- Hey FreeGang! Thanks for tuning into another USA grocery shopping video!
Today we visit Trader Joes for the first time! As a British family that is used to UK shopping, this was quite the experience as we see if we can get any good US deals and try to navigate Trader Joes with no budget and find some good vegan food!
We do some US and UK food grocery price comparisons, check out the vegan food options in Trader Joes, and come back with a nice US food grocery shopping haul!
We make these videos to bring smiles and entertain you, these videos are also good for anyone looking for money saving tips, vegan shopping at Walmart shopping on a budget, anyone conscious of the cost of living or their financial situation, or anyone just trying to save money! So hopefully it can help you with personal finance. We hope you enjoy this vegan US Trader Joes grocery haul.

We are passionate about helping people with budgeting, shopping on a budget, money saving and general finance. Whether you are here for a travel vlog, shopping vlog or just one of our everyday family vlogs we appreciate you being here!!
Trader Joes wasn't founded by one of the Aldi brothers... The two Aldi brother split up in 1960 on a dispute on selling Cigarettes... This split created Aldi Sud (That Aldi US/UK is owned by) and Aldi Nord(That Trader Joes is owned by). Trader Joes was founded by Joe Coulombe in 1958 and Aldi Nord brought Trader Joes in 1979.
Thanks so much for the info! 👌
Trader Joe's is the best. Founded in California (where so many cool, trend setting things have started), it always ranks at the top of best grocery in the US! Glad you enjoyed it so. Great vlog.
News flash, Trader Joe’s is actually One of Aldi’s store, which originates in Germany.
@@marydavis5234, Trader Joe's first store was in Pasadena, California and I remember going there when I was a kid. Aldi bought them years later and expanded the store into other states, but the products they sell haven't changed much and are about the same as they were originally.
@@marydavis5234 News Flash-From Wikipedia-The first Trader Joe's store was opened in 1967 by founder Joe Coulombe in Pasadena, California.[4] The chain was sold to Aldi founder Theo Albrecht[5] in 1979, who owned it until his death in 2010, when ownership passed to his heirs Check your facts. 🙂
There is actually two shops called Aldi. Aldi Sud and Aldi Nord. The Aldi we have in the UK is Aldi Sud which operates under the name Aldi in the US. We don't have Aldi Nord in the UK. Some countries have both like Spain and Germany so if you see two Aldi stores with different logos that why
That ‘life is worth living’ part really hits me as someone with an incurable progressive condition. 🥺💗
I'm sorry
Sending positive vibes 🙏
Live each moment 💛
I think once three people in your family have smelled the same grapefruit, you're obligated to buy it 😝
Very true 😀👌
Bob with the ice cream “hide them somewhere!!!!” 🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Been there done that 😁
Now we have seen you buy the food lets see you cook it. Thanks for the video.
I find absolutely amazing I'm 54 years old lived in America all my life I've never been in traders Joe's I never seen the inside I thought trader Joe's was a high end clothing store up until this video I had no idea its a supermarket. What's really crazy is a British family has been inside and shopped at this store. Me up until now I really thought it was a clothing store like a high end old navy. Ugh. Be safe guys. Take Care
We're glad you got to see inside via our video! 😃
Hi family freedom hope you are well and having a good day! Another great video! Hope your having a good time in America!
Take care
Just keep rising 💚🌻🌿
Thanks so much Lana! We always enjoy seeing your comments 😊
We hope you have a great day, just keep rising 💚🌻🌿
I would love to see another blind food challenge please
Such a lovely store! I would spend a small fortune in there if I lived there! Thanks for once again taking us along, loved it! 👍👍👍👍💗💗💗
You take the Soyrizo (vegetable chorizo) and heat it in a frying pan, then add a few eggs and mix and scramble with the soyrizo, microwave a flour tortilla with cheese in it, and then roll a great breakfast burrito with it. So good. 👍
"Even that cardboard looks decent"😂😂 loving the Florida vlogs😁
I've loved all the American videos
That's so great to hear 💙🤗
Also hope of you don't mind me asking but when is the q&a coming out? 💚
Hey Chloe, we haven't filmed the Q&A yet but will do soon and it should be out after our short USA vs UK stores series 👍
Always makes me happy when you guys post on here hope you guys are doing great it's Res hot here today
😊😊
Hi Family Freedom ❤🇺🇸
HI William, we hope you're doing well 🤗
Trader Joe's is a great store. I love shopping and in my store at times they have free samples. Including wine..
