Popsugar Living Frozen Food Trader Joe's Philly Cheesesteak Bao Buns Trader Joe's Has New Philly Cheesesteak Bao Buns, Which Might Be So Bad They're Good 24 October 2019 by Erin Cullum View this post on Instagram A post shared by Trader Joe’s Spokane (@traderjoesspokane) on Oct 23, 2019 at 12:15pm PDT You really never know what to expect when browsing Trader Joe's frozen food section, but I wouldn't have predicted Philly Cheesesteak Bao Buns. According to eagle-eyed shoppers, however, that's one of the newest options at the beloved affordable grocery store. The steamed (and frozen) bao looks like a relatively standard bun on the package, but the inside is filled with shredded beef, American cheese, onions, red bell peppers, green bell peppers, and garlic powder. Quite sacrilege, sure, but delicious? Reddit user nyxmaris thinks so. As one of the first people to spot this new item, the Redditor took one for the team by including a review in a buzzy thread that includes a photo of the finished product. After describing them as having "really good flavour" and "good, not sticky" dough, this Florida-based Trader Joe's shopper would definitely buy the Philly-inspired buns again. Trader Joe's is home to popular frozen xiao long bao (soup dumplings) and Chinese-style pork buns with sweet and savory barbecued pork, but throwing American cheese and beef into the mix isn't something we've seen in . . . any grocery store. The comment debates have already begun, so take a look at more evidence of Philly Cheesesteak Bao Buns ($3.49), and decide if they deserve a spot in your red cart.
