GREAT NEW FINDS AT TRADER JOE'S 

Thanks for brightening up my Friday night! Love that you're so thorough with reviewing the products even if you can't try them yourself and that you show us the ingredients and nutrition facts.

White sangria with the frozen peaches!

Can’t wait for this taste test. Those apricots look delicious. I love dried apricots. I like when they’re soft not real hard.

Katie, I love your channel and your taste tests! Our nearest trader Joe's is about an hour and 15 minutes one way. Because of this, we only go about every 3 minths. Your channel is so very helpful to me, so thank you very much!!!

We use the frozen freestone peaches for peach pie, cobbler & use in salads

Yes, please try the diamond red! Thank you!

Peach cobbler comes in mind !! Yum 😋

The diamond reserve??? What an awesome find, Katie! I'd love it if you and Tim try it for the taste test but honestly I'm going to run out right now and see if my store has it. See you in the taste test 😊

That vegie stir-fry mix hits the spot for me. I love bok choy. I get the baby bok choy and steam it like I do most vegies. Interested in the apricot/cardamon spread. The cardamon will cut the sweetness of the apricots. Don't think I've had sundried apricots since I was a child. Used to spend some of my 1950s childhood summers in the Santa Clara Valley, which was all apricot orchards. They would lay out the 'cots to dry on pallets. All gone now and the Valley is now called Silicon Valley.

Frozen peaches makes an excellent peach cobbler!

Love your channel and your review. Whats the name of the song in your introduction. Love it. ❤

White (dry) vermouth is great for braising and deglazing. It lasts a long time in the fridge. Longer than white wine for me. I haven't tried it in pasta/fish sauces, but regularly use it for pork chops and chicken. Try using a potato masher for whole tomatoes if using your hands isn't appealing. Careful to avoid the squirt!

Yay bought the Marzanos today as well!

Hi Katie! Thanks as always for what you do. FYI: on Wednesdays Sprouts has $5 sushi. They are make it fresh all day in the Deli area. The Veggie one is great!

Shopped at TJs today and saw the 19 crimes Martha Stewart on the shelf with no price posted. When I asked the cashier to check to price his eyes bugged out at the $1.99 price.said I’d get another bottle and be right back. lol. I also picked up up two bottles of the diamond reserve cab..so I have a nice range to try. Thanks for the recommendations.

I miss your “what I eat in a day” videos or maybe you can do a video of what foods Tim packs for work? I’m curious how you prepare the items you buy in your hauls. I never know what to do with the new fun items I get at TJs.

The new crispy rice cakes with mango are delicious too!

Those donut nectarines are so so so so so good

I need to grab those mango sticky rice cakes!

I LOVE dried apricots! I don't dare buy a big as I could easily just gobble up the whole thing right away.

Love that you shop three stores to make your best pico😅. IYKYK, right?

I drink iced tea all day..try it..brew the tea strong then add tons of ice and lemon etc 😊

Girl, I tried Kimmap this week! I love it!

The closest Trader Joe's is 2 hours away from me. So when I go, I buy things I think I would like. Try them out, so next time I can stock up

Yes! Please TT the Cabernet Sauvignon! 🍷

Katie! You have to try the Aglio e olio seasoning on your avocado toast, it’s amazing!

TJ’s has had peaches before. They are really good with cottage cheese or in a salsa too.

I just made the best homemade pesto too! Love adding in arugula and pistachios to it!

I have never heard of donut nectarines....have to try them.

What about stir-frying the veggies with the new yuzu miso you picked up last week? Would love to hear your thoughts on the combo!

The apricots sound sooh good!

oooh i like stir fry and this comes with bok choy, i'd add tofu to mine if i made a stir fry with it. i'll have to get that next time i go!

I was intrigued by the mango sticky rice crisps, but figured I'd wait to see what you guys thought before buying it. I'm going to venture to say that you probably liked the Dark Chocolate Dipped French Butter Cookies. I took my niece and nephew to TJ's the other day, and they talked me into buying them some. They shared one with me, and they were good. Can't wait to hear how your tomato sauce turns out.

