From What’s Good at Trader Joe’s 2018
“These clusters are definitely unique. I keep wanting to call them crackers, because that’s what they feel and taste like – wafer-y, thin, airy, crispy crackers. In a way, similiar to a couple layers of filo dough baking together. Except, it’s not flour and eggs and whatnot – it’s just coconut. I’ve had dried coconut before, but none was think this – maybe I’m sheltered or naive, but for me at least it’s a first. The clusters are irresistably crispy, and as a cool bonus, after a few chomps it’s almost as if a little coconut oil gets extruded. That may not be accurate, but there’s certainly an added coconutty presence that seems to ooze out. May sound weird, but nah – and it’s delicious.
Black and white sesame seeds add a small textural varient and kinda help turn the nature of this snack into a more savory-type deal. Kinda odd bedfellows, sesame seeds and coconut, but it works. There’s also apparently some Himalayan salt added, but honestly I don’t detect any of it, so it’s probably fairly negligible.
Eat them straight, put on a salad, put on some ice cream, but don’t do salad and ice cream at the same time. That wouldn’t work. These crispers are light and snacky enough that both Sandy and I could the whole bag, which probably isn’t advisable even if it’s coconut. At about $2 for the bag, these are repeat buy worthy for sure. We’ll be on them for sure.”
