Furikake Snack Mix
Shoppers are rushing to the store for Furikake Snack Mix. “Have you tried the furikake snack mix?? For those of you who have had the ones from Hawaii Costco, those are better, but this is not bad a little on the sweet side. The wasabi peas are not spicy at all. They have a nice mochi crunch and have stayed true to some of the other snacks they have at Trader Joe’s so I would get this again. There’s not much in the bag, but I still liked it,” Trader Joe’s Obsessed shared. “I loved them,” responded a shopper.
Freeze Dried Strawberry Pieces Covered in Strawberry Yogurt Candy Coating
There is a new candy in stores. “These Freeze Dried Strawberry Pieces Covered in Strawberry Yogurt Candy Coating sound like the ultimate double-strawberry dream. They’re crunchy from the freeze-dried fruit, creamy from the yogurt coating, and definitely on the sweeter side,” Trader Joe’s List shared. “While they might be a little too sweet to snack on solo, we think they’d shine mixed into granola, sprinkled over ice cream, or added to a yogurt bowl for a fun texture + flavor boost. At $4.99 a bag, they’re worth a try if you love all things strawberry.”

Would you eat them as-is, or dress them up with toppings?” Trader Joe’s List shared. “I warmed them up in the microwave for 10 seconds and ate 3 of them with whipped cream,” one person commented. “Reminds me of the ones at Costco, they’re chocolate French crepes by St Michel,” another added.
