Why'd you say it like that?
OKAY GUYS!
OKAY!
OKAY GUYS!
OKAY!
GOING!
What's going on everybody?
We are about to try
the best and top rated items
from Trader Joe's.
Trader Joe's is different.
Yeah.
It's the original
like farmers market, supermarket.
I always thought they got the most unique
items.
They got funky items.
I'm looking at it, I was like
what?
They got funky items,
but they're not bougie,
like Whole Foods.
So the things that we have on the table
that we're eating today
are all the highest rated
Trader Joe's food.
And the customers have decided
it's kind of like Amazon reviews.
You know how you always go
for the top rated item
with the most reviews off Amazon?
This is pretty much this,
except for Trader Joe's.
Trader Joe's top rated foods.
Let's go.
Yo, everybody,
thank you so much for clicking on that video
and big shout out to the sponsor
of this video, Lull,
for sending us new mattresses
in a box.
We got the pillows.
We're going to pull it out right here.
Oh, thank you, Lull,
for sponsoring this post.
OK, guys, first,
we got to start with the hot food.
We're going to start with the burritos.
Frozen burritos, bro.
We have to provide some context
for the people.
Carnitas burrito from Trader Joe's.
Good, but it's not frozen
when the tortilla wrap is not hard.
Yeah, yeah.
And no freezer burn on it.
Oh, man, that guac is interesting.
Giving it a three point five out of five.
I gave it a three out of five to start.
You know, I gave it a three out of five.
I mean, it was cool, but it wasn't.
It wasn't.
I could see it getting up better from here.
Next piece.
Whoa.
This is a super burrito.
This is a vegetarian burrito.
No meat.
There's only carrots, quinoa,
some greens.
No, it's going to be good.
I already know it's going to be good.
I'm ready.
Be honest.
Keep it real, man.
Keep it real with the audience.
I'm excited to taste it.
Hey, you know,
I've never had a vegetarian burrito before.
Super burrito.
Interesting.
No, not bad.
You know, I kind of like it.
For a quinoa burrito.
I'm a fan.
I give it a three point five.
Yo, Nell, are you eating the whole thing?
Wow.
Nell has eaten almost 90% of that burrito piece.
I give it a three point five out of five.
Pretty good.
I'm going to say it's better than the carnitas.
I give it a three point five out of five too.
OK.
Next up, we have a pollo asada burrito.
We have another vegetarian burrito from Trader Joe's.
I keep getting the beanie bite.
Not as much flavor as the other ones.
OK.
Very mushy.
Yeah.
I would actually give it a three out of five.
I give that a three.
I would give this burrito two point five out of five.
It has a lack of flavor compared to the other two that we just ate.
I mean, the chorizo does add a little bit of, you know,
delicacy to it.
OK.
But not significantly better.
All right, guys.
Here we have the chicken sausage breakfast burrito.
David, you love breakfast burritos.
It's funny because you love breakfast food,
but you're not a morning person.
Ah!
Me, I just tend to start my mornings at 10 a.m.
You can't go wrong with breakfast burritos for this potato.
It's pretty good.
It's overall, it's pretty good.
Dude, can you imagine with hot sauce how good that would be?
A little tad bland.
I give it a three five.
Same three five.
I give it a three five.
You know what I would give?
I give the tortilla a five out of five.
For every single burrito I ate, I just enjoy eating the freaking tortilla.
About to try the number one rated burrito.
The most simplest one, too.
Simplest one.
It is the bean and jack cheese burrito.
Guys, the number one ranked burrito at Trader Joe's.
At Trader Joe's.
Let's do it.
This one is very regular.
I don't see anything special with this one, to be honest.
Like, it's cool.
I can't even take a second bite, man.
It's like that, huh?
It's like that, man.
Even the jack cheese just didn't have the sharpness.
Yo, honestly, that's the bottom two for me.
Two point five out of five.
Two out of five for me.
Straight disappointment, man.
I'm about to go two point five out of five.
I'm just disappointed, man.
The second highest rated to go item are the rainbow wrap.
Here, now, I will give you the middle piece
because I've been eating the middle pieces of the burrito.
It's all good. I want the end.
Nani?
Weirdo.
Stay consistent.
Weirdo.
Oh, you got chickpeas in there.
You've got the sweet potato.
You've got some very vibrant greens.
You got some beets.
Beets, spinach, curried hummus, sweet potato.
That's kinda hard to eat, too.
The eatability.
Give it two point five.
I give it a three out of five
because it tastes really healthy,
but there's nothing special about it.
To me, I think this product comes from a different world.
I give it a three out of five, though.
Yeah, I show it respect.
Oh, damn. Stopped me in the eye.
This is a triple ginger brew.
Ginger ale with a kick.
It kicked me in the eye.
This is good.
The ginger is strong.
It's good. It's good.
I feel the kick.
It actually reminds me of like a little bit like a Chinese drink.
Yeah.
What do you guys think about like really ultra traditional,
quasi medicinal flavors in bobas?
I like it.
