Fall is about one thing: PUMPKIN STUFF. If it’s not pumpkin, I send it back. Trader Joe’s is basically a one-stop shop for all your pumpkin-flavored baking, drinking, and munching needs. But before you go loading your cart with these festive snacks, make sure that no animal-derived stuff is in there—nothing ruins the flavor of pumpkin spice like the remnants of suffering animals. Blegh.
If you don’t feel like reading labels, don’t worry—we LOVE reading them and we read all of them and made a list for you. Get pumped, because you’re about to find out everything you need to know about the vegan pumpkin-spice situation at Trader Joe’s!

Coffee wakes you up, but pumpkin-spice coffee makes you feel ALIVE!

A bowl of pumpkin cereal with some ice-cold almond milk? Bring me another!

Doggos ❤ pumpkin just as much as the next guy. Let them in on the action, too.
16. Actual Pumpkins
Have to give a shout to the glue holding all this together: pumpkins. Carve ’em, bake ’em, hollow ’em out, and stick them on your head—whatever you’re into. There’s no wrong way to use a pumpkin.
We have only a few months each year to enjoy the magic of pumpkins before it’s spring again and all the pumpkins turn back into pumpkins. Time is already running out, people—I’ll see you at TJ’s.
