TJ's Candy Cane JoJo's?

Any sightings yet this year? Haven't been in our local one for a couple weeks now and am wondering if they arrived yet and if it's time to go and stock up??

Was just at the TJ in San Gabriel (Southern Cal) and they've got a big display of them!

Oh thanks! I figured they might be in by now...going to stop on my way home from work!

Yippee!!

Anyone else addicted to these delightful little things last year??

I bought 2 boxes the other day because everyone raves about it on CH. After a bite, I failed to realize what the commotion was all about.

Really? I don't even like sandwich cookies normally but at least last year these were so intensely pepperminty and ahd those crunchy pieces of cane. 2 of these in the evening with our coffee and we were in heaven...until they ran out of stock!

I hope they haven't changed them...

Didn't get by TJ's after work today...planning to look on my way in tomorrow!

I bought one box due to the hype on here, and I also thought they were "meh". They're minty Oreos, nothing really special to me. I was much more impressed by Bouchon Bakery's "TKO" (Thomas Keller Oreo), although I definitely can't get those at Trader Joe's...

C'mon now...comparing a commercially made widely distributed cookie to something from Bouchon Bakery?

I agree, it's not really a fair comparison, but when I was evaluating the JoJos I was comparing them to regular Oreos, and they were just "meh" to me; but when I ate the TKO, it was amazing compared to regular Oreos. So really, I was comparing both variations to the standard (Oreos), not to each other, although maybe I should have made that more clear in my first post. But if you like JoJos and happen to find yourself in Yountville, definitely try a TKO!
