Love ice cream and love the video. Kitchen, do you remember what lipstick you were wearing here? That color really suits you and the staying power seems fantastic?!
New Zealander here to explain the “oki doki” as best I can. It’s inspired by hokey pokey ice cream - vanilla swirled through with honeycomb candy. I’ve literally never heard honeycomb/hokeypokey described as sponge textured but now that I think of it, yeah it’s a sharp sponge texture… bone apple tea!
I’m so sorry I thought you were being sarcastic when you said hokey pokey but then you actually described it as I realized you were being serious 😅😂 Please excuse my ignorance 😅
I believe it’s called a “sponge candy” because the texture inside is similar in looks to that of a sponge. Or it could be that it’s a form of caramel that has baking soda whisked in to make it fluffy.
thank you kristin for acknowledging that vanilla is a really interesting and complex flavor, when you use actual vanilla and utilize it properly. i love vanilla. and yes, i'm boring, but vanilla isn't.
Our local ice cream place who make their own icecream have had 3 plain vanillas since opening with each having a different vanilla used. I was so confused the first time I saw them "wasting" three slots for vanilla but then I learned better. Watching this made me want to go get one of their vanillas.
The lemon ice cream is sooooo good though! It reminds me of a dessert my mom makes called Lemon Lush, with lemon pudding, cream cheese, cool whip, & shortbread crust. 🤤🤤
INSTRUCTIONS Preheat oven to 350 degrees. For the crust: In a food processor, pulse the flour and butter together until a dough forms. Add the pecans and mix until combined. If you don't have a good processor you can cut the butter into the flour using a pastry cutter or 2 forks and add the pecans after the butter is cut in. Press the mixture into bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Let crust cool. While the crust is baking prepare the remaining layers. For the Cream Cheese Layer: In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and lemon juice together until smooth. Spread evenly over the cooled crust. For the Pudding layer: In a separate bowl, mix the lemon pudding and milk together and beat for 3 to 5 minutes. Let the mixture set up slightly in the refrigerator if it's not thick yet. Once it has set up a little spread it over the cream cheese layer. For the Whipped Cream: Beat the heavy cream and powdered sugar until soft peaks form... (Or use cool whip for easiness) Spread over pudding mixture. Chill dessert for at least 3 hours until ready to serve *some do a no-bake version & just use golden oreos for the crust. Nuts can also be eliminated for allergy reasons. Enjoy! 😊
It never tastes quite right for me. Like, it taste like when chocolate has gone a bit bad and grey. Not inedible but not great. Ben and Jerry's are the only exception to the rule. Phish Food is amazing x
Gotta say when I hear the phrase "hazards of the job", I never imagine getting a brick of ice cream slammed down on one's finger, but here we are. 😅 Great video and the Okie Doki ice cream sounds really good.
Kristen: "why do they always make the boring flavors to non-dairy" Me, who is lactose intolerant and also has the most boring palate, i just want to eat a tub of vanilla or strawberry ice cream and watch a cheesy movie like the other girls 😭
I'm just here to validate Jen's liking of chocolate ice cream. Not everything has to be in the obvious 'salt fat acid heat' diagram. Its just nice AND THAT IS GOOD! I don't want my ice cream to be challenging. I don't want to think about the balance. I want nice ice cream. Which chocolate ice cream usually is. I have strong feelings about this apparently. If you insist, which no one did, chocolate is slightly acidic from the price of harvesting the beans. Salt is in the ice cream. Fat is in the cream. Heat? Tricky one. Heat meaning temperature is not useful here. But meaning spice? Sure chili in chocolate is tasty! But it isn't required. If vanilla is good, why can't chocolate be good as well? Like i said, strong feelings. 😁
I’ve had strong feeling about the salt, fat, acid, heat thing since I first hear about it. I don’t even think every DISH (savory dish, that is) needs all those things. Bringing desserts into the conversations is so weird.
Kinda late but chocolate does have heat! All chocolate is roasted which develops the flavour present in the cocoa beans from fermentation. It’s one of the most important steps in the development of chocolate flavour.
It’s out of season now. But hopefully it’ll come back next year. If you like banana try the next new seasonal ice cream the Banana Pudding ice cream. Super good. Tastes like banana cream pie in an ice cream. It just came so there should be some in stores.
