What's the best Trader Joe's frozen dessert. Let's talk about that. [Funky intro music]. Good Mythical Summer. Welcome to the final day of Beat the Heat Week. It's also the first day of August, which means. we've officially reached the dog days of summer. Can I get a woo woo? Can I get a woo woo? I said, can I get a woo woo?

Okay. Woo woo. Oh yeah. What better way to spend the last day of. Beat the Heat Week. I didn't realize it was dog Days of summer. That's what we're in. Yeah. Woo's. That's the thing that, woo woo. Okay. All right. All right. What better way to spend the last day of Beat the Heat. Week than a trip through the mecca of grocery store. frozen treats, the Trader Joe's frozen section. Woo woo. Yep. You can buy a boring pint of ice cream at any old. grocery store, but Trader Joe's has such a diverse. array of frozen desserts. It is really something special.

How could you even pick a favorite? By trying every single one. It is time for Gut Check. Trader Joe's frozen desserts edition. Okay, boys, today you'll be tasting 26 different treats. from the Trader Joe's freezer section for you to decide. which is the best of the best. 26. Huh? Do I have some sort of aid so that I can score these. on a accurate and scale? On accurate and scale? Yeah.

Yeah, I do. And it's right here. It looks like you do. Thank you for this team. Uh, it looks like I also have a scoring aid, but No, it. was in the frozen section. So let me, oh, I can't even look at it. Maybe if I could, maybe you could see that if I can. Oh, stop. No, see, it's kind of highlights the fear of. mine with this episode. You're afraid of ice? Somebody biting into things? I don't know. No, you just touch it. Oh, just touch it.

It, oh. It's not the coldness necessarily, it's, it's the, um, it's nails on chalkboard for me kind of a thing. Really. The biting of the coldness. What? You don't have to put your mouth on it. I know, well, I can't see it anyway. Touch touching it too, so I'll just set it up. and looking at it also. And in case either if you need a pallet cleanser, we've got some Trader Joe's brand Sparkling Water to. go with all your Trader Joe's brand desserts. Also, not a sponsor. We haven't said at any point, but we've said Trader Joe's a. million times, not a sponsor. Uh, you can be as mean as you want and your first--.

I love Trader Joe's. Category is fruity. Starting with--. Here we go. Strawberry mochi. Ooh, I love mochi. We're already doing this. Okay. See, these are easy to bite. Oh, oh, oh. I love it. It's doughy, it's soft. It's biteable, it's cold on the inside. I love it. 83. I love everything about it except the strawberry ones. I think we're, are we gonna get other ones?

Maybe? Uh, 79. Oh, blood orange mochi. Oh, I don't know. Now we're talking. I love that. Doughy, doughy. It was like an orangesicle, like a dreamsicle. Like a sherbert. What? 84. 97. What? I, hold on a second. I love it. Sokka. I love it.

Mango mochi. Oh, mango. Oh. It's what I imagine it would feel like if you really. bitten into somebody's lip and just didn't let go. I was thinking that it's like very fleshy and cannibalistic. Yeah. Um, I like the mango. I don't like it as good. It's not as good as the sherbert. 81. 82. Mango cream bars.

Oh, that's pretty. It is such a good store. Well cold. It really is. It got so much good stuff. What is that, frozen? It's, it's icy, but then creamy on the middle. I like it. It's just I, I like that the biting into the lip better. So I'm gonna give it a 78. I'm gonna give it at a 67. Tangerine cream bars. Okay.

Even when I put it on my mouth, I'm crushing it. with the roof of my mouth. I'm not using my teeth. You scared? No, it hurts, man. It's something that I have and other people. have that you don't. Maybe I'm feeling it, maybe I just don't feel. it in the same way. Um, I don't like this one as much. Me neither. 60. 58. Gone Bananas. Dark chocolate covered banana slices. Oh yeah. Uhhuh and, well so many of these with the kids, man.

