REVIEW: Trader Joe's Crunchy Green Beans Snack




Pros: addicting as heck with a crispy texture where there's a satisfying crunch to each bite. Taste-wise, a slight sweetness to the peas balanced with the sea salt. Small pea kernels found in the larger green beans. High amount of fiber.

Cons: none

Rating: 6/5

Overall Thoughts: one of my favorite snacks! I could eat the whole bag by myself haha. Even my grandmother loves these (she took home 4 bags lol).

REVIEW: Trader Joe's Inner Peas



Pros: crispy, light texture. Not overly salted. Taste-wise, there wasn't a strong green pea or vegetable taste to the snack. Short ingredients list: cornmeal, sunflower oil, air-dried green garden peas, rice flour, sea salt, water).

Cons: not much nutritional value

Rating: 4/5

Overall Thoughts: a tasty snack that I've bought a few times, but no huge cravings. I enjoyed trying this, and they were pretty good packed with lunch.

REVIEW: Trader Joe's Organic Mini Cheese Sandwich Crackers





I had to try these because I'm a fan of anything outrageously cheesy (ie. Cheddar Jack Cheez-Its).

Pros: satisfying, cheesy taste. The cheese filling reminded me of the cheese powder used in instant mac&cheese, but in a good way. Definitely addicting. Organic too.

Cons: none

Rating: 5/5

Overall Thoughts: better than the original Ritz version. I tried the peanut butter version, which was good, but this one was the clear favorite. I want to try these crushed over a casserole or loaded mashed potatoes haha.
