Trader Joe's Egg Bites Are The Starbucks Dupe You Should Have
By Stacie Adams
Thanks to Trader Joe’s, fans of Starbucks’ egg bites can enjoy a similar breakfast staple without leaving the comfort and convenience of their own homes.
The store's Cheddar Cheese & Uncured Bacon Egg Bites are fully cooked and can be prepared in the microwave in no time at all.
This store-bought product combines cage-free eggs, butter, and cottage cheese to achieve the perfect texture that supports the favored flavor combination of bacon and cheddar.
Some claim the Cheese, Spinach & Kale flavor is as tasty as, if not better than, Starbucks’ Bacon & Gruyère Egg Bites, while others say that the bites lack flavor.
Trader Joe’s bites have 16 grams of protein and 240 calories per serving, while Starbucks’ bites have 300 calories and a little more protein.
Additionally, Trader Joe's egg bites have only 8 grams of saturated fat per serving, compared to the 12 grams in Starbucks’.