@@annapruitt5546 mint is naturally green but not the crazy green. I’ve just found that the white mint chocolate chip has the strangest texture. It’s like a freezer burn
kitchen and jorn can you please compile all of the really great items from each video into some sort of list so we can easily know what to buy from tj's without having to watch all the vids back :')
if i lived in the states I would absolutely create a google spreadsheet with every item from every category. honestly i feel like someone out there probably has made something
Isn't speculoos the spread and speculaas the cookie? I'm german living with my dutch partner in the netherlands for 2 years now and people always correct me about it because I switch it up all the time 😅
@@rivenblake8220 🤣 I should clarify, too - I’m Dutch by heritage, but born and raised in the US. Like I said, I only know the cookies because my Oma always had them around, from the Dutch store. They come in different shapes. I liked the windmills. 😊
I am so glad you like mint chocolate flavored ice cream! I’m the only one in my family who likes it-more for me but I’d gladly share with you and whoever else likes it ♥️
We have a candy called Sponge Candy here in Buffalo/Western NY. I guess it’s best described as, like, a honeycomb toffee, but we cover it in chocolate and cut it into squares. It’s extremely popular!
In Canada you can buy that as a mass produced chocolate bar available wherever big brand chocolate bars are sold. They're called Crunchie bars. I believe they're by Cadbury. They're really good.
This is random, but my mom is from Fukuoka too! also I love that color block yellow white pleated dress -- so pretty!! I think the only TJ's ice cream I've gotten is the vanilla, mostly to go on pies. and this comment is all over the place.
In case nobody's mentioned it in the comments yet, Speculoos is a type of biscuit made in Belgium. It was made as an alternative to the Dutch Speculaas. In both countries it's quite popular. There's not only ice cream but also a sort of 'peanut butter spread' and other stuff made from Speculoos and/or Speculaas. ^^
Came here to say this! Also, speculoos (the Belgian, less spicy version of Dutch speculaas) is now branded in the US as Biscoff. Fun fact: the Latin word speculum (which means mirror) is actually where the name speculaas/speculoos comes from because traditionally the biscuits are shaped in moulds (that look like windmills, animals, people etc.) so the biscuits are a mirror image of the mould.
Omg mint chocolate chip is my absolute favorite flavor of ice cream ever and I think the green mint ice cream is the lesser version 😂. Tastes too much like food coloring/chemical and fake mint.
Y'all are so funny & awesome, Brie absolutely included! And fyi, your videos really help me when my anxiety gets high by making me laugh & forget my problems for a bit. So tysm for that. I know you've branched off a bit into trying Aldi things, & fun fact they're actually related to TJs, but I think it might be a complicated relationship. Anyhooo, I'm not sure if you have Lidl grocery stores there? I feel like you have to, if my little country section of the US does lol, but maybe you could try some of their stuff? Sadly, 😭 we don't have a TJs close enough to do regular shopping, but I'm definitely Lidl>Aldi. Just a thought!? Wishing you all a very happy pride too!!🌈 🤗 🥳💞
I absolutely love ice cream unfortunately it usually doesn't love me. I actually make homemade ice cream a lot. My most recent experiment was chocolate cherry ice cream. It was really good but I'll have to put the cherries in differently next time because unfortunately the blender almost completely obliterated the cherries.
I'm just lucky that I can watch this one without ever thinking of buying their ice cream. Tj's is 45 minutes from my home so there is no way ice cream would survive the trip back
Actually we have milk tea ice-cream with tapioca pearls in the Philippines and dude it's so good, I don't know if they sell it in america but I would most definitely love for you guys to try it! It's called Selecta Supreme wintermelon cream cheese milk tea ice cream, Selecta has different kinds of ice cream so there's alot of choice to choose from💙
Speculoos is biscoff! 😍 it’s heaven I love it sooooo much 😭😭 also can’t believe any of these ended up in the penalty box! 😂 I think even blah ice creams are good ice creams 😂 I’m yet to find an amazing coffee ice cream in the U.K. though they all taste of extremeeeeee sugar with a splash of watery left over coffee which sucks because coffee ice cream when done right is HEAVEN! Same with coconut I’m yet to find a good coconut ice cream too 😭 , preferably coconut milk based not water , coconut water is penalty box bad times a billion 😭
@@gracehawkes8901 omg really ??? Thank you so much I’ll head down this weekend to have a look!! I tried one from lidl I think it was and it was straight up sugar 😬😬 thanks lovely ! X
@@CaseyJayy92 yesss it’s amazing!! It’s called “cafe latte” I think. I found the lidl was pure sugar too but the tesco one is so strong coffee! You’re more than welcome lovely xx
Honeycomb! The reason crunchie bars are the best 😋 Apparently some people call it Hokey Pokey but personally I’ve never heard someone call it that here in the UK lol Maybe it’s an Aussie thing??
