Awards season is here! And no, we're not talking about the red carpet. Instead, we're looking to the hallowed halls of our favorite grocery stores. Because, in true Ree Drummond fashion, perhaps our most anticipated awards actually revolve around, well, food! Specifically, Trader Joe's.

For the 15th year, supermarket chain Trader Joe's has released its Customer Choice Awards, which spotlights the products that loyal shoppers love the most. The results are determined by votes across various categories including best appetizer, breakfast, dinner, dessert, and drink! And considering Trader Joe's releases new and exciting products every week, deciding on a favorite is no easy feat—and proves that the chosen champions are as mouth-watering as they come. Literally.

Before we present the winners, we have to note that some expected fan favorite products didn't actually make this year's list. That's because items that have topped the chart for many years—like Mandarin Orange Chicken—have now been taken out of the running and instead placed in the separate and permanent Trader Joe's Product Hall of Fame. It's only fair to give some other products their chance at stardom, right? Right! And now... let's see what they are! Your favorite TJ's snack might just have a win in the bag... and will soon be in your grocery bag, too!
