The 7 Best New Trader Joe’s Items to Try This Month

Trader Joe’s devotees who flock to the store for everything from unexpected new snacks to weeknight dinner saviors are in for a lot of treats this November. In addition to the litany of fall items it released in the past two months, the grocery chain is keeping the seasonal surprises coming with a variety of new finds that fans are already raving about. 

While it’s not the only supermarket to offer limited-edition items as the seasons change, Trader Joe’s is especially known for its ever-changing grocery lineup, featuring private-label products that provide consistently great flavor and can’t be found anywhere else.

This month’s must-try treats include a snack inspired by a classic Thanksgiving side, cheese infused with subtle boozy notes, and a grab-and-go lunch that channels one of TikTok’s trendiest dishes. Whether you’re looking for something to enjoy every day or serve as part of an appetizer spread for friends, TJ’s has you covered as usual.

Thanksgiving Stuffing Seasoned Popcorn

You can now enjoy the savory taste of this classic holiday side dish in a single bag of popcorn at Trader Joe’s. Seasoned with a blend of onion powder, celery seed, thyme, parsley, black pepper, and sage, the Thanksgiving Stuffing Seasoned Popcorn succeeds at capturing the tasting notes you expect from this side.

Maple Pecan Cold Brew Coffee Concentrate

Pumpkin lattes may have a hold on café menus in the fall, but other autumnal flavors also meld well with the bitter notes of coffee. Trader Joe’s Maple Pecan Cold Brew Coffee Concentrate features spiced, sweet, and nutty flavors in a convenient bottle that yields around eight 12-ounce servings.

Made with 100% Arabica coffee beans and flavored with maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, and pecans, the concentrate costs just $10 (or $1.25 per serving), which is a steal compared to the $5 price tag on most PSLs.

Mix it with water or your milk of choice, and your morning coffee is ready to enjoy. For the ultimate fall finish, you can even top it with a layer of Salted Maple Cold Foam Creamer.

English Cheddar Cheese with Champagne

Upgrade any holiday cheese boards this year with the addition of TJ’s sharp and celebratory English Cheddar Cheese with Champagne. Produced by a family of cheesemakers in Somerset County, England, this cheddar is infused with both Champagne and Marc de Champagne (a grape pomace brandy).

Cheese enthusiast and entertaining expert Cortney LaCorte gave the product high marks when she reviewed it online, describing the cheese as “super creamy, super rich. I read that there is a Champagne brandy in this, and that makes sense, because there’s just a tiny bit of sweetness.”

Everything but the Pizza Whipped Cream Cheese

This isn’t the kind of savory spread we expected to see on grocery shelves this year, but Trader Joe’s has indeed developed a cream cheese that tastes like pizza. The recently introduced Everything But the Pizza Whipped Cream Cheese Spread isn’t as strange as it sounds. 

To capture the core flavors of pizza, TJ’s added sun-dried tomatoes, Parmesan, and garlic to the light, airy whipped cream cheese. Spread it on a bagel for a savory breakfast or serve it as a simple dip for crudités.

Chicken Caesar Wrap

Chicken Caesar wraps filled with tangy dressing, greens, and chicken have become especially popular on social media in recent years, with users frequently sharing their favorite renditions of the lunch item from restaurants and grocery stores online.

Now, Trader Joe’s has introduced its own grab-and-go Chicken Caesar Wrap for $5.49. The wrap features chicken breast seasoned with onion and garlic powders, shredded lettuce, and Parmesan wrapped in a spinach tortilla. Don’t worry, each package also comes with a side of garlicky, tangy Caesar dressing made with lemon juice, mayonnaise, Romano cheese, tamari, garlic, anchovy paste, and Dijon mustard.

Brie Cheese Flavored Spread

You don’t need to bake your brie or go through the trouble of using a food processor to make this beloved cheese into something scoopable. Trader Joe’s has transformed the mild, buttery product into a smooth Brie Cheese Flavored Spread that’s easy to stir into pasta, serve on a cheese board, or spread on fall sandwiches.

Creamy Corn 

One thing is clear: Trader Joe’s loves corn. From a sweet, corn-filled ravioli to elote-inspired dip and frozen corn ribs, the supermarket has delivered many corn-flavored delights this year, and this month is no exception.

A batch of rich Creamy Corn now joins the supermarket’s lineup of frozen sides, perfect for last-minute holiday preparations. Sweet corn kernels are coated in a creamy sauce made with milk, cream, butter, cheddar, and shallots. The cheesy corn is ready to bake, and we guarantee that when you scoop into this gooey dish, everyone at the dinner table will be impressed.
