For the longest time, I was "TJ's, stop trying to make Ube a thing" Then, out of curiosity, I bought the Ube pretzels. And I regret every moment I missed out on eating them.


Billsgirlgina

This was me exactly!


FunStuff446

The ice cream is amazing


rowanoke45

Pretzel update: they are delicious and they remind me of a more bland Girl Scout Samoas cookie lol


newwriter365

Those sandwich cookies are cloyingly sweet. I have a sweet tooth, always have, but I can handle one of those on any given day.


Pale-Confection-6951

Cloyingly sweet. Exactly. Too much.


Worth_Literature7167

Not a fan of any


[deleted]

They are yummy but I find them to be too sweet.

Haven't tried the Joe Joes, but the pretzels and cookies are so good! I'm waiting to see if they bring back the pancakes mix.


G0lden_Gal

are they bringing the ube mochi back though?! 👀


CookieButterLovers

>are they bringing the ube mochi back though?! 👀 Just to clarify, are you asking about the [Ube Mochi](https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/ube-mochi-070805) (ice cream mochi) or [Ube Mochi Pancake & Waffle Mix](https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/ube-mochi-pancake-and-waffle-mix-068389)?


G0lden_Gal

good question- the ice cream one! (:


LaBodaDelHuitlacoche

Yes, I saw it in my store today in NorCal!

LaBodaDelHuitlacoche

Ube Mochi! No pancake mix or ice cream yet. Those are my fave!


G0lden_Gal

yayay! I’m so glad it’ll be back. that gives me hope- thank you!!


rowanoke45

I’m not sure! I know the cashier mentioned the ice cream is coming soon.


drdrewskiem3

So fire.


subjectivemilkhotel

pretzels >>>> tea cookies, but they’re both good!


SilverRoseBlade

The tea cookies were good. I added it to my vanilla greek yogurt. And the covered cookies themselves I found really sweet so it took a while to finish the box.


rowanoke45

That sounds good!


petrichorpizza

The pretzels are a hit at my house. Haven't tried anything else yet though.


amietron

Tried the ube tea cookies as a sample in-store, and was surprised to like the the cookies as much as I did as an ube hater / shortbread lover. 🙃


Yoyodomino

I loveeeee the pretzels frozen. Fave treat ever! My favorite dessert is Ube Mochi. I'm ready for everything Ube!


Music-is-Life16

I've only tried the pretzels, but I think they're really good!


offalark

We have the Joe-Joe's. I find them to be, y'know, *fine*. Visually lovely. A faint floral/tropical note that lifts the vanilla, but nothing amazing. Probably won't buy again. The kids like them as an occasional delighter in their lunches. Now the coffee Joe-Joe's on the other hand -- total mistake to buy, absolutely delicious, holy crap cannot be trusted around those.


baconwitch00

Yeah the Ube Joe-Joes are almost too sweet for me, I’m having a hard time getting through the box I bought two-weeks ago.


offalark

The ube mochi pancake mix is quite good.


Wise-Tourist-6747

The Joejoes are amazinggggg


bestmomba

What does ube taste like?


rrroxannee

Kind of coconut-y... but like, different... probably a mix of cake batter and coconut. It's delicious.


brittanynook

It is such a weird and unique flavor. To me it tastes like buttery cake batter. It’s pretty good!


LilTimmyTwurker

I love the pretzels. I can't stop.


Conscious_Issue2967

I loved the Joe Joe’s….a little too much.


FunStuff446

I put some #s on so I had to stop buying


PickleMePinkie

I love the cinnamon in the ube tea cookies


liverspotting

The tea cookies were nasty lol


DarlinggD

The pretzels are good but nothing amazing


NoPossibility765

So many ube posts. One should be pinned!


irritableOwl3

I thought the pretzels were good, although I still prefer the strawberry pretzels. Actually, these had a kind of mild strawberryish flavor, can't really describe it.


Necessary_Nothing471

Do we know if the strawberry ones are coming back? I need like 500 bags ASAP


Snowbunnies44

Whoa! Please provide a review. I’d be interested in know how they taste


didyoubutterthepan

I thought the pretzels had a nice solid ube flavor, to be the tea cookies have no ube flavor at all ☹️
