I tried it so you don’t have to.

Brutally honest, occasionally dramatic, and always snack-obsessed—this is where I spill the tea on what’s worth your cart space and what’s better left on the shelf. No fluff, no filters, just real-deal reviews with a side of sass.

Sweet Cinnamon Filled Korean Pancakes

Everyone has been raving about this product so I was really excited to try it! The exterior of the pancake was crispy and the interior was thick and gooey. The cinnamon was the star of the show, as it should be! While I enjoyed this product, I wish they were larger. Now knowing how small these are, I’d pair them with ice cream.

These were delicious but I they won’t be a staple in my life! I can’t wait to try the remainder of the pancakes with ice cream. Now the real question is - what ice cream?!

Autumn Maple Coffee

Everyone asks me what TJ’s product I can’t live without… this is that product. This makes my whole kitchen smell like maple while providing a subtle flavor to actual coffee. I tried this for the first time last year and managed to ration out 5 boxes. This year I purchased 12 boxes and will be back for MORE! I drink this coffee year round (switching between this and the iconic Gloria Jean’s French vanilla). If you couldn’t tell by my stockpile… I am obsessed with this product. I highly recommend you get your hands on this! Have you tried this coffee?

Pumpkin Overnight Oats

To be honest with you, I haven’t enjoy TJ’s overnight oats in the past. I picked this up because I was intrigued by the pumpkin… and I thoroughly enjoyed it! This tasted like a cleaner version of a pumpkin pie filling. The pumpkin was not overpowering at all which is great for those who aren’t super into it. I took off two points because of the texture. It was just a big pile of mush, which wasn’t appealing. I would have loved for the oats to be a tad more bulky versus just blending in with everything else. With that being said, the combo of the oats, strawberries and pecans easily bumped this product up to a 9/10. I can look past the consistency with all the added chazzle dazzle, but obviously I want to base my review on the product by itself! Have you tried the overnight oats at TJ’s?!

Crunchy Cinnamon Squares

Believe it or not, this was my first experience with a TJ’s cereal… and I didn't even use it in a traditional manner (aka with milk). I used this product to make 3 ingredient cinnamon crunch treats and it worked out nicely! I enjoyed the price of these and how well they worked in my recipe, but I don’t know if this would be my first choice of cereal. The squares were puffed so I found them to be less crunchy and the cinnamon flavor was pretty muted. Overall, I wouldn’t pick this up for traditional cereal purposes but I would definitely use them again for my recipe!