My kids lived on these and I ate a lot. Daddy ate a lot. It's nothing but bananas in there, daddy. It's a frozen banana with chocolate on top. Man, that is good. I went to a ice cream shop. Sometimes it'll be like a Sunday night late. and I'll like go up. I'll say, Lando, I think we need to go get some ice cream. Went over there. We were eating in the parking lot. A woman got a frozen banana, didn't know they served them. And I watched her. What? Okay, eat it.

But I watched her come back. You shouldn't have. I didn't because she didn't want to get in her car. You can't watch a woman eat a banana of any kind. And she knew this. I always turn away. She, she stood behind her car and then faced away from. everybody and ate her banana. Yep. And then even as I drove away and I tried to get. a look at her eating a banana, she turned. Yeah. She would. You gotta turn for her. If I see a woman with a banana, I wasn't even. if she's not about to eat it, I turn away. I wasn't really trying to see her eat it.

I turn. But I was curious. I don't know if you're gonna eat that. She was hiding eating the banana in public instead of. just getting her in a car. Go ahead. Uh, I think that's great also your story and also. the banana that I just had. I think it's almost a perfect, 90. 90. I love it. I don't like bananas. It's pretty dang good. So 60. A gone berry. Crazy, dark chocolate covered strawberry pieces. What? So that's part of a strawberry.

Strawberry doesn't have the same flavor that a banana has. If you didn't know. Strawberries don't bring enough flavor. when they're cold. Okay. Uh, I'm not gonna spit it out. That's good. I like it, but I want it to be better. 61. That was like torture for me. Um, there's a lot of frozen things that are gonna keep. happening. But that one in particular like--. Can we maybe come up with like a mouth guard? The bite ability of frozen strawberries is the worst.

Yeah. They demand to be bitten again and again. But why don't they sell like an Invisalign for people? You could just get Invisalign just for this purpose, right? Because Invisalign will keep you from feeling. it on your teeth. Next. He's not even interested. Organic freezer pops orange. I'm trying to help you out, man. What, what is that?

Just a freezer pop. Just an orange freeze. It's like frozen orange juice. But it's like fizzy. I did not experience any fizz. That might be just something bubbling up from your stomach. Um, tastes really good. It's not anything to write home about. Very refreshing. Uh, I don't love it. 57. 77. Good pool treat. Did you say something that I said? 57. Oh, okay. Uh, organic freezer pops berry.

I bet you I like this one even better. Hmm. Mm-hmm. Hmm. 88. I feel exactly the same. 57. You, hold on. You don't even like frozen things, but. you're giving this an 88. I can lick it. Well, I can lick frozen things. Okay. And I'm putting myself in that position. Organic freezer pops cherry limeade. What if you got a dental dam?

Woo. I already have one. No. How does a dental dam work? I don't know. I don't really, how does it? I'll tell. We can talk about it afterwards. Okay. But you think it would help Link? I am trying to help my man out. He won't take Invisalign. I, I don't, I don't love that. Maybe he'll get a dental dam. I don't. 48 for that one. I don't know what he wants. I don't know what he needs. I don't want anything just for you to get off my back.

You complain about every time you something cold goes. in your mouth and I don't wanna hear it every time. No, I actually stopped a few ago. Okay. Uh, I didn't really like that either. 49. Hold the cone. Mini ice cream cones, strawberry. Holy. Do I want to get a little bit of the cone? Like that's what you did, Man. How many of these are you supposed to eat at once? I'd say five to seven. Yeah, you would.

Five to seven. A handful. He could eat five to seven, literally at once. Um, that's just like a nutty buddy almost. I am gonna anticipate that there's other flavors. and give this one a $40. Is that because you see them holding them? Um, no, I don't look over there. It would be better if it wasn't strawberry. I agree with that, but I'm really into it. 64. That concludes the Fruity Frozen Treats category. Our next category is non fruity. Yeah.

