Chocolatey-Coated Crispy Rice Bites At Trader Joe’s
Got a sweet tooth? Us too! And when it’s time to stock up on snacks, there’s no place quite like Trader Joe’s. This cult-favorite grocery store always has a range of treats to try, and the internet is always buzzing with one new item or another. One of the latest things to get some good buzz on Reddit is a delicious vegan treat: Chocolatey-Coated Crispy Rice Bites.
One Reddit user shared a photo of the item in a post titled “Chocolate Coated Peanut Butter Crispy Rice Bites 11/10.” That’s about as high as a rating gets! “These taste like little miniature Scotcharoos,” the poster wrote, referring to a peanut buttery, Rice Krispies-based treat. “They must be a new fall item!! They’re the perfect bite size treat!” Sounds delicious!
While there were a few mixed reviews in the comments, with some shoppers expressing disappointment in the lack of peanut butter flavor, many people joined in singing the praises of this snack. "I’m addicted. I bought 5 boxes the last time I went to Trader Joe’s," one comment reads.
"I won't buy them because I simply like them too much and can go through the whole box without thinking," another admitted.
Someone else made a similar confession: "I ate two pack in two days. I need more!!!"
As the original poster suggested by comparing them to Scotcharoos, these treats seem to be similar to a peanut buttery Rice Krispies treat with a chocolate coating. If you're a fan of this flavor combo, you may also enjoy the Peanut Butter Brookies. All in all, there's bound to be something that everyone enjoys at Trader Joe's.
