3w ago00:26:28Tap to summarizeThe Hoes have hit the road for a little summer review retreat, and to kick things off, they're diving into a big bowl of mystery meat...balls. While they try to win the meatball lottery, sampling all three of Trader Joe's fresh chicken meatballs, they also make some truly troublesome food confessions and create an entire imaginary meat universe with a highly paid Women's Meatball Basketball Association (WMBA) and protein-maxxing leprechauns.

Jun 100:30:10Tap to summarizeThis week, the Hoes are taking a quick lunch break, but this lunch may very well break them. Katie and Evie are topping these sandwiches with some Trader No’s, the first ranking predictions, and an impassioned spit take.

Transcribe →Readin' & Eatin': Dungeon Crawler Carl
May 1800:27:22Tap to summarizeWe’ve got a special treat for you this week, Hoes: A peek at the exclusive episodes our Patrons get each month in our Readin’ & Eatin’ series, where we pair Trader Joe's snacks with our latest literary obsession.In this episode, we're descending into the chaotic, explosive, and high-stakes world of Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman. Is this essentially an absurdly violent intergalactic game show where a guy in boxer shorts and his ex-girlfriend’s prize-winning cat fight for survival? Yes. Did the incredible voice work of narrator Jeff Hays rock our worlds and alter us on nearly a cellular level? Also, yes.Here's the gist: Navigating the bizarre alien floors, lethal traps, and the sheer, unhinged madness of the dungeon with Carl and Princess Donut is as precarious as trying to maneuver your cart past the sample station on a Sunday morning. It’s a story of survival, rebellion, the heavy cost of entertainment, and how much you can really trust a sarcastic AI with a foot fetish. Obviously, it's best consumed with snacks that can handle the emotional weight.We’re pairing this sci-fi litRPG madness with a trio of Trader Joe's finds you may want to keep at-the-ready in your inventory.In the Cart:Garlic Fish ChipsRaspberry Yogurt Candy ClustersSweet & Sour Gummy Worms CandiesWant access to all of the Readin’ & Eatin’ episodes, first dibs at merch, and more?

Transcribe →Paprika Prapika
May 1100:28:11Tap to summarizeWhile the Hoes are normally pretty cheesy, this week they have reason to be extra sharp. Katie and Evie are slicing into four new(ish) new options from the cheese case, with unexpected results. In addition to the Multigrain Crackers, they’re pairing these dairy delights with pondering how Katie escaped Twilight, our new favorite alias, and the complete mystery of why Evie can’t say “paprika.” In the cart: The “OG” (Old Goat) Aged Goat CheeseBrie Cheese Flavored SpreadTaco Seasoned Gouda CheeseSmoked Cheddar Cheese with Paprika• Multigrain Crackers

May 400:27:01Tap to summarizeThe Hoes are back on the baked goods and expectations are all over the place. From the neon shortbread to the tea time blondies, it’s a shelf-stable rollercoaster of sweet, sweet carbs.In the cart:Strawberry Brioche Style Liège WafflesLemon Flower CookiesEarl Grey Blondie Bars
Transcribe →Wake and Break
Apr 2700:25:45Tap to summarizeTime is a construct, so the Hoes are digging into breakfast for dinner this week. But why stop at challenging the self-inflicted limitations of time? Katie and Evie also question what can realistically (and safely) be car food, if humans really need silverware, and how long is too long in the microwave. In the cart: Breakfast Bowl Tortilla Española Spicy Spuds• Bubble Waffles
