Trader Joe's Hotel Snacks Haul

Trader Joe's Hotel Snacks Haul

When I travel with Christopher for work, we can’t know exactly what his schedule will be like each day, so I like to be prepared with plenty of snacks in case I need to feed myself lunch. Plus, we might get snacky or thirsty after dinner, so we gotta be prepared.

I try to get down to the hotel breakfast in the mornings and sometimes I will grab a few things I can keep for later, like fruit, peanut butter, a granola bar, or yogurt. 

We usually make a Target pick up order at the beginning of the trip for drinks and snacks, but this time we are surrounded by Trader Joe’s locations, which makes me so insanely happy. There are THREE within four miles of our hotel. 

This is what we picked up.

Cheese and crackers are a classic hotel snack, fresh fruit for health, and a salad for an emergency lunch. Then my favorite TJ’s item, chocolate covered peanut butter pretzels, and these new snacky clusters.

The snacky clusters are sea salt potato chips, corn chip dippers, and mini pretzel nuggets, mixed in milk chocolate. They have a really nice crunchy texture and at first I thought they were weird, but then I wanted to eat more of them. I guess that means they’re a win. They will never replace my beloved chocolate covered PB pretzels, but they are a fun new treat option.

Then I snatched a couple peanut butters from breakfast yesterday so I can also make PB crackers. Yum!
