"Flakey fluffy scallon pancake that Joe could've ever traded for " plss 😭😭
When he says it's not bad, it's bad.😂😂😂
That Japanese fried rice has Japanese ingredients but it’s not a fried rice that you will ever find in Japan 😅
He literally loves everything. Most food channels actually are critical of things. It's frozen food, it can't be this good lol

It’s not, lol. Most of these items are okay at best. We keep them on hand in our freezer when we are in a pinch or stay in to party and know we won’t be able to drive anywhere. None of it is great.

I was just thinking if he's saying its good for frozen ready made meals or if its just really good in general. With that said, everything I buy fromTJs I genuinely love lol
I wish we had Trader Joes in Australia, there’s so many different types of food there & that’s only what you showed us. AMAZING…. Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤
Can't go wrong with food from Trader Joe's! YUM!
Mike will buy more groceries than I do in a month and say "This should last me the next day or two"
Pair the corn ribs with the "everything but the elote" seasoning. So good.

The mini shrimp buns were definitely disappointing. They need some pickled veg at least. And the chicken kaarage, I felt, is just as you described. I thought that this was a fabulous review, and as always, thank you for ALL of your content 🤗

Long time TJ customer and had 90% of what he reviewed. They are legit. 👍👍👍
I find that the tropical boba pearls taste great when paired with Arizona green tea with ginseng and honey. It tames down the sourness from the passion fruit and overall, a great boba drink! The sourness is very stark if paired with just water.
What’s with the strange hand rubbing each time you eat something 😂

I love how ppl still think frozen stuff is yucky. At least here in germany, most frozen meals are really good, especially the frozen fruits and veggies are even better than fresh one cuz they retain almost all of their vitamins and nutrition for a long period of time
Put the chicken karaage (or any friend chicken product) on the bubble waffles for a quick and easy version of chicken and waffles!!
For the mushroom ravioli, trader joe's sells powdered truffle in the spice section. Lasts forever and would be great on those ravioli.

We love Trader Joes - We eat the Japanese rice with bulgogi, galbi and pork belly. its so delicate in flavor that it pairs well with a more spiced entree.
If Mikey says something is spicy, you can take that to the bank 😂
I love Trader Joe's.
Funny how you eat spaghetti just like ramen noodles!
Trader joe's does have a Fresh Garlic bread, in the fresh bread section, garlic butter is on the bread. It's in a plastic bag with a brown bag over it, best with melted cheese, highly recommend with the cheese put on 2 minutes before completion.

I feel like TJs ripped that off from Costco. Costco sells a 2 pack of it and suddenly I started seeing it at TJs. I get mine at TJs now because I'm there way more often than Costco.
Mikey you just inspired my Trader Joe’s trip
Mix the TJ artichoke dip with pasta!
Trader Joes, come open a location here in Pensacola, FL!!!
I feel like I can’t trust your reviews anymore because you say literally anything is mind blowing and delicious

While his comments can seem like he’s over-sensationalizing, those items are actually good. I didn’t agree with his rating on the chicken karaage though, considering it came from the frozen section it’s impressive and tastes good

Really LOVE WATCHING YOU EAT & REVIEW FOOD. I SO MISS TRADER JOE'S.😍
TJ's pretty consistently makes really, really good stuff and this reminds me of how I need to get over to my local TJ's next chance I get.

I read that 7-11 in the States are going to start carrying Japanese food
All of their pastas hit!! The stuffed gnocchi is best in the air fryer.
Wow, I’m trying the seafood bowl for sure and the jalapeño won tons. Thanks for the dinner tips. Yum! 🍀👍🤠
Awesome job Mikey drop a like .
Laughing because we had a TJs Indian dinner tonight. Lamb Vindaloo, Chicken Tikka Masala (didn’t have any more Spicy Chicken Vindaloo in the freezer 😂), samosas, and garlic naan. One of my favorite TJ meals.
I love their Indian food meals
Can't do the fork biting
always been a fan of yours. I watched your vids precovid time and covid time. and after 4 years you’ve appeared on my timeline again. You still look the same!! I was back at Philippines back then and now here at Canada. I hope to bump to you in the road someday trying out food on the streets. ❤️❤️❤️
I called capped on half of these items isn’t as good as what Mike recommended.
love how he pronounces pad se ew different every time
Yessss perfect timing because I now live close to a Trader Joe’s 😂
You have to try the frozen cacio e Pepe spaghetti. So good.
Yeah, tried that karage once, but won't get it again. Most was like a savory donut without much meat.

Worst thing I had at TJ
Their other pancakes is better; more vegetables, crunchier, but a touch smaller. Worth it.
The one essential condiment: their tartar sauce. No brand out there can touch it.

Welcome back to Fort Myers
My Trader Joe’s is always out of kimbap.
Never heard of Trader Joe's before but I can see there is some really good food based on the look and your reactions 👌🏻, thanks for sharing Mikey
And artichoke dip pleaseeeee
I didn’t realize Trader Joe’s had this kind of stuff 😮
I wish we had trader Joe's close to my home town. There isn't one for miles around. 😢
Mikey do you ever get heartburn?
I wanna try the Trader Joe’s seafood boil sooo baddd
at 5:26 that seafood “boil” looked really good.
What sucks is they discontinued many of the frozen foods , the best was fish korma. also, they no longer sell Milton's bread as well as the English crumpets.
You should season those corn ribs with some lime, a little mayo and Tjs lime chile powder oh and a sprinkle of Mexican cheese.
.My favorite green is gailan 😋😋😋
Life is about regrets. I have many,and you seem to have a few also.
Idea, try the hmart wherever you are cause I’m jealous at the stuff the other locations have. Mine is Upper Darby, PA and I love it but want to see others.
Would love to see your workout routine to be able to eat all that stuff hahaha
I'm probably the only person here that feels this way, but my local Trader Joe's is a mad max dystopian hellscape. There's no parking, the aisles are so narrow, you can barely pass another cart, and there's literally no fresh food -- everything is either frozen or shelf stable. There are some things I'd like to try, but I don't have the time to go to a store that offers nothing but processed food.
I wasn't a big fan of the karaage, I mixed up my own using Yuzu (which TJ sells) and Kewpie mayo, but better.
❤❤❤
The risotto is sooo gooodd
chicken poppers first time loved 2 or3xs tasted like freezer burned chicken but we loved it the first time. n I droveb2.5 hrs to go to trader jies
