If I ever get the pleasure of going back to NY and going to trader joes, what good should I have tried!? AND where should I visit next in the world????
Norway!
OMG you must try the movie theatre popcorn, the microwaveable soup dumplings, the cookie ice cream sammies, and the BROOKIES. There’s soooo much amazing stuff. I go there once a week and still haven’t tried all the fun stuff!
The Philippines 🇵🇭 will welcome 🤗 you with open arms as you know their way of cooking. Take your family with you now that it is finally open to foreigners and visit the one of many islands.
You NEED to try the Chocolate Babka!!
Netherlandsss
Everytime I see a new GRACKLE video I immediaely think, "A Grackle a day keeps the sadness away" 😂 Love you Grace!
🦩🦩🦩
I find this so funny because I literally shop at Trader Joe's every week... but I know if I'm in England I will absolutely lose my mind in an M&S or Sainsbury's or Tesco 😂 Also those plantain chips are AMAZING. If my childhood was a snack, it would be those.
As a Brit, can testify that M&S is incredible
Very surprised you didn't get any "everything but the bagel seasoning"!! My friend went to the states for thanksgiving and brought me back some & it's amazing!
That is good stuff!!! I put cream cheese on cucumber medallions and then sprinkle that on . . . BAM!!!! 🤤
Literally my first thought when she said Trader Joe's. Hopefully she has some to bring home 🤞
There’s a seller in the U.K. :) they do ranch too - Google Condimaniac
it's not trader joes brand but you can actually get it it at costco now!
Could tell Grace was VERY excited to be at Trader Joe’s…..I was getting whiplash from the “frantic” back and forth filming!😂 so happy for you Grace, that you finally made to this iconic store…..
I literally just commented the same thing ahhh! :D
Girl I moved from the US to Europe 4 years ago and I still think about those maple cookies at least once a week. I can eat a whole box in one sitting. Congratulations on having the experience of eating those in your future.
I am an American living in London and the thing I miss most, second to my family, is 100% Trader Joes. The snacky bits are fun but the frozen foods/prepared dips etc. are the best bits - shame you couldn't try! Fun fact - they are the OGs for the Everything But the Bagel Seasoning
Steel cut oats are in fact cut with steel. But it means that the bits of oats are like small, three dimensional pieces, kind of similar in texture (dried) to cornmeal, rather than rolled oats that are flat. The shape means that it retains more texture, so most people prefer them for cooked oatmeal (or porridge) but don't prefer them for overnight oats (although I don't mind). I wouldn't expect you to care much as you don't prefer oatmeal generally.
Over time adapted from the English term for the size of the oats, pin [sized] (the size of a pin head). Referring to the 3 general types (now), Steel cut or coarse/Irish oatmeal, rolled (whole oats steamed then pressed into small oval shaped discs) and modern "instant" (pre cooked, dried out, then rolled thinner than rolled oats).
It definitely gives me kid-in-a-candy-shop vibes. Here in the Uk our supermarkets don’t have as many fun of unique options!!
Your mum at the end reaching out to the CEO of trader joe's is cracking me up. I can't believe you didn't love the almond butter pretzels! They are hands down my fave at TJs. Every time I get a parcel sent to Australia of TJs snacks, it's got to have those. Also missed opportunity to get yourself a cool reusable shopping bag, they have the best ones!!!
The last time I was at my local ALDI here in Germany they had the gummy turtles. So maybe you could get them in the UK, too? And whenever there is an "American week" at ALDI they have quite a few Trader Joe's products. Since TJ's is part of the ALDI group I could imagine them doing this in other countries as well.
I don't think I've ever seen this in Aldi in the UK
@@lururu they do!I haven't seen an American week yet but I know they've done a greek week and an Italian week, so maybe there will be an American one :) pretty sure its Italian week this week (maybe)
They actually are owned by the same company now.
Following Grackle for a long time makes me as excited as she is for her trip to Trader Joe's
Sorry, Grace, but Mama Booth shushing you in Trader Joe's is my favorite part 😂 You were so excited but she was trying so hard to not be embarrassed ♥
Haha I noticed that too 🤣
Grocery shopping in other countries is my favorite! I still remember every shop I went to in Valladolid, Spain when I was there more than 10 years ago. Btw, our city got a Trader Joe’s about 8 years ago and I still get excited every time I go there. The salads and dehydrated fruits are some of my favorite items there.
