6 Trader Joe's Products You NEED To Try At Least Once, According To An Employee

This is no way sponsored at all but I do work for the company and I know my way around their products. Here are some of my favorite and most popular items.

TJ's Garlic Spread Dip

If you like garlic, then you should already be all over this product. It's a white spreadable dip that tastes like the perfect proportion of garlic in your mouth.

It is a versatile product, being that you can just use it as a dip, or other things like the sauce on a pizza or a marinade for chicken or vegetables. Or just simply eat it by the spoonful.

TJ's Chile Lime Seasoning

We all know the most popular seasoning at Trader Joe's is the Everything But The Bagel Seasoning, but step aside for the all-rounded seasoning that can go on just about anything and everything you want.

My personal favorite thing to do is adding it on top of watermelon for a sweet and fiery taste.

This is one of my favorite products to eat on my breaks, even if it isn't breakfast time.

This wrap is filled with scrambled eggs, sausage, potatoes and a cheese sauce that pairs it all together. It's really easy to heat up, and super easy to eat since it tastes so good! It's a great go-to breakfast, or in my case, an anytime snack.

TJ's Sweet Potato Gnocchi

This frozen dish is an easy dinner for any day of the week. It's so simple to make and tastes like something I've never had before.

Gnocchi are usually made with russet potatoes, but the sweet potato adds a unique taste, and of course, anything covered in butter and herbs can't be bad!

TJ's Honey Sesame Almonds and Cashews

If you're not a huge nut person, these will help you get into the nut game.

They're coated with a honey drizzle and topped with sesame seeds; the perfect combination of sweet and salty in each bite. This nut variety comes in both almonds and cashews, so you can get either or both!

TJ's Tea Tree Oil Face Wash

Trader Joe's isn't just a place to get good groceries, their face and body products are killer, too.

This face wash is one of my favorites because it feels like it really cleans.

Keep in mind though that since tea tree oil can be really strong, this face wash is also strong, so it's important to moisturize properly after washing with it.

On a side note, their Enrich Moisturizer with SPF 15 is my go-to for everyday use.

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
