5. Speculoos Cookie Butter
Description: Spiced cookie spread made from Belgian biscuits, paired well with pretzels or other cookies
Why we love it: 100x better than peanut butter or nutella, if you have a sweet tooth, this one’s for you! Our favorite way to eat this spread is to pair it with Biscoff cookies.
Best: Spread
6. Mini Vegetable Samosas
Description: Savory, layered pastry filled with peas, carrots, potatoes, onions, and Indian spices
Why we love it: Though not found in the snack section, this 5 minute appetizer cooks to perfect crisp in the air fryer and is ready to eat with your favorite Indian meal or just by itself. The mini samosas are available with chicken or vegetable (our fav) and great to pair with mint chutney, sriracha, and Joe’s very own mango chutney.
Best: Underrated Snack
7. Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups
Description: Classic peanut butter cups, covered in milk chocolate coating
Why we love it: Peanut butter and chocolate — a classic combo, and even better as a candy. The chocolate coating makes the smooth peanut butter filling a great bite. They’re just as addictive as Reese’s and come in a bigger quantity, too.
Best: Candy
8. Maple Leaf Cookies
Description: Spiced cookies, with a maple-flavored creme filling in the shape of autumn leaves
Why we love it: The perfect balance between creamy and crunchy, this sweet treat is the perfect indulgence for anyone with a sweet tooth!

9. Chili & Lime Flavored Rolled Corn Tortilla Chips
Description: Rolled corn chips, topped with tangy chili and lime seasoning
Why we love it: Trader Joe’s take on Takis that are so good, you’ll want to fill your cart with them. A little more tangy and a little less spicy than the OG’s, they’re a number one pick for hot chip lovers and true Trader Joe’s fans just like us.
Best: Beloved Snack
10. Corn and Chile Tomato-less Salsa
Description: Made with a base of sweet corn and blended with diced red bell peppers, onions, jalapeño peppers, and a bit of sugar.
Why we love it: A fresh-tasting salsa to combine with salty tortilla chips. This dip adds a bit of sweetness to whatever you choose to eat it with and is something different from your basic tomato salsa. Give it an upgrade with cilantro and avocado.
Best: Dip