I want to, I would love for the tradition to come back to boba.
And that's why I don't drink that much milk tea.
But I got to give it a three point five out of five.
I'm going to give it a four out of five.
Say what it is.
I'm going to give it a three out of five.
I'm going to give it three out of five.
It was not spectacular.
It's not spectacular.
This is the top rated appetizer from Trader Joe's.
This is the spinach artichoke.
Reduce guilt.
I like how that's a really funny term.
Reduce guilt.
Basically, this is the diet.
Reduce that.
This is four out of five.
You really feel that spinach artichoke, creamy, cheesy flavor,
but that's what allows it to be, you know, reduced calories.
That's what allows for the diet.
You know, that's that's what allows for like
there to be so few calories.
It's such a decadent dish.
Four out of five.
It's good.
Man, I got to stop myself.
No, it's good, man.
It's guilt free, David.
Go at it.
I don't know.
Guys, we are moving on to the top rated hot foods from Trader Joe's.
This is the chicken tikka masala.
I'm going to sauce up my corner.
Honestly, you can kind of tell the chicken was frozen.
It's the curry.
Yeah.
There's so much butter in it.
And the way that it melts, it almost tastes like a restaurant.
Four out of five.
I was going to say three out of five.
It's a pretty good dinner.
And I thought it didn't have enough kick to it.
Tikka masala, I believe, has more spice than like butter chicken.
Are you sure you don't have enough spice?
You want to retract your thoughts?
I give it a four.
I think it's fairly affordable as a good portion.
Not too much.
You know, not too little.
I like the spice in the curry.
But my favorite part, I think I like the rice.
It kind of feels like the taste, the texture of it, kind of like a noodle.
Yeah.
I like that.
Yo, very long.
If you guys know about Indian rice, basmati rice, very, very long.
Look how long that rice is.
Moving on to the Italian version of mochi, gnocchi.
Gnocchi.
Like gnocchi.
So normally gnocchi is made out of potato and flour.
This is cauliflower and flour.
By itself, I give it a two out of five.
OK, by itself.
But I do think that one, you're not really supposed to microwave it.
Two, you're probably supposed to eat it with some sauce.
But by itself, I got to give it a two five.
A two point five.
But the potential is there for it to be a four.
This is the Mandarin orange chicken.
Not Trader Joe's, it's Trader Ming's because it's Chinese food.
What happened to Trader Chow's, man?
Trader Chow's.
Trader Ming's Mandarin orange chicken.
明显胜的成绩.
The batter's not too thick.
You can really get the taste of chicken.
The batter's not too thick.
And the flavor of the sauce is very good.
This is the highest rated item in the entire Trader Joe's grocery store.
Four point five out of five, D.
Whoa.
I stand by it.
I give it a four out of five.
Five out of five.
Five.
There's five, right?
And then there's five.
That's it.
It's over.
Video over.
Oh, boom, boom.
Thank goodness I was not sitting right here, or I would have got splashed a lot.
Oh, shit.
What happened?
This is wild.
This is the highest rated drink.
The ginger brew was the second highest rated.
This is the highest rated drink of the entire Trader Joe's.
So you're telling me that the number one drink in the store is water.
Sparkling natural mineral water.
Boom.
Well, obviously, the ginger brew had more flavor.
I mean, you can get sparkling mineral.
I'll tell you this.
The carbonation is strong.
Look how many bubbles there are.
David.
All right, moving on to the best baked item here at Trader Joe's.
We got the Danish Kringle.
It's good, though.
It's really good.
It's really sweet, though.
Why does this look like the character that leads most of the games
that you can buy on mobile?
And he always has his helmet covering his eyes.
Like, how can he even see?
Kringle.
Four out of five.
Whoa, a four out of five.
Yeah, here's why.
Here's why.
It's tasty for a bite.
And also, it is in the shape of a zero.
Here's why I'll give it a 3.5.
Normally, I would give it a three.
But because it put me in a European state of mind.
Guys, we got bread.
The second highest rated bakery item from Trader Joe's
is the sliced French brioche.
Let's get this bread, man.
Come on, y'all, man.
No wonder y'all ain't getting this bread.
Y'all ain't even done a turn.
That's clowning, bro.
Yo, we have unexpected cheddar and then French brie.
Unexpected cheddar.
You know why it's unexpected?
Yeah, what's unexpected?
Because it's not orange.
It's white.
I give the sharp cheddar a four.
And I give the brie a four.
I give the sharp cheddar a three
because it could go both ways for me.
I don't know.
I just really can't.
The brie, I actually enjoyed it.
I'll give it, you know, slightly one notch higher.
3.5 out of five.
I'm giving them both 3.5 out of five.
One of the hardest things to do
is spread a very thick spread onto soft bread.
I'll give this a 3.5 out of five.
So it's a 3.5 for me.
I was ready to give it a five out of five.
Nelly, Nelly, Nelly, Nelly, Nelly, Nelly.
You're getting a little emotional here.
No, cookie butter is one of my favorite things, man.
