Candy Cane Joe-Joe’s
Favorite Trader Joe’s Item #21: Candy Cane Joe-Joe’s (seasonal for obvious reasons)
Last night was the first time I tried these. I’m now totally hooked. They taste like Oreos infused with Peppermint Patties!!! Every now and then you get a little crunch from a candy cane bit. Oh dear GOD!
So many beauties waiting to be devoured…..
One of the things I love most about Trader Joe’s is that they have these really cool/fun/seasonal items like these cookies that I can’t help but try. Because their prices are so reasonable, I can just buy an *adventurous* item on a whim and not feel regret for spending too much money. When an item like this turns out to be fabulous, the price always becomes a shock! This whole box was less than $3.
I don’t mind if I do…
Eat them plain- or crush them up and top them on ice cream. Is it bad to have cookies this early in the morning?

Oh, yum! I’ve got some last minute shopping to do to today, and these are on the list! I also love the red pepper and tomato soup, and I always add a little bit of garlic and pepper. Happy Thanksgiving!

We just got hooked on them, too! 2 boxes, POOF! ALL GONE! So good. We ate them with chocolate mint ice cream, but crushed up in ice cream sounds good too.

These are incredibly delicious and addictive!

I’m positively seething with jealousy. I’ve wanted to try them for ages, and of course when they’re finally seasonal I’m not in the US!!

They’re vegan! woo woooo.
They typically sell out before Christmas, so I’m hoarding 2 boxes here.

I would wait in line at my Trader Joes for these. Maybe if I go early in the morning- otherwise there is easily 100 people in line. But, these sound fabulous!

Looks like it is time for another trip to Trader Joe’s. Wish they’d hurry up and open the Brooklyn store.
