My Ode to Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Products

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Wash U chapter.

My all-time favorite grocery store and my all-time favorite fall treat combined forces, and it is nothing short of magical. Pumpkin is not just a food product anymore. And Trader Joe’s is changing the game.

Pumpkin Face Masks? They have it. Pumpkin dog treats? Without a doubt. Pumpkin ice cream? Well, that’s just obvious.

Trader Joe’s is so cool that they even changed the labeling of these products to Pilgrim Joe’s to get us all in the Thanksgiving mood.

I cannot forget to mention Pumpkin Body Butter, Gluten-Free Pumpkin Spice Bagels (celiacs they are looking out for you, too), Pumpkin Rolls with Pumpkin Spice Icing that bring Pilsbury to shame, and my favorite, Pumpkin Cream Cheese Spread.

In addition, there’s Pumpkin Butter to spread on everything, and I mean everything. Pumpkin Os that are an adorable substitute to Cheerios. Pumpkin Spice Coffee that can bring a little extra sweetness into each morning.

The list goes on for ages, and your time in the aisles of Trader Joe’s searching every pumpkin product could be endless.

This Thanksgiving, I think of who and what in my life I am thankful for, those I cannot live without, who make me smile constantly and make my heart full of love.

So, Trader Joe’s I am thankful for you.