I feel like there are so many copy-cat recipes for Trader Joe's snacks and baked goods online-that could be a fun video/series for you to try! 😊
omg the maple cookies are NEXT level, you're gonna love them! as an american who grew up on TJs this was so heartwarming to watch!! this was exactly how i felt the first time i visited a tesco lol. i'm so happy for you grace :') i hope you had a blast!!
I am so jealous looks amazing.. love Mama Booth being in the vlogs a little bit more than usual, hearing her crunching away in the background 😁
Been looking forward to this for ages as a fellow grocery enthusiast! Looks like Grace and mum had a fun trip.
I live in America and like save my Trader Joe’s trips as a monthly treat! I get so excited for all the seasonal treats that come in! I can only imagine how fun this was for you as a visitor 😁
Yerba Mate is a South American plant/infusion which is commonly brewed in a special cup (also called mate) and drank through a straw with a filter called a bombilla. You can also find in sachets much like you would tea, we call that mate cocido. It is very popular here in Argentina. What Trader Joe's had doesn't seem to be the tradional preparation (although it could be a versión of tereré, a cold brewed drink made with the plant) but more of an iced tea made with the yerba.
Lovely to see you so excited! They have a lot of interesting goodies.
I grinned the whole time I was watching. Loved seeing you this excited.
So excited to watch this! I've never been either but I know you've been wanting to go for literal ages! So I hope it was everything you wanted and more! 😍✨
I have a TJs about 20mins from my house and go about once a month. Great place to try unusual foods & love the frozen & bakery sections. Also go there to find friend gifts during the holidays. The pineapple salsa is good if one likes to dip their nibbles into something more sweet than hot. I always buy MILD salsa as I don't like to burn my tongue off LOL. Glad you enjoyed! 🇺🇸🇬🇧
I'm with you Grace, love Trader Joe's. It is still funky and cool. Staff seem happy. They carry items that surprise and delight. Always have flowers and plants that are pretty and affordable. The frozen foods are also really good. So glad you and your mom had fun!
I love your excitement for Trader Joe's! I didn't know anyone else was a supper market connoisseur! A good market absolutely makes my day!
Currently watching this video while I’m on my break at Trader Joe’s. It’s so funny watching you get so excited over products I put on the shelves every day hahaha I love it!! The maple leaf cookies are one of my faves ❤️❤️
Show your bosses her video. Get credit for the Collab or contact Grace to facilitate you sending her items
I saw the title of this video and SCREAMED. I'm so happy for you, Grace!
GRACKLEEEE i wish i had seen you when you were here! I am so glad you had a wonderful time and finally experienced Trader Joes!!! 💕💕💕
I’ve been dying for the day this video would come!! Love ya grace xx so glad you were able to finally come to the US and go to Trader Joe’s!
I loved this, I’m so happy that you finally got to go to trader joes. Your excitement made me smile so wide x
It's so exciting going to shops in other countries! Loved this
I've been waiting for you to go to TJs for yearrrrrrrss! So excited!
Yay you made it to trader joe’s!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 I liked before watching I’m that excited for you x
Trader Joe’s is the BEST!! Now I’ll watch the video 😂
Ok now I’m back after watching…I’m so glad you loved it like I do! There’s just something special about that store and every time I shop there it’s hard to limit myself, I just want to try everything! So go on their website, there’s a place where you can put in a request for them to open a store. I did it in my city in Florida along with many others and now we have a store around the corner! So exciting! So who knows, put in your request and maybe they will go international! Glad you’re having fun in NYC! Stay safe and happy 😘
I love how excited you are about the supermarket. I also love to visit foreign supermarkets. Always an adventure hehe :)
I love the universal experience of traveling and looking for crazy, different things in gas stations or grocery stores like this! I found one of my favorite treats in a French gas station 😂
Love you so much Grace! You make this world a better place, and fill it with so much love, happiness, kindness and are someone to look to, a shoulder to lean on and someone to always put a warming smile on our faces, no matter what! You are the best! May God bless you abundantly always! ❤️🙏🏽🤍 Xoxo love from Canada 🤗
If I visit America and go to Trader Joes I have to get the trail mix, honestly there is nothing like it in the uk, and the ‘cookies’ in the big tubs that we dunk in tea, they are delish I think they might be white chocolate and cranberry. Long time since I’ve been though
I go to Trader Joe's at least once a week so I loved seeing you their too, Grace! I love that your mom wanted flowers for the hotel room. Great video!! xo 😋❤️👏
These video's are making my heart happy!! But Grace sweetheart, lets talk.. How do you open up a bag of crisps honey? I have soo many questions 😂
I was noticing that too! lol
Been excited for this one. Cannot believe you're actually there!!!!!!
