Trader Joe's is such a popular chain of American grocery stores. We just got one near my area, and everyone here is super excited about it. As it turns out, people are also really excited about a certain item that's coming back to Trader Joe's for the first time in a while. It's perfect for the fall season, too, so get ready for some fall fun and tasting.

Special Trader Joe's Fall Item is Back for the First Time in 3 Years

After three long years of it being away, the chain is offering it's beloved, delicious one-ingredient Organic Maple Butter once again. So, just how delicious is it? It's pure sugary bliss, and there is literally only one ingredient involved. "The contents of each jar are solely organic maple syrup that’s been reduced down to its purest essence, then whipped to a captivatingly creamy consistency," the chain explains. "It's fantastic on French toast, marvelous mixed into yogurt, and enchanting as an accompaniment to a cheese board (we particularly like it spread thin on a slice of sharp Cheddar)." I usually put honey on my pancakes, but I think I'll have to try using this Trader Joe's Organic Maple Butter instead.

I can tell people are extra excited about this one, because on the Trader Joe's Treasure Hunt page, they have a post completely dedicated to the return of the Organic Maple Butter. In the post, they write that they can't believe it and are so happy that it's coming back this season. "Organic maple syrup transformed into spreadable, creamy syrup spread with no added ingredients," they write, adding that it's perfect for your cheeseboard, waffles and toast." They also suggest to get some while you can, because supplies will be limited. The post has more than 500 likes.

Another item that I'm happy to have back for the season is Trader Joe's Vanilla Pumpkin Hand Soap & Hand Lotion. "Trader Joe’s Vanilla Pumpkin Scented Hand Soap, however, produces a lather that keeps hands sanitized and soft, thanks to the addition of moisturizing aloe leaf juice," Trader Joe's stated. "We've paired said soap with a matching Trader Joe’s Vanilla Pumpkin Scented Hand Lotion—crafted with hydrating botanicals like cacao extract, shea butter, and avocado oil to glove your hands in moisture and give them that much-needed, silky-soft finishing touch (pun totally intended)." I love vanilla anything, and if you add pumpkin, even better. Reach out to me with your favorite Trader Joe's fall items.
