Trader Joe's Organic Tart Cherry Fruit Spread

Remember that Red Tart Cherry Juice? Didn't you ever wanna just dunk your toast in that stuff to give it that sweet-tart cherry flavor? I know I did. But then I'd reconsider after contemplating how soggy my toast would get.

Now I can have that sweet-tart cherry flavor on my toast without the wet mess with Trader Joe's Organic Tart Cherry Fruit Spread. Dang this stuff is good. It's sweet and tart and very thick.

It's not chunky, however. There aren't any cherry pieces in the spread. It's quite smooth. It works that way. It coats everything you spread it on with a dense layer of sour cherry goodness.

We tried it on those Liège waffles we reviewed earlier in the week, and it was scrumptious. We got the whole thing on camera and you can watch us try it for the first time. Since then, we've had it on regular toast and it's superb that way, too. Sonia likes to have it on bread alongside sunflower butter almost like peanut butter and jelly. I was skeptical at first, but I must admit, it's a weirdly good combo.

The ingredients list is nice and short. We're talking top-shelf in terms of quality. Add this one to the long list of winning condiments and sauces we've found at TJ's over the last 15 years.

$4.29 for the 15 oz jar. Certified organic. Would definitely buy again. I'll give Trader Joe's Organic Tart Cherry Fruit Spread eight and a half out of ten stars. Sonia will go with nine out of ten stars.

Bottom line: 8.75 out of 10.