Starting with Hold the Cone Mini ice cream cones. Chocolate flavor. Mm-hmm. Oh, huh. That chocolate is, um, rich. It's very rich. It's almost too much. Something's a little off about that one. It's the chocolate's a little syrupy. 37. Yeah. Yeah. I like it though. Yeah. It's like 62. Hold the cone. Mini ice cream cones. Coffee bean. Oh, that's, oh, look at the cone.

Oh, this is the same coffee ice cream that comes in. the bigger containers. Wow. It's really good. Whoa. Yep. Mm-hmm. 86, 81. Hold the cone. Many ice cream cones. Chocolate chip. Okay. Kind of boring after that last one.

59. That's really good. That's more nutty buddy ish because of the. But no nuts. 74. Don't let him lead you to believe there's nuts. Sublime ice cream sandwiches. Okay. What? So it's a, it's a cookie. It's a cookie ice cream sandwich. Soft cookie. It's really good. Hmm. Hmm. 77. That's legit.

77. Oh, okay. Brownie crisp coffee, ice cream sandwiches. Oh, lots of words. Um, I've got, that coffee ice cream is just dialed in. Brownie soft. Brownie soft. Um. 78.

The cone. The cone one. Yeah. Was a perfect presentation of that coffee ice cream. That is a good presentation. I don't think it's perfect though. 70. Root beer float bars. This is a thing. I hate it, but I don't like root beer.

So am I abstaining? No. Okay. Then 10. I do like root beer, but I don't know why that's. not working for me. 48. Non-dairy oat ice cream sandwiches. Okay. It needs dairy. Yep. It lacks dairy. 35. It lacks the toast.

You know what I'm saying? Two. Two. That's a 22. Oh. That concludes the non fruity frozen treats category. Our next and final category is fall and serve. desserts. Fall and serve. Fall and serve. I like the sing songy nature. Italian tiramisu. Okay. Okay. So now we're not. in too cold territory.

We're in thawed territory. That's a really good tiramisu. I like really thawed stuff. And that you're, you're right about that. I just, and now you know that tiramisu has, um, coffee. in it because you didn't know that last time. we, we encountered it. Now I know that. Yeah. You know that now. It, it's on the good side of tiramisu's that I've had. 74. I love that. 81. Strawberries and cream cloud cake. Cloud cake. Is that a cloud cake?

I was trying, I was trying not need all of. it and I basically did. Well, you didn't eat that. Cloud cake is like a strawberry shortcake. Yeah. Um. The strawberries do what they do in that stuff, which is like, they get kind of slimy, mushy mush. 31. I like the mushy mush of a strawberry shortcake. Um, I, I 64. Portuguese donuts with chocolate hazelnut filling.

Huh? Portuguese donut. Are you talking about a Masada? What is this? Yeah, take that. I don't want it. I'm not loving the texture of that, kind of papery. 27. 51. Chocolate's nice though. Japanese souffle, cheesecakes. Okay.

What in the world, trader? So fluffy. I kinda like the density of a good cheesecake though. It's not as cheesy as I want my cheesecake to be. It's great. But because I know it could be weightier and cheesier, I don't think it's great. Uh, I'm just saying if you told me that it wasn't. cheesecake, you were like, here's this Japanese. Yeah. Then I might like, but I know what it could be. I was 50 straight. 39.

Tres leches cake. How many? Tres. Okay. Hmm. Hmm. I'm loving the leches. See, it makes a cake. That's not what, that was dry. Super moist. Oh, that's good. That's surprisingly good. 88. Uh, 77. New York Deli style cheesecake. This is what we've been trying to get to. Yeah. Here we go.

Yeah. Oh, oh, great crust. Perfectly dense. Nice cheesiness. Mm-hmm. It is still just cheesecake, but it's really good thaw. 82. 82. Classic lemon bars. Hmm. Oh, I, I like a lemon bar on a hot day. I like lemon bar.

I can't think of a time. And that's a good lemon bar. That's a homemade tasting Lemon bar. 33. Give it to him. 73. Key lime pie. Oh my favorite pie. I know you love it Rhett. Hmm? Now the key lime pie is the lemon bar that you. like to have around. Hmm. Is everything that a lemon bar has plus more tangy torky.