Love your wine selections. Going to check it out in my store. I also like the apricot cardamom spread. Spicy

The mango sticky rice sounds nice! I’ve had TJ sushi rolls years ago but honestly don’t remember their taste

I will have to get to Trader Joe’s this week😀

I'm thrilled to see a new olive oil! The Kalamazoo olive oil they used to sell is no more, amd that was my favorite one. I was told they were looking for a new supplier. So I'll definitely be purchasing the one in this haul, especially since it's only from one country! That usually means it's a better quality. Hopefully, this one is good!

Looking forward to the dark choc dipped French butter cookies. I recently got a new coffee grinder so I can start buying the TJ's whole bean coffees again. I haven't had a bad one yet.

Katie, thanks for your haul and honest reviews! The jicama slaw should be full, in my book, to warrant that size container. I always enjoy hearing what you have to say about the beer and wine at this store since they offer a variety of products. I am looking forward to the taste test! BTW, I hope you and Tim enjoy your upcoming trip together!

Have fun in NYC

I’m interested in the canned whole peeled tomatoes! Question: why do you buy your onions at Sprouts and not TJ’s? If you like olives in your martini try getting it “dirty “.❤

I visited my store very early this morning in order to avoid the worst of the heat, and had the same reaction to the new Jicama slaw. I was all excited until I picked it up. Not only did it look & feel half full, but the veggies looked so sad, that I actually turned the carton around to make sure it wasn't somehow outdated! I chose to put it back on the shelf. I hope it tastes better than it looks!

Thank you so much for sharing.❤

make ice tea to beat the heat

Bok choy is excellent. Try grilling the whole leaves w whatever marinade 😻 A dirty martini is my #1 favorite cocktail 🫒

I bought the California Roll it was good

So many good things to try. I don’t know what I’m more excited about, the mango rice crisp or the sun dried apricots. I bet the new Assam Golden black tea would be good as a sun tea. Curious about the veggie roll, didn’t they come out with a similar product last year that was a little pricey? I can tell this your taste test will be fantastic

Looking forward to reviews. 😊

I’ve been. Using crudeness peach slices from TJ’s for years for my smoothies. Looks like they changed suppliers since the packaging is different.

Shockingly my store had the bubble waffles from last week (?) in stock and I am sadly obsessed. This is not something I need to know about! 😂😂

Where are the Patio Chips this year?

Great information

I’m familiar with donut peaches 🍩 🍑 but not nectarines

Great Finds!

Are you not doing Aldi anymore?

Here in NY they don't sell wine in our Trader Joe's. Only beer. It's a law of some kind. Wish they had the wine!

😂"... sniffing my arm while I'm eating.."😂 Curious..Do you not imitation crab? Isn't it vegetarian?😕 Also, I keep forgetting to say that you have the greatest laugh - like when you laugh during your taste tests with Tim💕

Make sure you remove the “strings” on the snow peas.

Anything you eat that is pitted can always have a pit or piece of pit...Always proceed with caution....

I just drove 2 hours to a TJ that sells alcohol so please open the wine!

Maybe that jicama container just didn't fill well

You almost got the pronunciation of Bahia right. Only the 'hi' is pronounced 'ee'🙂

No (pine) nuts in your pesto? I have never seen donut nectarine around where I am so I’m hoping it’s in my store!! Love the stone fruits in season. BTW, Crete is not pronounced Crate but more like Crit

I see sooooo many things I’d like to run down to Trader Joe’s and buy but my wallet doesn’t approve yet😢

The tea and coffee packaging is very festive and would make great gifts! I'm voting for the Zinfadel for the taste test.

Those sushi rolls are not worth a dime. Very disappointing. I hope they get rid of them for something else in the Fresh section.

Packaging packaging packaging - tomatoes? Nectarines? Ugh.

Turn the peaches into a bbq sauce.

Isn't the imitation crab meat version "vegetarian" based?

Chardonnays should never be sweet yucky 😢

If you love vegetarian sushi, those are the easiest to make yourself for basically free.

You eat eggs?? I thought you were vegan? 😂

I went today after work, did t get to go last week so I had a big haul. So excited too tory all the things. We did tory get the sushi yet but I remember those days and will be looking out. Hugs friend Elissa modesto cali @elissa_tc
