One of Trader Joe's big flavors this summer is S'mores. We've seen it in the super popular S'mores Clusters and the S'mores Ice Cream. They've added one more riff on this summer favorite with Trader Joe's S'mores Bars in the freezer section. A graham cracker crust is topped with a brownie and a spongy| dailywaffle.com
with Chocolate Frosting! I've been on alert for Trader Joe's Yellow Mini Sheet Cake with chocolate frosting after seeing u/aswewaltz posted it in NY on Reddit 8 days ago. Every trip, I was disappointed. But today...finally... TJ's in the PNW have been blessed with the new gluten free sheet cake. So let's cut into it! The cake| dailywaffle.com
There are only 4 waffles in a package of Trader Joe's Bubble Waffles ($4.49). So let me tell you upfront, you might want to grab 2 boxes. They live up to the description on the box: crispy edges with a chewy mochi-like middle. Making them perfect for bending in a taco shape. Especially since| dailywaffle.com
With Trader Joe's Grilled Chimichurri Chicken Skewers, it's all about the convenience. Ordinarily I'd make chicken skewers from scratch, but I get the value in not having to plan ahead to marinate the chicken, thread it on skewers and grill it. But then, the recommended reheat method is grilling...so I guess the savings| dailywaffle.com
And the Beef Ones Too You know that meme of the guy eating a Popeye's Cheddar Biscuit and he says, "My disappointment is immeasurable. And my day is ruined." It me. We tried Trader Joe's Mini Chicken Tacos (and the beef ones, too) and man. It me. The four tacos closest to the salsa| dailywaffle.com
If you agree that Trader Joe's Mini Tacos are a shadow of their former selves, I've got something that's going to fill that hole in your heart. Trader Joe's Empanadas de Ropa Vieja. Now, of course, empanadas are their own thing entirely. They're not tacos. They're more like hand pies. I usually think of| dailywaffle.com
For awhile now, Costco has periodically stocked a flat Jack-in-the-Box-style crispy taco from Don Lee Farms. They came in chicken and pork. And now Trader Joe's is bringing us a vegetarian/vegan version with its Crispy Potato and Poblano Pepper Tacos. The filling is mashed potato and roasted poblano chile. So don't go in expecting| dailywaffle.com
Let's start here. Yes, I have made mole, so I get how many ingredients and how much effort goes into it. So it's no surprise that a lot of people just default to the Doña Maria jar. And now, Trader Joe's is serving up a microwavable version for $7.99 that's almost even easier. You| dailywaffle.com
Around these parts, Molly Moon's makes the best Salted Caramel Ice Cream. It's got just enough salt to amplify the caramel and you're never asking, is this salted? I can't say the same for Trader Joe's Salted Maple Ice Cream. To be fair, the salted part here is apparently the Salted Caramel swirl, but| dailywaffle.com
At long last, Trader Joe’s has graced us with Ketchup Flavored Lattice Potato Chips. Long a staple in Canada’s snack domain, Americans had to travel to get their hands on Ketchup Chips, with a rare exception here and there. Herr’s out of Pennsylvania carries ridged /rippled ketchup chips. Doritos even tried to pass off Ketchup… The post We Tried Trader Joe’s New Ketchup Chips appeared first on DailyWaffle.| DailyWaffle
DUDE. Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Spice Liege Waffles ARE SO SWEET. People went ga-ga over the regular ones in the light blue bag, so I thought, well, maybe these will be good, too. I was skeptical when I saw how small they are for the nutrition facts they’re packing, but thought hey, we’ll throw one in… The post We Tried Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Spice Liege Waffles appeared first on DailyWaffle.| DailyWaffle
A few years back, Trader Joe's came out with mini chicken and mini beef tacos that replaced a long time fan favorite. The supplier had to have changed, because they were a disaster of epic proportions. (Ok, that may be a little over the top...but they weren't good. At all.) Now, TJ's is back| dailywaffle.com
I knew Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew wouldn't be for me, but when I saw Trader Joe's Vanilla Cardamom Cold Brew ($5.49) I thought, ok, maybe I can get down with that. Like all cold brew, it’s smooth, not bitter, and you could totally drink it black. The coffee itself isn't super strong. I opted| dailywaffle.com
Trader Joe's made us wait until after the Labor Day holiday (again!) this year to unleash Pumpkinpalooza. But the first round of fall items -- pumpkin, maple, apple, etc. are hitting stores now. Let's take a look at what we spotted in the PNW. We went grid style today because there are more than| dailywaffle.com
I usually avoid Trader Joe's on the weekend, if I can help it. It's just too crazy, unless I can get there early. But I braved it on Saturday because I just knew there was gonna be more fall items. And we've definitely got another mega-round of fall products on shelves in the PNW.| dailywaffle.com
Everybody's got their favorites in the cornucopia of Trader Joe's fall offerings. But as soon as I got wind of Trader Joe's Maple Leaf Ice Cream Sandwiches, I knew they were gonna be at the top of the Must Try list. I've been a fan of the Maple Leaf cookies with maple creme filling,| dailywaffle.com
My local Trader Joe's has been a little bit slower getting some of the new-new stuff -- Cinnamon Rolls in the bakery section, I'm looking at you. So while we wait, let's talk about Trader Joe's Cold Foam Creamer and Spaghetti with Meat Sauce that hit shelves this week. Cold Foam Creamer Trader Joe's Cold| dailywaffle.com
Trader Joe’s Deli Sandwich chips. I like them, but I can’t quite put my finger on the flavors. You get a little vinegar, a little mustard, maybe even a little pepperocini (there’s nothing to suggest it in the ingredient list, so am I imagining it?!) . I halfway expected to get kind of a smoky… The post Two New Trader Joe’s Things Reviewed appeared first on DailyWaffle.| DailyWaffle

