Unleashing Flavor Frenzy: Dope Kitchen’s Wild Ride Sampling $144 in Trader Joe’s Delights!
Hey guys it’s Natasha I’m here with my crusty white dog and we’re doing a Trader Joe’s haul hey Natasha hey what’s up I’m also Natasha that’s awesome great name we went shopping well I went shopping at Trader Joe today I actually acquired the other Natasha yeah I’m here as Natasha number two yeah yeah and but the good.
Thing about this one is that she can actually sample gluten I can sample gluten it’s not going to run right through me no it won’t and there’s reasons for that so we’re going to jump into this haul I spent $140 um at Trader Joe’s today and if you’re watching this on YouTube tap that like And subscribe button if you’re on.
Instagram throw me some hearts throw me some comments engage engage engage but only if you’re going to be nice if you have nothing nice to say don’t say it at all don’t say it at all yeah so the first thing Natasha is going to sample her name’s also Nicole by the way and some people know her as dope.
Kitchen I go by Natasha sometimes um as it turned out she moved around the corner for me yeah I’m walking distance now yeah I literally planted a seed years ago about how cool marvista is and then one day she was like why am I outside your house I like I was like I planted that seed yeah.
I didn’t even realize I was so close but I was just walking the dog and strawberry vanilla yogurt flavored pretzels these are back I wish I could have them okay so these are not glutenfree no but they’re really cute I’m recently had tinb I had the Ube ones recently and they kind of tasted awful so yeah they tasted kind of chemically.
At first and then once you chewed through it a little bit a better flavor came out so we’ll see what I think about these I mean I just had a tiny nibble these are way better way better than the U ones okay these are strawberry vanilla flavored yogurt pretzels you can find these like above the freezer section wow I like those these are brand new um I.
Asked you guys in my broadcast channel on Instagram which if you’re not part of it please join um I ask all types of questions and share exclusive content but I asked what I should pick up and you guys wanted me to buy the new caramelized onion and bell pepper turkey patties and the funniest thing about these is she didn’t read these no and.
She just thought there was something in the meat yeah I walked by them at Trader Joe’s looked at the Patty saw some weird green Speckles and thought that’s old meat and as that just bell peppers it’s just bell peppers yeah so I’m going to need to cook those because those are like ready to be cooked um I want to sample these These are called mcob snack.
Snackers they’re not brand new at Trader Jo but I bought them like a year ago and they reminded me of like my favorite Thai food all in one bite oh wow look at these that’s beautiful you know what I mean I wish I bought these really yeah I can give you some of the bag no it’s okay okay no it’s.
Okay I can afford my own snacks why must afraid they’re going to be gone they only had a few left but these are really good they’re gluten-free and they’re vegan they have like a a crunchy rice noodle and a little bit of like lime zest what is that other flavor there’s also Tamarind paste Tamarind is like one of those flavors really what is that mhm.
It’s Tamarind wow I really like that I can very much taste the lime mhm so it’s almost like sweet but with like Savory notes I like it a lot I I don’t know like the best case instance when I’m like craving these mhm is it like when you want lunch and you’re not sure what you want for lunch you just chew on one of these while you decide what you want.
yeah hearts of palm rice um I made this for the first time in forever the other night it was really good it’s a really good low carb option um if you’re doing any sort of Keto and you don’t want to have rice fries this is really really good and it tricks your brain like you really don’t even notice that it’s not.
Real rice I cook it with a little bit of olive oil and then like I sauté other things with it kind of like the picture on the box I add zucchini you can add Peppers all types of things this is a good one um this is brand new we’ll have to try this not right at this moment take some crap but this is the tropical in tropical green tea instant Boba kit.
Although does say it is instant it’s not they’re lying sons of they are cuz it it takes 2 to three minutes oh wow that’s not instant at all that is so far from instant yeah um so yeah we we will definitely review this um because it’s not instant has the time who has the time two to three minutes brand new salsa.
Chicken Verde oh ped chicken salsa verde that looks really good I have been craving like a huge quesadilla oh yeah with chicken Verde like salsa verde in it um for me the only barrier to entry for that is like I have to find gluten-free tortillas and they took them away at Trader Joe’s what about corn tortillas I have a corn allergy too oh.
