Delicious Trader Joe’s Foods to Try in the USA

If you’re new to the USA or just unsure about what to buy from Trader Joe’s, I’ve compiled a list of my favorite tasty foods from this beloved grocery store! 🥘

1. Slice French Brioche 🍞

This French sliced brioche is packed with buttery goodness. I couldn’t help but indulge in five meals featuring this delightful treat during my first three days in the USA! It’s easy to prepare in a microwave, oven, or air fryer, making it a must-try.

2. New York Style Cheesecake 🧀

For cheesecake lovers, this New York style cheesecake is rich and creamy. The cookie crust is especially delightful, making each bite a perfect balance of sweet and satisfying. 😋

3. Steamed Chicken Soup Dumplings ♨️

These dumplings are incredibly authentic! Just pop them in the microwave for two minutes, and you’ll find a burst of flavor with delicious soup inside. It’s a comforting dish that warms your heart. 🥹

4. Ice Cream Bon Bons 🍦

One of Trader Joe’s all-time favorites, these Ice Cream Bon Bons feature a crunchy chocolate shell filled with milk chocolate and a base of cookie crumbs, reminiscent of Oreos. Trust me, you’ll want to share these with everyone! 😇

5. Japanese Soufflé Cheesecake 🍮

This newly introduced souffle cheesecake has a texture similar to the popular kumokumo back home. It’s creamy and rich, though I found it a tad sweet for my taste. Perfect for fans of fluffy desserts! 🍓

6. Bulgogi Beef Fried Rice 🍚

This dish includes real beef and is so easy to prepare, just toss it in a pan after defrosting. Add a splash of soy sauce, and you have a quick and flavorful meal that’s perfect for busy students! 🥰

7. Pineapple Tidbits 🍍

These frozen pineapple pieces are great for smoothies when blended with milk or coconut milk. They taste amazing straight out of the bag too, although they can be a bit icy—perfect for lazy snacking! 😂

8. Mochi 🍨

I highly recommend this for anyone who loves mochi! Currently available in original, green tea, chocolate, and taro flavors, just ensure not to freeze them for too long to keep that delightful chewy texture.✨

9. Butter Waffle/Almond Cookie 🥨

These two snacks are extremely fragrant and crispy, making them perfect for a quick treat while studying or working on assignments. They truly are the perfect study snack! 😋

Overall, Trader Joe’s is a treasure trove of delicious options that you absolutely must try when you’re in the USA. From sweet treats to savory meals, there’s something for everyone! Happy exploring! 🛒
