When Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager are roaming the aisles of Trader Joe’s, they make a beeline for four of their favorites.

   

In the latest issue of People magazine, Hoda revealed her “last obsession”: Trader Joe’s Ice Cream Bon Bons.

“At the end of dinner, my kids say, ‘Can I have our chocolate round thing?’ There’s a tray of them, and last night I just started popping them. I was like, ‘This is what heaven is.’”

Back in April, the TODAY co-hosts shared their TJ’s faves after Jenna noted that all her daughter Mila wants for her 10th birthday this week are dumplings from the grocery chain.

“Have you ever had the dumplings from Trader Joe’s?” Jenna asked. “Aren’t they so good? You have to get the dumplings.”

Jenna is referring to the steamed pork and ginger soup dumplings that are filled with hot soup and some ginger for an extra kick. And yes, she’s exactly right about craving them.

Aside from the bon bons, Hoda has more Trader Joe’s products she’s passionate about.

“Wait, the crunchy tilapia at Trader Joe’s is to die for,” Hoda said, referring to the Panko Breaded Tilapia. “You air-fry it for 15 minutes and when you cut into it, it’s like (crunching sound).”

“Like a fish stick,” Jenna said.

“But like a piece like a piece of fish, not the stick,” Hoda clarified.

The two then brought up a Trader Joe’s classic.

“Did you see the chocolate bananas, which I know you make yourself, but you can also buy them frozen,” Jenna said, referring to the chain’s famous Gone Bananas! — frozen dark chocolate-covered banana slices.