Wow it’s not that bad but it’s enough that like they have really good gluten-free tortillas that are not corn so anyways I’m I’m going to do something with that um this is the best watermelon juice you ever had it no but I recently had watermelon juice in Costa Rica and it’s phenomenal let me know if this Stacks up all this is.
Is toer sampling cups thank you this is literally 1.3 lbs of watermelon and a fifth lemon pretty good I definitely taste the lemon yeah not as good as the watermelon juice I had in Costa Rica but it’s really good for like a a pressed one press okay we’ve got a tough critic here um brand new jar chocolate covered.
Pistachios wow I almost bought two bags of these because I like dark chocolate and I like pistachios it’d be really good to make like a um like a pistachio homemade pistachio ice cream and then put these in it I taste a dark chocolate I do too and.
I’m usually not a dark chocolate fan but this this one isn’t so bad this is ridiculous yeah I feel like I want to bite into it so I can see the chocolate to nut ratio you know what I mean can we can we score that I have veneers they might break off so really I have to go back on my charm first when I do this oh okay I feel.
Like that’s a thick layer of chocolate it’s a super thick layer of chocolate super thick I would appreciate less chocolate really mhm see I I stand on the other side I love dark chocolate now have you had the skinny dip or these ones the slightly coated chocolate filing.
Cabinet so these are the slightly coated dark chocolate almond okay is this the sort of coating you’re looking for yeah okay yeah but this is like a dark chocolate powder right it’s going getting all over my hands they yeah they roll it in some sort of mhm but this is a better ratio maybe slightly more than this but a lot.
Less notes I’ve got notes today yeah she’s got notes he’s on one um this is a brand new cheese we’ll try this it was actually um in the spotlight for Trader Joe’s semi- soft made in the mountains of trentino region of Italy I feel from there that really no I don’t.
Know my that’s actually my mother’s recipe um wow it looks like it could be hard like a Parmesan but it’s not but it’s not it’s a softer cheese it’s like a mozzarella texture in a Parmesan Shake oh that’s true it does have that mozzarella like string cheese almost but I don’t know if it’s strings no ooh goes well with the the chocolate.
We just say yeah I feel like like that kind of tastes like mozzarella but a little bit sharper little sharper mhm M I like that what would you put it on um I would maybe like put it on a sandwich yeah slice it up yeah with melt it yeah you can melt it okay I have a lot of cheese oh okay great should see my cheese dra cool kind.
Of a it’s a it’s a flex yeah yeah picked up some coffee beans I make my own cold brew oh nice St love cold room are you a hot coffee drinker um I no longer really drink coffee I don’t drink it at home anymore what do you drink um I drink water I do drink mud water or nothing at all okay M do you drink water yeah I do I yeah I.
Hydrate I don’t need anything um these are new and you have to sample them these are green olive Flats Italian crackers interesting I’m not an olive fan so we’ll see if I like these and pickles right hate olives hate pickles at least I got one thing.
Oh okay okay Trader Joe’s are there olives in them in them but I like the way this box like that is smart packaging although I feel like it should have been more sealed like so I don’t know let’s see okay they’re like tiny little Olive bits not whole olives those are pretty.
Good yeah not bad what would you eat these with cheese cheese oh you know what they are sealed cuz this is sealed mhm You’ eat it with cheese mhm the cheese the Italian cheese with the Italian crackers yeah okay and she doesn’t like olives but she does approve of this mhm I’m trying to get it back in its foam it’s.
Not going to work okay do you guys know what these are Rainer cherries mhm um let’s see if they’re good I I see I buy the ones that are a little bit more red is this like some of them looked more yellow yeah it’s definitely darker than the package I bought there a good batch mhm I don’t.
Clean them off no I never do that’s probably why I have four Mo issues ballet and whatnot yeah um organic shredded reding and cabbage I like cabbage and I especially bought it because they have this new vinegarette which is this organic mango vinegarette it was ridiculous they let us sample it at Trader Joe’s um right.
When we walked in we got like a little salad sample but I think it would be good on like a SLA and then like a black and fish taco oh yeah yeah I agree okay um these chips are ridiculous and they’re seasonal so I bought them again I’ve actually bought five bags in the last week wow because I had a bag at home and then I bought another bag and.
