Promising review: "This za'atar is the best quality I have found. I've also found that the balance of sumac and thyme to be just right. This instantly spices up my boring meal prep food and I put it on my chicken, meats, salads, yogurt, or just in olive oil--basically it makes everything taste so much better. I highly recommend it!" — TC

Promising review: "It's so hard to find these in my neighborhood, so not only is it an incredible value for a tasty product, but the convenience can't be beat. I sprinkle them on salads, potatoes (mashed, baked, cheesy fries), and black beans with rice. A wonderfully salty little boost. Arrived quickly without issue." —Lisa

Promising review: "Having a container specifically for soy sauce makes it easier to find in the fridge. It also makes eating Chinese/Japanese food or white rice feel more authentic — like I'm in a restaurant." —Android Zulu

This stuff is quite literally the seeds and salt found on Everything Bagels stripped off the bagels and put into a jar. Now look, I have a lot of favorite Trader Joe's products that I can write essays on my love for, but this one is one of my absolute favorites. I can't ever be without this in my spice cabinet, and in fact, all this talking about it is making me want to go eat a mashed avocado mixed with this seasoning. So, that's what I'm going to do while you go buy this. Check out the rest of my review here.

Promising review: This is by far the very best jam I have ever tasted. I’ve paid just a few dollars less for so-called “artisan” or “organic” jam, and nothing has even come close to this product. It has a true strawberry flavor with just a touch of tartness. Not to be missed!" —Karen C. Stroup

Promising review: "I love the McCormick brand cinnamon, I use it a lot for baking. I forgot to buy some at the store and turned to Amazon since I was all out. This is such a great deal!! You get so much for an amazing price. I won’t buy the expensive little bottles anymore." —Madeline

Promising review: "I like crushed red pepper. I'm one of those people who will put it on pizza, almost any soup, and more. You can get crushed red pepper at a lot of different places, including those dollar stores. Because of that, people tend to think that they are all the same or there is little difference between them. Please do not buy dollar store crushed red pepper. It's usually stale, mostly seeds, and overall terrible quality. Buy this stuff instead. It's really nice quality, crushed red pepper. The bottle I got was pretty fresh and did not go overboard in terms of seeds or other fillers. If you think I'm crazy, buy a bottle of this, buy a bottle of dollar store stuff, and compare them side by side. You will see a difference. I mean physically SEE a difference. Then when you try it, you'll notice that you need to use a lot less of the Happy Belly to get the job done. When considering that, does the dollar store stuff really save you any money?" —A. Antonio

Promising review: "I first used this soup base at the small family restaurant where I worked. This base is amazing. You can add it to a recipe without being limited by all the salt and MSG that is in most chicken bases. The flavor is VERY good, and makes a huge improvement to the meal. I use it in chicken and dumplings, chicken pot pie, chicken stew, and everybody's favorite chicken noodle soup. I recommend it highly, and I will be buying it again as needed." —Mimi

Promising review: "Excellent product and great price. Perfect for soup base, gravy, roasts, and much more. Doesn't take much of this stuff to add good flavor to foods so it really will last a good while. Well worth it because now I don't have to hold back gagging when the wife asks if dinner is OK." —L&J

When you're not using this coconut milk for ramen, or if you wanna buy coconut milk with zero intentions of using it for ramen, it can also be used as a dairy-free milk alternative in baking, coffee, cereal, and more.
Promising review: "I am so glad I decided to give this organic coconut milk a try. This is the best coconut milk — it has that sweet, delicious coconut flavor like no other. I tried a lot of different kinds of coconut milk, but they were all plain and lacked flavor, but Native Forest organic coconut milk is bursting with flavor. I recommend this product 100%, and of course I will buy it again." —Goryann

Promising review: "I love using garlic to cook and having a big jar of garlic powder is a necessity. It's extremely versatile as I can use it with anything, anywhere. I primarily use it to season my meats before I grill or bake them, but on the days I'm feeling lazy and don't want to smash some garlic, I just sprinkle this onto whatever I'm cooking instead of using the real thing." —Stop Jack

Promising review: "A great product. I like dates and have been eating and using them in recipes for a while, but this is the first time I've used, or even heard of, date syrup. When I first saw it I thought it was a brilliant idea, and it turns out it really is. I've used it as an alternative sweetener in various recipes and just drizzled it on straight and it's been great in every application. It works great, tastes great, and is more nutritious, too. I'll definitely be ordering more." —Scott Quirico

Promising review: "First they said add mayo to your corn and I was like ok, maybe, and I did and it was good. Then I found this and it's like an inspiration to eat corn with every meal — but don't because you will probably get an intestinal blockage. BUT, if you do eat corn, use this seasoning." —sherry l white

Promising review: "I use this in my egg salad and everyone just raves over it. I served egg salad sandwiches at a large gathering recently and many people kept coming back for more and seeking me out to compliment me on it. I believe these chives can be credited with making my egg salad superior." —Sharon Edwards

Promising review: "This Nutella is a lower price than at my local grocery store, so I purchased it on Amazon. Product arrived quickly and fresh with smooth texture. It's perfect on fresh strawberries or sliced toast. I'm enjoying it mixed into Nutella Lattes at home — so delicious!
Here's how to make Nutella Lattes: fill cup with espresso, stir in one tablespoon of Nutella until it melts, add frothy milk, top with whipping cream, then sprinkle on Belgian Chocolate Curls (found on Amazon)! Oh so good!!" —Christine Abraham

Promising review: "I really love this hot sauce, the pungent truffle aroma goes very well with the amount of spice in this sauce. Keep in mind that the sauce tastes better paired with food than on its own. Definitely one of the most unique and best hot sauces I’ve tried." —Michael Mercer

Promising review: "The basil arrived just minutes ago, and I had to get a taste of it. As expected, it's deeeee-lish-us! As I've been doing for a long, long time, I'll be sprinkling it on almost everything that goes into my belly. Haven't done it yet, but I've even thought about trying it on vanilla ice cream." —Oldieman

Promising review: "Love this product. I had previously been grinding my own. What a hassle. This just pours out easily and takes a second. I'll never grind again. Tastes great too. I add it to my cereal every morning for extra health benefits." —Shari Rosenman

Promising review: "Now I can get Taco Bell flavor on grass-fed ground beef with no fillers. Even tastier than going to Taco Bell. Hey, I'm not a purist. I just prioritize. Update: I'm vegan now for health reasons, and this stuff works great on French lentils!" —ABC MOM

Promising review: "I ordered this to use in a bread pudding recipe. It worked well in the recipe, and is absolutely delicious eaten on crackers, or just by itself. I love gingerbread, ginger snaps, and Speculoos/Biscoff cookies. At first, experiencing that flavor in a soft spread was a little strange, then it grew on me. It's delicious, and tastes kind of like eating the batter out of the mixing bowl when you're baking. It arrived on time and may have been one of the most carefully packed items that I've ever received form Amazon. I'll be ordering more soon." —Lin in NYC