As an upstate NYer, we also make sponge candy - weirdly, you need a certain climate to do it. It's like a honeycomb-sugar-candy, which is generally chocolate coated. I can send you some from a local chocolate-maker if you'd like!
The Soy vanilla was also super gross to me and I have to be dairy free. My fav now is the Black Tea Boba Icecream 🤤 I’m not sure if it was available when you filmed but I loved the boba in the cream.
I don't usually like chocolate ice cream, but I really like the coconut milk chocolate ice cream (especially in the form of the mini ice cream cones). And the Cherry Dark Chocolate Chip Soy Ice cream is one of my favorite ice creams of all time!
Hands down agree with your assessments for the ones I've tried. I was SO EXCITED about both the coffee and the boba flavours and just tasted like disappointment!
Okay, as a New Zealander, Oki Doki, I can only think of Hokey Pokey, which is honeycomb, but idk wtf they're on about it being sponge textured or being NZ inspired lmao???
when i see green mint ice cream it makes me think of toothpaste and i don't want that mixed with chocolate, i dont like my ice cream tasting like toothpaste.
It's crazy that after all the tj taste tests they've had, they don't know what tj's darling flavor speculoos is. It was a huge trend a few years ago and tj's put it in EVERYTHING. PS - i'm bummed your store didn't have the dairy free chocolate w/cherry, that one is very good!
Ok me time me and two friends were talking about who would be what Neapolitan ice cream I was strawberry and then I asked if it was because I was the 🍓fruitiest🍓
As someone allergic to milk protein, I super appreciate that the non-dairy options are often initially focused on the basics, because SO many vegan options are very much not like ice cream in texture, if not downright terrible. So just finding a decent brand of non-dairy ice cream in plain ol vanilla I can add my own fun to is a dang miracle. I hope your tummies weren't too angry after this!
Spekulatius or Speculoos cookies taste pretty much like a pumpkin spice latte imo. But the "like being kissed by Christmas" description fits pretty well since they are generally sold around Christmas in Germany haha
I’m in agreement with Kitchen on the chocolate ice cream. I love chocolate and I love ice cream, but I have not had many chocolate ice cream experiences where the chocolate flavor actually tasted like chocolate. May just be because I usually go for cheap ice cream. I’m sure there’s some chocolate ice cream out there that’s super awesome but it has not made it into my ecosystem unfortunately
In the U.K. there used to be a good chocolate shop called thorntons that did a great one. But then I started making my own, even better and I can get it whenever I want. No contest. It does mean I buy less when I go out as I know there is something better in the freezer.
Would highly recommend trying the Talenti brand, which has nothing to do with Trader Joe's but it's gelato and it's my absolute favorite. Y'all deserve something in the "really great" category.
Kristin's dresses are always beautiful. Jens shirts she wear are always so cool that I don't think I could pull of those looks. Amazing women, with awesome authentic styles xx

I can't help myself around chocolate covered honeycomb.
I wonder if there is any way to ship ice cream to the states... 🤤🤔
I believe it’s called a “sponge candy” because the texture inside is similar in looks to that of a sponge. Or it could be that it’s a form of caramel that has baking soda whisked in to make it fluffy.

"Do you want to be right, or do you want to stay friends?" is absolutely how I'll be resolving arguments with friends from now on.
There's no excuse for 'meh' ice-cream. It should always be delicious.
Agreed!
Taste is subjective though 😂
You know what... yes
The sheer betrayal in Kitchen’s voice that chocolate is Jorn’s favorite ice cream was all I needed to hear this afternoon
“We are not shitting our way to the centre of the earth” while Keith is crying into his Baskin and Robins 🥲

I’m with Jen because I love Chocolate Ice-Cream. There are people who think it’s a strange concept like why would you think that?
It’s the only ice cream truly. But it has to be rich and deep. Some store bought ones are meh lol
That's my go-to flavour
Hard to find sometimes but I love Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Therapy 😁
It never tastes quite right for me. Like, it taste like when chocolate has gone a bit bad and grey. Not inedible but not great.