Then I bought bags for having people over okay and that was the only chip option they had everyone was like what why why and I was like cuz I like them um and then I’m in the mood to make like some sort of a crunchy salad um and so I I’m going to cut up some sugar snap peas um and some regular peas okay um and then I.
Kind of got distracted with that like I was going to buy more things I could chop up mhm and that’s oh you know what I did I got cucumbers nice I’m going to make it like a weird salad you’ll see it promise um I like this for my sandwiches powerder of the greens this was also I think what we sampled the vinegarette with yeah I.
Think so so it’s a good one for salads too um these mangoes are actually really good and I have some complaints the last time I got them I’m going I’m going to cut one okay I’ll give them a second chance I bought these maybe a week or two ago Y and we didn’t cut into them for a few days so maybe that was my issue I.
Probably should have cut into them right away but they tasted awful when I when I Tri I don’t know what it was they were like super bitter not sweet but I’ve had these in the past and they were amazing so we’ll see am I doing this wrong okay here we go I hope it’s a good one cuz this like this might be it like if this isn’t good.
You’re not you’re probably not going to I’m never going to get them again I know I just think I just sliced my finger oh no that’s fine I actually cut a whole chunk of my finger the other day cuz I got this brand new knife and it’s like a super fancy almost $2 dangerous so you have to kind of eat it like this and then you.
Just it’s a good one that’s a good one yeah okay I don’t hate these anymore they’re so good M last year I think I gained several pounds eating these cuz there’s no added sugar yeah no and it’s just organic mhm mhm these are really good I didn’t learn how to cut a mango for a while it took.
Me a YouTube education I am being ridle cooled by the internet um let me just K is your hand sticky a little bit yeah there you go thank you I like that cup is like really it’s my trash cup now I’m just going to add to it go for it okay what else we got M oh these.
Cookies are ridiculous these are gluten-free chocolate chunk cookies they’re over by like the prepared pastry items and I think that if you’re going to eat a cookie get a fresh cookie but these give any fresh cookie like a run for their money they have the oatmeal raisin ones too which are like really good it’s.
Thick mhm what I’ll do is break off a piece of this cookie and put it in ice cream and kind of hit it in yeah and then I re res scoop it like you’re a Cold Stone employ yeah exactly mhm that is really good it’s very dense mhm I like it like for.
A a pre-made cookie these ridiculous mhm so they have non- gluten-free ones but I swear the gluten-free ones better I haven’t tried the other one though but I swear um celery juice I was telling you at Trader Joe’s these are really good these are the organic coconut smoothies they always come in handy so.
This last one I like guzzled I got home from a bike ride I used it and I added protein powder a little bit of collagen my ag1 and I shook it up and I just like chugged it it was so good what else um I got some avocados they should be ripe in a few days um a couple of these acerola cherry juice dots I got these Loom dra.
Flates they’re really good just to have in the fridge but these are also one of the best I really want you to oh you don’t drink coffee okay I would have a sip fine no but like for for something that is not you get another cup oh yeah two cups for something that is like it’s not from like a bista it’s out of a.
Can they’re so good and kind of reminds me of blue bottle like it has has that like chory I think it has chickory chory root fiber in it it’s so good it doesn’t taste um too strong like coffee mm it’s really like creamy and subtle exactly creamy and subtle has a ni a very nice mouth feel too yeah and you don’t know what that means until you have it.
Yeah some nectarines um gluten-free English muffins for my sandwiches um I got some of the brown beach mushrooms I have not bought these in a minute um and I love them so I Revisited those and then I got four of the Italian mineral Sparkling Waters oh and then I picked this up.
Earlier this week and I can’t try it but Nicole can cuz she can eat everything um these are bacon and egg shaped sweet gummy candies so apparently they put gluten in them um would you like an an egg yeah I’ll have an egg it’s one my favorite foods okay I’m just curious are are they is it.
Fruity mhm this feels like something AI made mhm like you know what I mean mhm and then is the bacon the same flavor as the egg oh God it smells really like cherryish yeah I would give that one a cherry flavor okay what about the egg it’s a little fruer okay um they’re okay I just don’t like.
Chewing them okay they’re like they’re they’re very thick there a lot of thick things in this hul yeah okay all right so that is this week’s $144 haul I’m Natasha this is Nicole dope kitchen uh you can find her on Instagram tikt YouTube that I don’t post to often YouTube that she’s not.
