Trader Joe’s Brought Back Last Year’s Hit Snack, and Fans Are ‘Buying a Dozen This Year’

Trader Joe’s is a beloved chain for its affordable frozen meals, commitment to natural flavors and ingredients, and helpful Crew Members. The grocery store is also known for its unique snacks and treats, often prompting fans to stock up on their favorites.

TJ’s regularly adds new products that keep social media buzzing, with recent additions such as hot honey fudge and ranch dip earning the stamp of approval from shoppers. And the latest sweet treat is a returning product, which mysteriously left shelves last year after earning high praise.

But it’s back, and fans are already buying in bulk.

Trader Joe’s Milk Chocolate Covered Gummy Bears Return to Store Shelves

Trader Joe’s just brought back its Milk Chocolate Covered Gummy Bears. Featuring an assortment of fruit-flavored gummy candy, each bite-sized bear is coated in creamy milk chocolate for a unique soft and chewy texture. And the returning treat is a great buy at less than $4.

The popular candy was discontinued last year, and some fans on Reddit speculated it was due to a typo on the nutrition label, which miscalculated the amount of fiber and sugar per serving. Regardless of the reason for its disappearance, these gummy bears are finally back, and fans are thrilled.

When TJ’s fan @trader_joes_treasure_hunt posted about the candy on Instagram, shoppers were quick to plan their future bulk buys. “I’m buying a dozen this year!” said one fan.

And Reddit shoppers seem to agree. On a recent thread, one fan said, “Sorry guys, but I’m going to buy all of them.”

With all the hype surrounding the sweet treat, you’ll want to head over to your nearest TJ’s and snag a bag (or two) soon. As with most Trader Joe’s finds, there’s no guarantee this returning favorite will be around forever.
