Trader Joe's Strawberry Yogurt Flavored Almonds

It would probably be more honest and accurate to call these "almonds coated with strawberry flavored sugar" because, let's face it: that stuff ain't yogurt. If you read carefully, you'll note that it's a "yogurt flavored coating" made of palm kernel oil and miscellaneous powders—one of which is, admittedly, "yogurt powder."

Meh. It works. The almonds taste enough like strawberry. Sonia thinks the balance of flavors is just about perfect. There's enough sweet strawberry taste to make these feel like a dessert but not so much that it overshadows the natural nuttiness of the almonds. There is a bit of that almond butter and jelly effect, which I expected of course, but I'm still not sure how I feel about it.

The beautiful wifey raved about these things from first bite. She says she could eat the whole bag by herself in a single day. In reality, I know she won't because she's disciplined like that. Fortunately, the bag is resealable.

$3.99 for the eight serving bag. Kosher. Eight and a half out of ten stars from Sonia for Trader Joe's Strawberry Yogurt Flavored Almonds, who would definitely repurchase. I'll go with eight out of ten. They're definitely satisfying and snackable, but I don't necessarily think they're a cut above all the other myriad nuts coated with sweet stuff out there from Trader Joe's or anywhere else.

Bottom line: 8.25 out of 10.
