All right disclaimer today’s Costco grocery haul happened on an empty stomach it’s important that we disclose that because there’s a lot of things we bought that we wouldn’t normally buy because we were hungry all right no judgment no judgement all right all right we uh walked in with full wallets and left.
$365 pourer and we’re going to count down from 5 all the way until 1 what our top finds were for this haul we do it in every Hall but today’s a little bit unique because we’re also going to taste test each item it’ll be our first I’m trying out these five new items and we’re going to share them with you guys so we didn’t get a ton of produce today.
As we actually happened to have a lot already so we just kind of restocked on some of our Essentials like spinach which we make salads and smoothies with we got some mushrooms some sweet potatoes we got a bag of celery mostly we use that for smoothies and we got a big bag of garlic it’s kind of a sin to be out of garlic in case you didn’t know.

Finds from Costco what what do we have Janelle crackers yeah what kind of crackers they’re very unique looking they’re avocado toast crackers at first when I read it and saw it in the store I was what they’re selling a avocado toast in a box it’s a bit confusing the way they Market it but yeah they they look they.

So many nutrients and minerals in it that if you’re trying to add more nutrition into your diet and maybe replace cane sugar da syrup is a great place to start also you could use maple syrup which we also buy b b did I just say B yeah that’s okay we B them okay next up we have item number four in our countdown number five was the crackers.

Reminds me of what this stuff tastes like ranch pizza dip you know when you get dipping sauces for your pizza this tast is like tast is this tastes like the ranch dipping sauce you get from like Domino’s that’s an incredible Duo together I’m just cleaning up the cheese that looks very.
Inappropriate it’s unable love I love it it’s uh it’s amazing buy those crackers buy that cheese they go so well together wouldn’t buy the crackers on their own but the crackers go so well and they have the right amount of salt they’re not too salty they’re salty just enough to kind of bring out all the flavors of the cheese that a dynamic duo totally I.
Didn’t expect that I’m blown away I’m so happy about this purchase this this is amazing so good let’s go rapid fire mode through a few things tell us Janelle what’s next on our grocery haul here we got ourselves a few Pantry Staples that we always get from Costco I really flip na my arm into that one we got some hemp Parts because they’re a great source of.

Things yes yes I said that properly yes you did all right Grand reveal ooh they’re like little nutty almost gran Ola like looking clusters sniff test oh caramel yeah that’s right they are a caramel flavor um as they say on the box I feel like we could share a cluster oh I’ll take the whole thing no.
He wants his own we don’t share apparently in this house oh I got a little one I got jipped M they’re 5 g of protein per serving 2 g of sugar and 7 G of fiber so they’re like they’re not bad by any means they’re definitely calorie dense cuz it’s pretty much just all nuts and seeds but damn they make for a really.
Satisfying crunchy sweet salty snack we still got two more to go but before we get to those next up we have soy milk we don’t often buy soy milk from Costco actually but we didn’t get a chance to go to our regular Supermarket so we got the Kirkland variety speaking of milk we also got a couple cases of their canned organic coconut milk from Chaz Organics.
They’re the best all right we’re on to number two in our top five list which is this product from one degre yes it’s a granola we love granola and we love one degree Organics we buy their oats all the time lots of their oats gluten-free and uh these are glutenfree sprouted granolas opening don’t want to Elbow you in the face.
We do our own stunts for me this is and my voice just cracked cuz I got so excited about this this is the best granola I have ever tried now I usually have it with milk but it is pretty awesome only second fiddle I know you’re shocked it’s only second fiddle to Janelle’s granola that she makes which is actually way better.
But like store bought aable response from you okay I yeah yay I was not expecting him to say this is the best cuz I was going to say this is actually kind of plain Jane in my opinion plain jany it’s a bit plain jany like okay I like super flavorful things I’m PL jie kind of boy I was going to say they just don’t have a lot of flavor I like things.
That are really vanilla or spiced or orangey or chocy this is just it’s fine great crunch again it’s a perfect vessel for other deliciousness to be accompanied with it moving on we bought something from one of our favorite brands at as of late at Costco sprag canery they do all sorts of soups and so we decided to try their organic minerone.
Soup which yes is gluten-free and plant-based we usually buy their three bean chilies and their lentil soup but they were out of their chili which was a little bit sad so we’re like okay Minon it’s your time to shine we’re going to give you a try this week their chili is the best canned chili on the market without a doubt it is okay now this next.
Item technically is not a food item but it no but boy does it get you excited it does I can’t lie um it gets me excited I feel like I’m such an adult now because I get excited about meal prep containers meal prep containers now I do love me a good solid glass container and it’s healthier to store your food in glass containers because Plastics tend to have.
Chemicals that can leech into your food which nobody likes pre girl yeah and glass is just better it’s more durable and you can microwave more better you can microwave them you can bake stuff in these glass containers you can freeze them Moment of Truth here people the number one item no we I don’t know why we ranked it as number one because we’ve.
Never tried it and so this is but I have hope I think it’s going to be worthy of as number one this is the show where the ratings mean nothing just because it’s number one does not mean it’s number one in our hearts yet but let’s try it out it would be these Doritos tropical fusion fusion sorry let’s try that again that’s okay that works these these.
Tropical Fusion tortilla chips and uh spicy yeah you might be wondering are they really plant-based I’ve always wondered cuz there are Doritos that are not plant-based that you guys should know about the cheese ones like nacho cheese not plant-base but these ones we looked up we stood there for 10 minutes in the store we studied the ingredients.
We we studied the macros we googled them we googled them in Costco we were there in a corner with a with a bunch of bags of them cuz there were only few left and we were like can we eat these and it was a 10-minute discussion that went back and forth as we were on our phones and yes we can yes so today we will eat them I don’t know what they smell.
Like M I have no idea what I’m eating right now almost tastes like a hamburger or like hamburger chips or I’m thinking like a luau I’m trying to put my head around the whole tropical thing and like are they Hawaiian maybe like a Hawaiian luau flavor yes tastes like a Hawaiian luau whatever that might taste like I don’t not like them I’m just like.