Crusty. I'm comparing it to every key lime pie I've ever had. I've had key lime pie on a stick dipped in. chocolate in Key West. He has, I have, I believe him. I wasn't there, but I believe him. This isn't as good as that. Not as good as that. Well, it's different than that. 72. 50. That concludes the thaw and Serve dessert category. Oh yes. You have now tasted every kind of Trader Joe's. frozen dessert, and your scores will be tabulated.

He does. We are gonna give you your top four desserts to. try again and crown your favorite as ll Cool Joe. But first, your individual favorites, Rhett. Yours was of course the gone bananas. Dark chocolate covered banana slices. Mm-hmm. Sorry, I couldn't help you. And Link, yours was the blood orange mochi. That was my Fav? And of course, the one that you both disliked. the most was the non-dairy oat. Uh, ice cream sandwiches. Mm-hmm. Overall, top four desserts. in no particular order, were hold the cone mini.

ice cream cones, coffee bean, New York deli style. cheesecake, blood orange mochi, and tres leches cake. Well, you know, this is my favorite overall. Cheesecake really is great. You can get a lot of cheesecakes, but I kind of. feel like it's a cheesecake. It's just a cheesecake. There's not anything like to get super excited about, we. only got three spots up here. I think it's, let's get rid of it. Yeah, let's get rid of it. It's good. And now let's think about.

But it's not too special. Let's think about the tri leche. I mean, if you want to bring the box in, I don't know if. that makes you happy, but makes me a little happy. This for, for not a cake lover. really surprised us. It's really good. It has this like. homemade family reunion type treat, like Aunt. Hilda's gonna bring her trace leches cake again.

Mm-hmm. He's so good. You wouldn't believe it. It really, really, really delivers. Um, okay. Well these. You love these things, don't you? I do. I mean, I thought you, did you think they look. like boobies on the end? I mean, it's just fun. Multiple textures. The coffee is so good. Ice cream. Ice cream inside. It's just cream and pungent. Dang.

This is not gonna be easy. No, this look, doesn't this just look like you're. eating a little tangerine or whatever they're called. Like a video game character--. The little cuties I'm talking about like the little. Hmm. Man, they're all really good. Sherbert. I, I wanna put this above the coffee because the. experience of biting into the mochi is a fun thing. It's more, you said that was fun. This is more fun. I think the blood orange specifically, the blood orange.

is a little bit of a, maybe too much of a curve ball. Let's just put this at three. Keep going. I'm happy with that. I'm ha, I'm happy with putting, but I also think. that the coffee ice cream is, I think these are. actually both polarizing. 'cause some people don't like coffee ice cream. Yeah. And some people don't like orange flavored sweet things. At least choose one. Treat yo self. I feel like they'd be good together. I, I don't want to do that. I don't know, man. I, I'm, I'm lobbying for the mochi, but not really hard.

Mm. It's just like a mild lobby. It might be more of a foyer. We've never done this before, but I kind of feel. like we should let fate decide between these two. What do you mean? Which one fits up here better? No, I, I don't know what you mean by that. I, I mean, I don't have a suggestion. Well, let's throw 'em both into the air and see which. one lands on the top spot. Yeah. 3, 2, 1.

Alright, so mine landed, but then mine said. Uhuh and took it off. I mean, that was beautiful. That was beautiful. So what is fate saying that--. I think, I think the fate says we gotta do it again. The fate. I think the fate's saying that the coffee. 3, 2, 1. Oh, it's back. Right back in your hands. This is stupid. Let's not shirk our responsibilities.

Let's make a decision. Well, my, see what we do? My vote is the, uh, icey, the cones. All right. First ever complete tie, fate has decided. We'll put the K goal hat on the, on the mini hold the cone coffee bean, and we'll put. the, the sunglasses on them. On the blood orange mochi. There's just that many good things to Trader Joe's. I mean, not a sponsor, but boy, they could be.
