I sampled this last week and immediately put it in my cart. I don't like pumpkin pie and this is a yummy alternative. |

| Trader Joe's coffee ice cream is delicious. Might be a good complement to pumpkin pie instead of vanilla. |

Enjoy the palm oil and corn syrup. |

+1. It's all junk full of seed oils and corn syrup. |

| I get tempted by these things, but then I read the ingredients and put them back on the shelf. So much unknown trash, like reading a chemistry lab’s inventory. |

Agree. Costco stuff is disgusting. Definitely go with TJ. They have a lot of great things in the frozen dessert section. The cranberry pie/tart and lie lime pie are both wonderful. I also would suggest the Kringle. Those are to die for. Maybe it’s a breakfast pastry technically, but it definitely tastes like dessert |

They are full of preservatives -- if you buy them on Mon they will taste the same on Thursday. Which, in my opinion, is not great. But that is the answer. |

This is why I have learned to bake, even though I don't really have the time and energy. And it isn't even that I'm grossed out by the idea of all this stuff, it's that I can very much taste the difference. |