Nice 😋👌
So many Sugar loaded treats! Hold me back!! Jo Jo is happy, got his treat of Mandarines! 👍👍👍👍👍😃
Love these shopping videos your doing can you do a video of making a meal put of what you buy there great videos to love your family how long you go to America for ? Xx love ❤️ 🇬🇧 xx
Thank you Jackie. We're glad to hear that you've enjoyed these videos.
We're back in the UK now so unfortunately on this occasion we can't do any meal making videos, but maybe next time we visit the USA we can!! 👍🇺🇸
#livebutnotlive from vacation at Neuharlingersiel at the German North See ! Watching you guys shortly before going out to rent some bikes for today and tomorrow!
Enjoy!! 😊👍
Great experience all the various shops ,great to view from stores 😊
Checked your channel after a long time. Last time i visited was when you guys had Paul "Hench herbivore". Really enjoying the haul and vids. Great going guys.
Welcome back and thank you 🤗💚
Trader Joe's is my favorite food store! Unique products at fair prices, great people working there, great vibe!
It's definitely one of our favourite stores now Kathy! 👍
Trader Joe's is my favourite shop on earth! ❤ try going near christmas mmm🤤
Great idea!! 🎁
Wish they had a trader joes in the uk. All that organic and vegan stuff in a supermarket would be great. Uk supermarkets aren’t as good on variety 😊
Hey Catherine, yes, you're right, it would be great if they had a store in the UK! 👍
Loving your vlogs. Found them by pure chance. Imagine how thrilled I was to find that you're fellow vegans!
We're glad that you found us Gwen!!! 😃
Another awesome video from Katie, Bob and the dancing JoJo. Yummy 😋 healthy vegan food and it has been lovely to see Family Freedom's travel adventures in the United States. Love 🥰 the video and live not live from Scotland and sending love ❤ from Scotland to all the family.
Thanks so much for your comment and for following our adventures in the USA, we really appreciate it! 😃
I always enjoy your vlogs! The shopping in America is fabulous! Trader Joes is my “go to” for many items that I don’t quite need a large amount of for my family. The bags you purchased will last forever!😀
I hope you are enjoying being in Florida- (I live in New Jersey). I love that all these years that my daughter & I have been watching your vlogs, you have remained consistent and authentic in every way! Thank you for that❣️❣️
Thank you so very much for your kind words Mary Lou! We visited New Jersey years ago when JoJo was only 5 years old! It was such a beautiful state and we’d love to go back one day 🇺🇸🙏
Indeed it is a lovely store, never been in one though. So many vegan selections and easy to read price signs. And cute little icecream cone thingys..yum
If you go back...dark chocolate peanut butter cups up above the frozen section..you won't regret it.
We love them so much!!! 😋
The vegan chorizo is really yummy in a tofu scramble with potatoes or the hash browns
Sounds yummy! 😋 Thanks for the tip! 👍
I'm so happy you were able to go to Trader Joe's. It's one of my favorites. Great for a quick meals on the go too. Their meatless orange chicken in the frozen section is so good just wish it was a bigger bag. Great over rice. They have so many great items and they always have new seasonal items coming in. I'm real happy you got their tote bags and a cooler, their great to have. Would love to know which items you liked when you have a chance to try them. 🤗 Jojo your dancing always makes me smile ☺️
Hey Karen, thank you for your comment 😊
Yes, we really loved Trader Joe's and we're glad that we followed yours and other's recommendation to go there. We really enjoyed the bread, the tzatziki, the mini ice creams - oh so much!!!! 😂😋
@@FamilyFreedom
Oh that is awesome! I'm so happy you enjoyed those items. Thank you for letting me know 🤗
Trader joe's have good deals. And healthy. You got all that plus 2 bags and a cooler bg under 90 dollars. Thats a good deal.
