The other day I was at Trader Joe’s and I got the idea to start a series called “The Krocks Try…” where we test out random things for you guys! On the first episode, we tried out three different fruit products.

Watch the video to see what we thought, and let us know in the comments if there’s anything you want us to try out in a future episode!

Very Cherry Plums

Up first, I picked up a one pound box of these beautiful “Very Cherry Plums” for $3.49. The box describes them as “part cherry” and “part plum.”

I don’t have a ton of experience with plums, but Brian and I were both very pleasantly surprised with these! They are very sweet and you can taste a hint of cherry. Brian especially liked these and I’m pretty sure he’s already finished off the entire box. 🙂

Rambutan

Up next, I just had to try this crazy looking fruit called Rambutan. I paid $4.99 for a box of 12.

For our opinion on this one, I recommend just watching the video… LOL! It was an interesting experience to say the least. When you cut into these, they have an almost translucent interior similar to the inside of a grape.

Watermelon Jerky

I was super excited to finally try out Trader Joe’s Watermelon Jerky! I heard about it last year, but never found it at our local stores. I paid $3.69 for a 2oz bag of the organic jerky.

I was blown away by this one. I had no idea what to expect, but it packed a ton of flavor. It is almost TOO sweet, even for me! A little goes a long way. I think it’s something everyone should try once!

Watch the video here and don’t forget to comment and let us know what we should try out next time!
