Your Shopping List for June 13, 2025!

Is it me or is it crazy that the year is more than half over already? But hey, the disorientingly precipitous passage of time has its upsides. With every new month come fun, new things at the grocery store. Whether you shop at Aldi, Trader Joe's, or Costco, each month we put together handy little lists of the best stuff to buy.

At Aldi, we're scoping out frozen ahi tuna steaks, a gigantic lemon cookie, and mocktails for your booze-free BBQs. At Trader Joe's, we can't wait to try a fruity new guac and cookies that taste like a root beer float. And at Costco, we're stocking up on a backyard grill-out staple that's already Sporked-approved.

"I took one bite of this Dubai chocolate bar and immediately understood the craze. The pistachio flavor is delicately savory and nutty. And the phyllo shreds are truly crispy. I dream about this chocolate bar."

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new number one best frozen fish fillets brand—and it’s a generic store brand at that."

Watch Jordan, Gwynedd & Justine taste ice cream sandwiches!

"Goose Island Juicy Beer Hug is packed full of tropical fruit flavor. You get a bit of pineapple, a hint of mango, and some zippy, bitter hops flavors. This stuff is delicious and, at 9.9% ABV, it’s dangerous—in a good way."

"Carbone sauces aren't cheap‚ so you want to pick the best one. Their marina is great, but we found something even better."