Chocolate icecream, like vanilla, has to be made right. The generic ones don't do it justice. But the one's that are made properly taste delicious

Yay I love the trader joes videos 💕 also what happened to jens arm love you guys xx
Okay, as a New Zealander, Oki Doki, I can only think of Hokey Pokey, which is honeycomb, but idk wtf they're on about it being sponge textured or being NZ inspired lmao???
when i see green mint ice cream it makes me think of toothpaste and i don't want that mixed with chocolate, i dont like my ice cream tasting like toothpaste.
It's crazy that after all the tj taste tests they've had, they don't know what tj's darling flavor speculoos is. It was a huge trend a few years ago and tj's put it in EVERYTHING. PS - i'm bummed your store didn't have the dairy free chocolate w/cherry, that one is very good!
Kristin this makeup look is amazing! What lip products did you use for this look?
Ok me time me and two friends were talking about who would be what Neapolitan ice cream I was strawberry and then I asked if it was because I was the 🍓fruitiest🍓
As someone allergic to milk protein, I super appreciate that the non-dairy options are often initially focused on the basics, because SO many vegan options are very much not like ice cream in texture, if not downright terrible. So just finding a decent brand of non-dairy ice cream in plain ol vanilla I can add my own fun to is a dang miracle. I hope your tummies weren't too angry after this!
I love the soy creamy vanilla with chocolate syrup when I want a simple dessert 😂
what happened to jen's arm?
i hope you heal fast!!
Oh I love Jorn's hair!! Fellow ADHD queer who buzzes it real short around the ears!
There is a peppermint stick ice cream over christmas. It's the best ever
Spekulatius or Speculoos cookies taste pretty much like a pumpkin spice latte imo. But the "like being kissed by Christmas" description fits pretty well since they are generally sold around Christmas in Germany haha
Quote of the Day: “Do you want to be right or do you want to stay friends?”
"The thinking person's Bean Blast" is yet another gem. I've never seen Jen so attentive, maybe bc its their fav dessert
I am sorry Jen what happened to your wrist hope your feels better soon Jen i love you ❤️
I don't know why you bother doing these tradwr joes things anymore when you seem so cranky about it
Why do we all know what play doh tastes like?
I’m in agreement with Kitchen on the chocolate ice cream. I love chocolate and I love ice cream, but I have not had many chocolate ice cream experiences where the chocolate flavor actually tasted like chocolate. May just be because I usually go for cheap ice cream. I’m sure there’s some chocolate ice cream out there that’s super awesome but it has not made it into my ecosystem unfortunately
In the U.K. there used to be a good chocolate shop called thorntons that did a great one. But then I started making my own, even better and I can get it whenever I want. No contest. It does mean I buy less when I go out as I know there is something better in the freezer.
Would highly recommend trying the Talenti brand, which has nothing to do with Trader Joe's but it's gelato and it's my absolute favorite. Y'all deserve something in the "really great" category.
Their raspberry sorbetto is top tier and being somebody that is recently discovered I am lactose intolerant it has been a godsend
I love ice cream! Great episode!!! 🍨🍦🥰
Kristin's dresses are always beautiful. Jens shirts she wear are always so cool that I don't think I could pull of those looks. Amazing women, with awesome authentic styles xx
Bean Blast is an extremely gay flavour, kudos.
“How dare you call me gay in my own house with my own wife!”
Lmao I always forget people don’t know what sponge candy is.
Can you a TJ novelty ice cream video, like their ice sandwiches or their strawberries covered in chocolate? 💜
The non-dairy Ben & Jerry’s are amazing and creative!!
That boba coffee ice cream I’ve tried and we threw it out. It’s penalty box freaking terrible.
I haven't tried the coffee one but i like the black tea one
Chocolate ice cream is *chef kiss*
Lmao how dare you call me gay in my own house with my own wife 😂😂😂
I’m personally obsessed with the coffee boba ice cream! And the black tea boba ice cream too
Damn, I am EARLY on this one, i dont think i've ever been THIS early for a K&J video. I love your try all videos !
When Kristen said “what is sponge candy?” I gasped and then remembered that not everyone grew up with it!
The boba ice creams are the best!!!!
I am always wary of a citrus and dairy mix so I am surprised the lemon ice cream was good.