It's good.
You can put it with anything.
You are eating.
Nell is continuing to eat it.
This is the best seasoning here at Trader Joe's.
Most famous.
This is the everything but the bagel sesame seasoning.
Sprinkle it on here and use it as a dip.
That's crazy, bro.
Yo, this looks like bird feed.
Oh my, I can't eat that anymore, man.
I like everything bagels with cream cheese.
This kind of gives me the essence
of the everything bagel with cream cheese,
minus the guilt.
It tastes good, but it's like OD on the salt.
I give it a 3.5 out of five.
Give it a three.
I give it a three.
But if you put too much, it would be like a two.
Hit me.
Open wide.
Tell me that ain't salty.
Calyx.
Are you a bird?
Give me some hits.
Give me some views on this video.
Look at this.
We have one of the top rated produce items
at Trader Joe's, which is the sliced apples.
Oh, it's good apples.
Fire.
Fire apples.
Might have to give it like a one out of five, though.
You do that in front of me.
4.5 out of five for the apple slices.
Just short of perfect.
These are not bananas.
Bananas.
These are plantains.
Plantainers.
We are trying the Trader Joe's plantains.
Slight butter, slight salt, not too dry,
but thicker than a regular potato chip.
I give it a 3.5 out of five.
I ate so many, I have to give it a four.
Four out of five.
Love produce.
This is the number one rated snack at Trader Joe's, guys.
Peanut butter filled pretzels.
No preservatives, no artificial colors or flavors.
All right, twist them.
I give it a 2.5 out of five.
Yo, you know what?
Wow.
Two out of five.
Whoa.
Yeah.
Wow.
I'm done.
Wow.
I just gave it three out of five.
You guys, last but not least,
this is the peanut butter cup,
dark chocolate peanut butter cup.
3.5 out of five.
I'll give it a three.
I think this was a little healthier.
Three five, three five.
These are Trader Joe's response to Swedish fish.
They are the Scandinavian swimmers.
And they have this guy in this crazy swimsuit
who looks like a straight, like, terrorist.
You are assembling your army of Aquaman right here.
I give it three out of five.
Okay, so I've tasted all the flavors
for every fish-like creature.
The yellow one is by far the worst one.
I give it a three five.
I give it a three out of five.
Wow.
Show the people, man.
Wow.
Show the people, man.
This is Nelson's third grade artwork.
Nelson, what would you like to say?
You know, these are my little friends.
You know, I got the lobsters,
and then I got the orange fish.
I didn't really like the yellow guy,
so, you know, I cut him in half.
Look.
What?
That's how sticky they are, man.
That's how sticky they are.
I'm going with this.
The curry, the artichoke dip.
Danish Kringles took me to Europe.
Obviously, I thought the orange chicken
did a pretty good job.
I enjoyed that quinoa burrito.
Apple slices.
All right, first off, I'm riding with the cookie butter.
I guess I'm going to have to go with all the...
Carbs.
With the bread and the tortilla of the burritos.
Wow.
I mean, I gave the tortilla a five out of five, man.
I mean, just, Nelson, you like your cars
and you like your carbs.
That's why.
First of all, after looking into the backstory
behind Trader Joe's and how it's owned by a German company,
they have a lot of authentic European.
Everything is so European.
Like, you know what I mean?
They try to have high quality, affordable versions
of things that, you know, people wouldn't know too much
about the American market, whether that's brie
or certain types of cheeses that are more authentic.
You know, I didn't see, like, American sliced cheese.
I think it's really interesting how Trader Joe's,
one, is considered a good company to work for,
and two, how they have these different lines
named after the country that the food is inspired by.
Like Trader Ming's?
Trader Ming's.
Now, you can be, like, kind of offended by that
and be like, yo, why do you say Ming?
Because, like, why has it got to be Ming, you know?
Whatever, but-
I'm trying to think of Ming Tsai.
Yeah, I mean, there was a person named Ming.
So they took some of the most famous Chinese names
and were just like, Ming, it's safe.
Yeah, they were like, it's safe.
I think the ranking of some of the foods are a little skewed.
You mean by the Trader Joe's?
Yeah, by the Trader Joe's, like, you know,
which gives me a sense where a lot of things were, like,
overrated in a sense, where I feel like it doesn't cater
to all types of people in terms of, like,
you know, taste and quality.
But I do appreciate how Trader Joe's
is so authentic and to themselves
and also provides you with a simplistic way of shopping
where, okay, we'll give you the top of the line items
where you don't have to, like, go out searching
on which one you want to pick out
because, you know, we already picked it out.
All right, everybody, thank you so much
for watching that video from Trader Joe's.
We just tried all the top items
voted on by their customers.
Guys, let us know in the comments below
what other items or grocery stores we should go check out
because this is very, very interesting.
The supermarket thing is a lot more deeper
than you think, man.
Trust me.
All right, everybody, Nelson Chan from Hooping Life.
David, Andrew, check us out at our links down below.
Until next time, we out.
Peace.