Trader Joe’s new Strawberries & Cream Cloud Cake has no right to be as good as it is. It’s two layers of white cake with custard sandwiched between them, frosted with whipped cream. And finally topped with strawberries. Housed in a plastic dome, the box advises letting it thaw for 24 hours before consuming.

Trader Joe's track record with Korean food items has been pretty good. Well, at least the frozen items that are product of Korea. Unfortunately, Trader Joe's Korean Style Bibim-Guksu doesn't quite measure up. I'd call it convention center quality. Mid at best. Let's get into it. To start, it's more snack sized than| dailywaffle.com
So you’ll notice a couple things about Trader Joe’s updated Margherita Pizza in the freezer section. First is that they’ve ditched the “Trader Giotto’s” branding and inverted the name. The old version was Pizza Margherita, the new one is Margherita Pizza. But in addition to a packaging update, the pizza bones from this pizza are… The post Trader Joe’s Updates its Frozen Margherita Pizza appeared first on DailyWaffle.| DailyWaffle

Have you noticed all the new strawberry-flavored products dropping at Trader Joe's lately? Sour strawberry belts, strawberry doodle cookies, teeny tiny strawberry rhubarb pies? Well, the summer showstopper is here: Trader Joe's Strawberry Mini Sheet Cake. It's topped with a cream cheese frosting with strawberry puree and speckled with freeze dried strawberry bits.

I have been so jealous of everyone buying that gigantic chocolate peanut butter pie at Costco in the last couple of weeks. I don't even have the room in my freezer to save the leftovers if I did buy it. But at the other end of the spectrum is Trader Joe's Lemon| dailywaffle.com
It's no secret that I am a big fan of passion fruit (aka lilikoi), so I am loving Trader Joe's being in their Passion Fruit era. From the Passion Fruit Rounds to the Passion Fruit Spindrift to Passion Fruit Meringue Tartlettes, I am all about it. Now, Trader Joe's has added a concentrated punch| dailywaffle.com
When it comes to guacamole, I'm more of a classic gal. I like it on the chunkier side with onion, garlic, and lime. So I went in expecting Trader Joe's Spicy Mango Habanero Guacamole to be too sweet. You know how Trader Joe's can be. But it's not. It's got a nice fruitiness to| dailywaffle.com
Trader Joe's jumps on the Dubai (Style) Chocolate trend with PatisLove's Pistachio Dark Chocolate version that's $3.99 for a 3.5 oz bar. Made in Turkey, the bar features a pistachio filling with crunchy kataifi (crunchy filo) bits and it's fantastic. I've been whatever about Dubai Chocolate because of the price and the hype, but| dailywaffle.com
These days, you usually see taiyaki used as a soft serve cone with a swirl of matcha coming out of the fish's mouth. But the classic filling is red bean paste (anko). You might also see chocolate or custard like these Trader Joe's Mini Taiyaki. They come 8 to a bag and you just| dailywaffle.com
Canned lentils have never been a huge part of my cooking repertoire. I didn't grow up with them and when I make lentils now, it's pretty much always from dried. TJ's used to have steamed lentils in the refrigerated section, but they were always a little overcooked for me. So when I saw Trader| dailywaffle.com
Orange is not typically my go-to flavor. And in most desserts it's whatever, take-it-or-leave-it for me. But blood orange is something special. There's something about that slightly berry note in it, maybe? So Trader Joe's Blood Orange mochi ice cream? Into the basket it goes! For me, the ice cream is somewhere between sherbet and| dailywaffle.com
