Trader Joe’s Goat Milk Brie

Average Price: $2.49*
Verdict: Buy It

This cheese was named one of the top ten “greatest cheeses” to buy at Trader Joe’s by Cooking Light magazine. The cheese isn’t prohibitively costly, with a 4.4-ounce wedge costing $2.49. The Trader Joe’s Goat Milk Brie was described as “tangy, somewhat sweet, and very milk[y]” by the Kitchen’s taste-testers. Another food blogger said that you should consume it immediately rather than storing it in your refrigerator for a month. Goat cheese (and brie) are both acquired tastes, but brie enthusiasts will be pleased with the range available at Trader Joe’s, especially considering the price. In addition to goat milk cheese, Trader Joe’s also carries goat milk in a variety of flavors.

Trader Joe’s Shepherd’s Pie

Average Price: $3.99*
Verdict: Skip It

The Shepherd’s Pie received a rating of 2.8/5 on a Trader Joe’s fan website, indicating that it was a fairly ordinary shepherd’s pie. In the words of another food blogger, the Shepherd’s Pie was “a blatant advertising” for Trader Joe’s spicy sauce, because it was only good when served with the condiment. On Amazon, the Shepherd’s Pie from the brand has a rating of 2/5 stars. There isn’t anything particularly remarkable about it; it has the standard beef, vegetables, gravy, and potatoes ingredients. For whatever reason, the taste isn’t particularly appealing to most individuals. Perhaps the reviews would be more positive if the product did not come in a frozen container. In any case, the final line is that you might want to pass on this one altogether.