Getting whiplash in the first 3 minutes of this video from Grace excitedly spinning the camera around? Erm yes?! We love to see it?!!! Seriously tho, well jealous and I'm glad you're living your best life :D
So happy you finally got to go!!
We don't have Trader Joe's in Canada (obvi) but I feel like the southern Ontario region (or maybe in all of Ontario) has a similar store called Farm Boy. The food is fresh and they carry their own products. I'm currently eating their torilla chips which are truly the best on the market.
So exciting to see this ticked off your bucket list!
Absolutely adore your vlogs 🥺💕
This was amazing, and you’re right - there is nothing like a big Tesco trip!
How fun! Loved watching you check out Trader Joe's!
Delivering the content I've always wanted to watch!!!
I am so excited for u to finally have visited it !!!
We are lucky to have Trader Joe's here. I have my specific things I buy every time - most of it is the frozen stuff. Easy-peasy meals!!! One of my staples is the frozen cubes of garlic (but they have them at Whole Foods, too). Some of the seasonal Christmas items are to die for and you have to load up early before they disappear. They have the BEST gingerbread mix, but only at Christmas. And those PB&J snacks . . . I'm looking at three boxes in my son's snack bin, right now. Such a hit!!
The plain salted crispy mochi snacks are my absolute favourite and I clear out the shelf every single time I get to go to a trader joes.
visiting a supermarket is always my top priority when I’m abroad! It’s always sooo intriguing to see what different products other countries have. 🥰 but I do have to say, that seeing this mass of packaging kinda hurts...
How fun!! If you ever want more Trader Joe’s goodies I’m happy to mail you a box! I’m glad yo enjoyed your NYC trip!
AHH BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!! 😍
i smiled SO HARD for you!!! im so excited you finally got to trader joes!!! maybe you could try to recreate some favourite snacks when you get back home for a video?
Immaculate vibes, as always!! I sm do happy for u!!
Thank you for this video. I am going to NY in may and Trader Joe's is defo on my list. Now I am even more excited
this is so wholesome i love it
I am from Australia and I think the same about your Marks & Spencers!! Amazing. Loved the vlog thank you xx
GRACE YOU GOT TO LIVE UR DREAMS GIRLY CONGRATS 💕✨😌
I am so excited to watch this! 🎉
I can’t believe I’m so happy for someone I don’t know for going to TJs
FINALLY
YES!! I’m so excited for you, I hope I get to go one day! I love your videos
Going to supermarkets abroad is THE best thing, always. I can’t wait to travel again for that experience!
That Salsa Especial is delicious but for me, it hits the sweet spot when I buy the mild and the medium and then mix them together. Mild is too mild, medium is too hot - together, they're perfect!
Aww Love you Grace!! I was exactly the same when I first went to Trader Joes!!
SOOO glad you got to experience Trader Joes!!! Its a journey haha definitely not my go to for the daily groceries, but its fun every once and a while to treat yourself to some Traders snacks!
As an American, I’m so excited for you.
I feel the same when I’m abroad and visit other grocery stores. But let’s be real, TJ’s is a league of its own.
And don’t feel that badly about the big cereal- I’m always let down by tj cereal.
I live within 10 miles of TJ's but the parking lot is a nightmare so it's a commitment to go there and I still get excited when I manage it.
@@annefresia2102 honestly, same. I think it’s a requirement that the Trader Joe’s parking lots must be absolute garbage. I try to go at 8pm and hope for the best.
Absolutely loved this xoxo
My fav video of yours ever Grace! Live it large x
Steel cut oats are my favorite! Love you so much Grace!
