No one does snacks quite like TJ's.
Trader Joe's
If you’ve ever ventured to Trader Joe’s just for a snack haul, you wouldn’t be the only one. In fact, it’s commonly known that Trader Joe’s snacks are superior to pretty much any other selection at a typical supermarket. Thanks to innovative products, unbeatable prices, and a wide variety of options, TJ's has always been considered the mecca of snacks. Think about it: How many times have you gone into Trader Joe’s with the intention of sticking to your shopping list, only to find yourself with a whole bag of irresistible goodies? We get it—we’ve been there.
With such a wide selection of snack options, it can be overwhelming to decide what to try next. That’s why we put together a list of our favorite munchies, from crispy, salty chips, to sweet and delicious desserts (and some that have a little of both!)
