As I mentioned, we made a trip to Buffalo over the weekend with the main goal of doing some American snack shopping. Between Trader Joe's and Target, I got some pretty fun goodies:
Trader Joe's Everything but the Bagel Seasoned Kettle-Cooked Potato Chips
Trader Joe's Rolled Corn Tortilla Chips Chili & Lime Flavored
Trader Joe's Everything Ciabatta Rolls and Cheddar Jalapeño Pull Apart Bread
Trader Joe's Everything but the Bagel Sesame Seasoning Blend, Everything but the Elote Seasoning Blend, and Green Goddess Seasoning Blend
Bugles Nacho Cheese Corn Snacks, Takis Intense Nacho Rolled Tortilla Chips, and Lay's Wavy Funyuns Onion Flavored Potato Chips
Market Pantry Cheddar Cheeseballs
Kraft Mac & Cheese in Three Cheese and Spirals
Bubly Sparkling Water in Strawberry Sunset and Orange Cream
Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day Hand Soap in Pear Tree and Birchwood
I also got two canisters of L'Oreal Elnett Unscented Hairspray because I can't find it anywhere here anymore, plus three sets of mint-coloured plastic plates and bowls because they were only 50 cents each (even with the currency exchange, that's only 70 cents CAD!!!). And in case you're wondering why the hell I bought Kraft Mac & Cheese of all things — because we certainly have it in Canada — according to Binging with Babish, the American version is TOTALLY DIFFERENT (and apparently WAY BETTER) than the Canadian one. So I bought two boxes to try. We also have cheeseballs here, but never in such an insane size and certainly never for so cheap ($6.79 USD!). And we have Bubly, of course, but I have never seen 8-pack sizes nor these fun summery flavours. Honestly, American junk food is just unparalleled.
Anyway, this was my first time going to Trader Joe's and I'm obsessed. I swear, if it wasn't over 30℃ and we actually brought insulated cooler bags, I would've stocked up on all the frozen goods. (Panzerotti Pizza Bites! Perfectly Pickled Pups! Maple Poffertjes! Mac and Cheese Bites! Lemon Ginger Cheesecake! Mango Cream Bars!) Why the hell aren't they open in Canada yet? (Then again, we had Target in Canada for like, nine months, and they all closed down because they were so terrible and couldn't compete with Walmart. So, I digress.)
