Across 564 stores in the U.S., Trader Joe’s shoppers seem to be refining their pallets. Several of the latest winners of the store’s annual product awards are unique treats, from goat cheese to kimbap.

“Like skilled athletes, certain products have risen once again to champion status, while others have entered the winners’ circle for the very first time ,” the company said in a Jan. 22 press release.

The “winners’ circle” refers to the Trader Joe’s Product Hall of Fame . It celebrates products that consistently earn recognition as customers’ favorite products. For example, Trader Joe’s Mandarin Orange Chicken (introduced in 2004) was inducted into the hall of fame in 2023 for winning favorite overall and best entree.