Thanks for the feedback Rachel, that's good to know! 👍
I guess be a American citizen all my life I take it all for Granted.
3:08 traders joes was started by an American, it was bought by Albrechts
I would love to go to Trader Joes I really wish we had them over here 😭❤️
I know 😭 Trader Joes had so many gluten free products, way more than we’ve seen in other stores 💚
Thanks for sharing your experience at Trader’s Joe’s I don’t have it in my state but have family in there state and love the store take care 💚☝🏽
Trader Joe’s at Christmas has the most amazing unique and fabulous foods . Jingle Jangle and other yummy things. I always fill my cart. Personal favorite year round is in the frozen section, black bean taquitos.
Every time I go shopping with my fiancé I always say I can’t leave it there for that he asked me where I got that from I said Katie from family freedom 😂
😂😂😂😂
YES Trader Joe's. Love ❤❤❤😂🎉 this place. It's a great,great store.
Was hoping you would get Trader Joe's brand of Hummus; it is so good.
What a lovely shop, so many different varieties of food, good to see gluten free. Always enjoy your vlogs xx
Thanks so much for watching them Catherine! 😊
They will open and let you try anything you want. Next time do store taste test. :)
Hey there family freedom I'm coming to you live but not live from Canterbury Kent really enjoyed your video, such a really good store, hope you are all really enjoying your holiday in the USA, take care guys
Thanks so much Damon!
The vegan Caramelized Onion Dip is my favorite.
Cook up some of the chorizo, then add in eggs and make a burrito out of it. You can add cooked sausage, bacon, cheese, taco sauce....etc. 😀 The chorizo is cooked like minced hamburger, just a few minutes and it is done.
Enjoying the American shopping xxx
Brilliant place.👍
It really is Diane! 👌
I can't wait also I've heard that you might of gone back to the uk?💚
You might have heard correct Chloe 😊
It is shocking how much bread costs in the USA 😮
Yay!! I’m happy you got to go to Trader Joe’s.
So are we!!
I’ve been following your channel for a while. I’m fascinated with your vegan diet. I love seeing what you buy. That’s a fantastic looking shop. It’s interesting seeing an American store. I’m from Wales 🏴 by the way. I love it when your son wears his 🏴 Wales t-shirt. 😊❤ X
Hey Caroline, thanks for watching and commenting. We hope you're enjoying the videos 😊
We love Wales! We traveled the country a bit in our van last year, and that's when JoJo bought the t-shirt, he loves it! 🏴💚
Trader Joe's is the best!
We totally agree 🤗
Thanks to you I'll have to check this out. I have heard about this chain forever but I was thinking the nearest one was like 2 hours away but apparently we've had one in our town since 2011. They decorate them based on the state they are in. If you came up here where I live you'd get totally different bags.
Thanks for sharing Brad. It's interesting that they decorate according to the state, it would be nice to visit some of the stores in other states! 👍🇺🇸
I live in Louisville, KY, home of the Kentucky Derby, and the Louisville Slugger baseball bat. Apparently our Trader Joe's has murals of famous places and attractions in and around town. The bags have things like images representing bluegrass music and our state bird, etc.
