I absolutely love Trader Joe’s. I’m there at least three times a week because I can’t get enough of the products. Whenever I want to go on a Trader Joe’s run, I always let my roommates know, and we all pile into a car before we take on the store!

Okay, now these are some of my favorite things to get from Trader Joe’s that I eat frequently.

A fan favorite by many people that I know are the Chili & Lime Flavored Rolled Corn Tortilla Chips. This popular product is a must wherever I’m at Trader Joe’s. I always bring these with me on the go, and it’s very nice to open up the pantry and see these yummy chips. I used to go through three bags a week; they are that good, trust me. If you haven’t tried them yet, I think you should. They’re not too spicy, and they’re full of flavor. They’re perfect on their own or you can pair it with one of the many dips that Trader Joe’s sells. I personally like the Buffalo dip because I love spicy foods! 

Next, there is a cereal called Tiny Fruity Cuties. This product has been on the shelves for a few months now and it is so delicious and sweet without being too sugary. I always make sure this product is in my shopping cart whenever I go to the grocery store. It is such a comfort food and it’s very convenient whenever I’m too tired to cook after a long day of school. It’s also very filling, which is a big plus!   

A condiment that I always reach for is the Magnifisauce! I’m a big fan of In-N-Out, and this sauce tastes exactly like their burger sauce! Unfortunately, I simply don’t have the time to go through the In-N-Out drive thru every day (although I wish I could). However, I do buy a bottle of this sauce when I take a trip to the store and have it with my breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Whether you’re frying up some potatoes for breakfast or making your own burgers for dinner, this sauce definitely adds a lot of flavor to your meals.

Another one of my go-to snacks is Everything but the Bagel Seasoned Crackers. This snack is perfect if you want a cracker that is nice and savory, but not spicy. This pairs perfectly with yogurt or sour cream dip because all of the flavors go very well together. Although there are many flavors in this cracker alone, it’s not too overpowering and definitely not bland. Think of Everything but the Bagel Seasoning, but in cracker form!  

Last but certainly not least, are the Chocolatey Cats. I know the name sounds weird, but hear me out. These cat shaped chocolate cookies are so delicious and I always find myself reaching for them whenever I’m in the snack aisle. These cookies can either serve as a midday snack or a nice little dessert after dinner. They remind me so much of chocolate teddy grahams because of the taste and the cute little shapes!
