MY Trader Joe’s MUST-HAVES: (a thread)

Coconut Shrimp - I stock up on these. They’re so good w sweet & sour sauce & it’s a great finger food for when you have guests over!

TJ’s Chunky Spicy Guac is their best guacamole. Don’t waste your time w the other ones.

No Joke Ginger Shots. Ginger, lemon, & cayenne diluted with coconut water so it’s not as hard to take as straight ginger juice.

TJ’s Crispy Crunchy Chocolate Chip Cookies. Seriously like crack in my house. We can’t stop eating them

Philly Cheesesteak Bao Buns. I had my doubts, but these are really good! (Tip: wrap them in damp paper towel when you microwave them)

Soup Dumplings! I like the Pork & Ginger a lot better than the chicken ones. They aren’t better than actual dim sum, but they’re good for a quick fix.

TJ’s Smashing Smores! It’s a must that you microwave these before eating. Omg. FIRE.

Maple Leaf Cookies. Perfect amount of sweetness. My fav cookies right now.

TJ’s Thai Shrimp Gyoza. Pop these in the steamer then pan fry them for that crispiness. *chefs kiss*

New York Baked Cheesecake. For frozen cheesecake, this is top tier to me!

Cheesecake Cones. Idk if these are/were seasonal, but if you see them- GET THEM. That cheesecake filling is bomb.

Danish Kringle. I got the cheesecake one and it was so good. Pretty sweet but pairs well with coffee in the mornings.

Sliced French Brioche. Best bread for french toast!!!

Vanilla Baton Wafers. My kids’ favorite cookies from TJ’s. I literally have to buy two cuz they don’t like sharing them

Soy Wax Candles! This isn’t food obviously, but they have seasonal scents and they always smell so good and are super inexpensive.

One of my fav snack combos: brioche toasts, pepper jelly, & laughing cow cheese! Sweet & savory

TJ’s Laceys Cookies. Omggg these are BOMB. Loaded w milk choc, macadamias & toffee. So hard to eat just one.

TJ’s Tequila. Seriously, don’t sleep. Very comparable to Don Julio reposado at a cheaper price.

Will add to this later possibly, but follow me on IG @TraderJoesGang for more!!!

Unexpected Cheddar Cheese. One of the best snack cheeses IMO. Pairs well with any cracker. Try not to eat the whole thing in one sitting

TJ’s Chocolate Milk! I’m not really a milk drinker, but I’ll drink this out the carton.

Wasabi Seaweed. This isn’t for everybody and it will definitely make your eyes water, but it’s so good!

Buffalo Chicken Poppers. These are like jalapeño poppers with chicken. Spicy, but v flavorful. It’s a big serving so I’d recommend for parties/gatherings. & only best when fresh out of the oven or air fryer.

TJ’s Coconut Water. Top tier coconut water! A million times better than that nasty ass vita coco shit.

Peppermint Pretzel Slims. These are obviously seasonal, but when they come back, I am stocking tf up. If you like peppermint & white chocolate, these are for youuu!

TJ’s Jalapeño Sauce. Gotta keep one stocked. I put this on everything- tacos, pizza, pozole, etc. Not unbearably spicy, but it has a lil kick to it.