I feel like we have waited for this episode for years and it lives up to the hype. Trader Joe’s is great. Some of the items end up disappointing but the large majority are fantastic
I'm so jealous that your Mum got excited in the supermarket too 😂! I LOVE visiting supermarkets, but my family all hate it. I need someone who can embrace the whole supermarket / trying new food experience with me!
This made me so excited to visit home in 2 weeks! Miss Tjs so much! Wish you could have been able to try the frozen/ cold foods! They are THE BEST.
Love this! I'm just imagining the americans that stood beside you and heard "omg that's FUN!!" with a british accent 😂
But I must say I almost felt like this when I went to England and visited a Lidl, we do not have any one those in Norway 👀
The pancake bread is my favourite thing from trader joes I tried to bake it here in England it’s just not the same!!!!!
Oh Grace 😂 it was so sweet watching you be that excited about TJ’s. To answer some of the questions - steel cut just describes how the oat is cut on the steel mill. It’s the least processed oat (quick oats are put through the mill several times while steel cut is a larger cut of oat and put through once!) Silver dollar pancakes are named after a seashell called a silver dollar ☺️ which is named that because it looks like the 50 cent coin in the US! So the pancakes are always smaller in size
Grace I totally understand you!! I love going to supermarkets around the world and seeing the fun stuff they have. Like in Thailand they have the best Lays varieties!!
The cookie butter ice cream is my absolute favorite!!
Ive got a passion for supermarkets as well. Two of my favorites are in Texas. In the Austin area the Wheatsville co-op is a real experience. Lots of vegetarian and vegan options, as well as artisanal soaps and other products, plus great produce. My favorite is Central Market. I could live there! They have things that I’ve never heard of so I always learn something. Their fresh juices are incredible, the variety of fruits and veg is amazing, their bakery, their ready-made foods! Love them! Outside of Texas, I love Publix, but I have found Trader Joe’s to be meh. Could be the TJ location I went to was very tiny and very crowded, so I will give a different location a try. BTW, your hair in the opening looked seriously gorgeous! So fun to see another grocery store geek!
i love these nyc vlogs!!
I head to NYC next week and my gosh! Trader Joe's is getting a visit!!! My mouth is WATERING thinking of those tangy turtles! I need to hunt down the array of hummus too. I can feel a Netflix & Trader Joe Night coming on! 😆 x
My absolute favourite thing to do in any country I visit is to spend as much time as i want exploring groceries stores! I feel you!
The pineapple salsa is my absolute favorite!!!
I tried that tingle shampoo when I was in New York and loved the minty sensation and fragrance!
Great video Grace! There's a Trader Joe's about 2 blocks from me in LA, I go all the time! The Pancake Bread is good, I tried that a few weeks ago and I also found some peanut butter and chocolate covered marshmallows which were really good. I also love all of their prepared salads (the tuna, egg and chicken salads are so yum). Last thing is their elote dipper chips, they are corn chips with elote mexican street corn seasoning 😋😋😋😋 I'm so glad you got to go and I can't wait to visit the UK and try all of your grocery shops! lots of love always! 🤗✌️❤️
Yes! I feel the same way about Trader Joe’s and I’m American lol. But I had a bit of a chuckle over the oats comments. Similar comments from myself in England. 💕💕💕
I love to have flowers in a hotel room. I love watching this because it's exactly how I am when I hit the markets in the UK.
So happy to be here so early
The almond danish is so good!!!, highly recommend!!!
Omg your hair is so pretty🥺❤️
The pineapple and peach salsas are some of my favorites! The sesame covered almonds are also top tier. Those spicy mochi nuggets have such a weird aftertaste imo. Glad you had fun!
Peach salsa, never heard of that in my life! Must try 😋
Oh I just know this is going to be a good vlog 😌
I planned my lunch break around this vlog. One o’clock can’t get here soon enough.
OMG THATS LITERALLY THE TRADER JOES I SHOP AT LOL ! HOW FUNNN
Just what I need after a hard days work. Ty Grace
This was really interesting fellow foodie. I can’t wait to see other videos whilst you are in New York!
Love your enthusiasm ❣️❣️❣️
