This rally comes a day after I told you Sprouts Farmers Market (which is also a great store) has been approved to build a new store at 4600 Street Road in Bensalem. It’s expected to open in the first half of 2027. I pointed out that when the question is asked what locals would like to see come to town, the answer is usually Trader Joe’s.
Products at the trendy, unique, specialty grocery store are often featured on Instagram as the items you need to have in your life. Trader Joe’s really does have the best snacks and desserts, in my opinion.

I finally got my hands of the viral Cookie Dough Ice Cream Bites, and yes, they are as good as they sound. Oh, and that’s the All Mixed Up ice cream next to it, which my husband loves. This is really a picture of the inside of my freezer. Ha ha.
C’mon, Bensalem. Get this going. I can’t wait to see if you can do it. You’ll love Trader Joe’s. Good luck.
