandarins!

Can't wait for a spring/summer road trip south to visit all the fun grocery stores! lol

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@missjeanie have you tried the dried pineapple (the one that's plain not candied)? It's one of my favorite snacks. So chewy, sweet and tart! 

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@makeitup305 I have not!  I'll have to add it my list to try on my next visit!  Love this idea!

 

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@missjeanie They have it sometimes at other health food stores, idk about Canada. I don't buy it often because I'll eat the whole bag in one sitting! 

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@missjeanie, grocery stores can definitely be a fun destination spot. Seeing your groceries here has made me add those dried mandarins to my list. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ  

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@itsfi I have to hold myself back every time I open a bag from eating the entire thing in one sitting. 

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

Completely understandable @missjeanie! I feel that way with a lot of Trader Joe snacks. Same with the actual fresh fruit. Love mandarins. ๐Ÿงก๐ŸŠ

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@itsfi those mandarins are good, but I wish they had less sugar.

New candles

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@SportyGirly125, Trader Joe's puts out some really nice candles; good seasonal scents.

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@itsfi @Agree. These sold out so fast.  Less than a week. 

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

Ohhhhh these look lovely @SportyGirly125 Do you have a favourite?

 

Re: The Trader Joeโ€™s Thread

@missjeanie Raspberry and roses and then the lemon verbena.
