Food, Glorious Food

While this is a minor food item, it's an extremely tasty one -- and has a limited availability, so I thought I should chime in while it's still on the shelves.  If you don't have a Trader Joe's near you, you can skip past all this.  But if you do --

Last week, I got a new (and limited seasonal) product at Trader Joe’s that I’d seen when browsing the store, and had read about, so I thought I should mention it, in case it was something anyone here might like.

It’s called “Teeny Tiny Apple Pies."  As I said, I saw them in the store a few weeks ago, considered getting them -- I love apples, and like apple pie a lot, but it was pumpkin season for me, and I dearly love pumpkin, and had enough of that and other desert products at the time -- so I passed them by.  Since then, though, I read several articles on my news feed about how people have fallen in love with the Teeny Tiny Apple Pies, and the seasonal period for them is limited.  So, I got a box.

They’re small, individual “apple pies.”  Four in a box, each a little smaller than a coaster.  You heat them up for about five minutes (though I suppose you don’t have to, they’re fully cooked).  And it was delicious. 

I told a friend about them who I thought would be up his alley.  He wrote me back with a laugh.  "We bought them on Monday.  They were gone by Thursday."

If it interests you, they’re in the bakery section (of course).  For a limited time.  And the clock on that started about 3-4 weeks ago.
