Hello LilyOnTheLam.Com Readers:
Welcome back to "New Product Wednesdays!" I used to have a weekly LilyOnTheLam feature where every Wednesday I would feature a product that was new or at least new to me. Since Trader Joe's has (FINALLY) come to South Tampa, I thought I would re-establish "New Product Wednesdays" to feature some of my new favorites (and not-so-favorites) for my local readers who wish to check out the Trader Joe's experience!
Normally I try to keep chips, cookies and crackers out of my house. The reason is because I have ZERO impulse control. Apparently I took that potato chip slogan "Bet you can't eat just once" as some sort of federal law against eating in moderation.
However when I went to Trader Joe's, I went on an empty, growling stomach. (Hello worst mistake EVER and I do it way too often! I'm an idiot!) Needless to say, all sorts of "naughty" items hopped into my shopping cart. I did show some restraint - instead of the 400+ calorie ice cream sandwiches, I went with 70 calorie mini chocolate ice cream cones, for example. So I wasn't completely off my rocker, but still …
One item that looked fun and interesting were Trader Joe's Pita Crisps with Cranberries and Pumpkin Seeds.
These little darlings were able to stay in my cupboard for a grand total of four days before I opened the bag. I'm pretty sure that's a world record in my house.
These pita crisps are definitely a "must purchase." They taste like little squares of cinnamon toast, not in a chemical way like a certain cinnamon toast cereal out there. But really like a classic cinnamon autumnal toast. They remind me of my childhood - eating bread slathered in butter, sugar and cinnamon before going off to battle - err, I mean my all-white except for me and a few others - elementary school.
These pita crisps would be OVER THE TOP with a shmear of goat cheese and a thin slice of strawberry.
They were soooo good, I had to put these pita crisps on lockdown. I need to hire a security guard to keep me out of my pantry. I seriously could have eaten the entire bag and would have had a big smile on my face!
If you like crunchy, cinnamon-y, sweet but not overly sweet, pita crisps - you need to try these Trader Joe's Pita Crisps with Cranberries and Pumpkin Seeds!