Jojo you have your own brand 😂
Great video guys, I've always wanted to go to trader Joe's
Thank you 🤗 Yes, Trader Joe's is fantastic, you will love it 💚
Ezekial 4.9 bread is based on a bible verse. I'm not sure if you had made the connection. Also,Aldi sell fresh pizza dough in UK
Great video fam splendid on the shop we had Grey's burgers on Friday and it was well good like Bob like to say I really enjoyed them with sweet pot fried on bread with mayo lettuce n tomatoes will buy again for sure even made meatless mac na cheese n enjoyed it very much
I can’t believe you didn’t find trader joes sooner, I would be there every day if I lived in the US
We wish we had found it sooner too Joanne! We loved it there 👌
❤❤❤
How is JoJo not turning into an orange? lol Loving the videos
😂😂😂
Soy chorizo!! I’m American Mexican and love my beef/pork. But that chorizo is shockingly good!🙌🏼
Chorizo: Chore-REEZ-o :)
Trader Joe's "Triple Ginger Snaps" are some of the best cookies I've ever had. Check them out.
Thanks for the suggestion! 😃
U should try Trader Joe’s body butter it’s so thick and creamy smells amazing and is only 5.99
I do love the feel of Trader Joe’s and your right, it deffo has a “holiday vibe”
It reminds me of a mix between Aldi, Holland & Barrett and Waitrose! And the prices aren’t so bad.
JoJo and Katie vs Bob..and pasta haha.
#freegang #livebutnotliv #justkeeprising 💚
Trader Joe’s is actually Aldo nord in the US.
Love your videos I shop traders Joe's
How long you staying in American for I love your videos so much you guys are so amazing xx
You will see us back in the UK very soon 💙🤗💚
I usually only go there during the holidays for their unique treats since it's so far away.And i think expensive.
I'm still waiting for taste test and cooking videos based on your American grocery shopping trips.
I never went to Trader's Joe's and we have it in Boca Raton, Florida
Hope you got what you wanted.
Turn me loose in my local Trader Joe's, and I can eat healthy, delicious foods for a month! 😁❤️💚
You all seem to be having a great time. It feels like you have been in USA for weeks, how long did you book for? sorry just being nosy. x
Their wines are very reasonably priced.
TRADER JOES WASNT STARTED BY ONE OF ALID BROTHERS, TRADER JOES STARTED IN CLAFORINEY ONE OF ALDI BROTHER BOUGHT IT. FROM JOES
Ah right, thanks for confirming! 👍
No fresh veggies except salad mix!? I would eat tofu with sauteed vegetables.
We've spent 4 months in USA but never saw a Trader Joe's store.
Another amazing video … how long are you in America for ?
Hey Hayley, this was the last of our videos in the USA, and we're now back home in the UK 😊
I wish you guys did a meet and greet
We may do one day! 😊
If you guys go to Texas try HEB
Thanks for letting us know John! 👍
America like Japan etc have a lot of weird exciting products 😄 would be nice if you did a video on all the weird food products you find canned etc (pickle pops to keep cool on a hot summer's day 😢).
Do you find it weird when your in the UK and people are asking you when you're going away? But then when you're away they keep on asking you when are you going back home???
How do you respond or think why people are asking such questions. Hope my question makes sense 😊 x
Great video I really enjoyed it thanks for sharing your videos ❤️🇺🇸
You're very welcome as always William ❤️🇺🇸
First!
💜❤️☀️
Big hugs Letitia 🤗
Have you been to Whole Foods Market yet?
Hey Colette, yes we have been there, and we have a video coming up soon where we compare Whole Foods UK with Whole Foods USA 🇺🇸 🇬🇧👍
I go to that specific Trader Joe’s
And try going to Publix, too. It’s a popular supermarket
At Publix, either go near the lottery section or deli area to get these chips that I really like called The Good Crisp Company. Hopefully you try it?
Thanks for the tips!
You’re welcome
Trader Joe’s is a subsidiary of Aldi.
Hiiiiiiiii
Hi Sophie 🤗
How long are you in the US for? I'd love to see what else you're getting up to while you're there as well.
Hey, this was our last video from our US trip and we're now back in London. You can catch up on our US videos and see some of the things we did via this playlist th-cam.com/video/PMySxb-8jYQ/w-d-xo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
