Grocery shopping is an art, and no two people tackle the task in the exact same way.
Some like to casually peruse every aisle while others prefer to zoom in and out in record time.
However, there’s something most shoppers can agree on: we harborstrong allegiances to particular grocery stores.

These preferences are usually based on location, price point, product diversity, and quality.

In particular, the line’s lavish-soundingSea Salt Caramel Trufflevariety.

It’s a blissful blend of salty vanilla scoops mixed with rich caramel sauce and bite-sized chocolate-covered caramel truffles.
Velvety smooth and addicting, it’s perfect for an evening of indulgence.
It’s lightly sweet, salty, and unbelievably buttery.

At a price of $19.99 per pound, it’s not a product on my weekly shopping list.
But Evolution Fresh changes the game.
Yet they still manage to taste unbelievably fresh and flavorful.

The spread comes in standard creamy or a crunchy variety if you’re so inclined.
Both cost $3.99 which happens to be the same price as the Trader Joe’s iteration.
The one I have found to be most obsession-worthy, though, is theMushroom Ravioli.

Simple Truth Organic Pineapple Habanero Salsa
The Simple Truth brand is another Kroger exclusive.
There are plenty of items to love in this lineup.
My top pick, though, has to be thePineapple Habanero Salsa.

It’s great for some tortilla chips and dip action.
I’ve even served it on top of grilled chicken breasts as a refreshing sauce.
It comes at $2.99 per jarpretty reasonable for an all-organic product if you ask me.

One that has swiftly become a quick and easy go-to is theTeriyaki Atlantic Salmon.
It comes pre-seasoned and sauced with a blend of sesame oil, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic.
The salmon always comes out the perfect shade of pink with a flakey and never mushy texture.

The two-packs g for a price of $7.99 but there’s almost always a deal to be had.
There’s just something about those pillowy little dumplings that’s so distinctive and comforting.
Of course, few places do the Italian dish justice.

But I love the ease and meal prep simplicity thisPrivate Selection productprovides.
I would recommend sticking closer to two, however, to avoid that overly soft and sticky texture.
Both flavors come in packs of four for $6.49.

But, I have to give the Simple Truth brand props.
TheLemon Gingerwith zero sugar is one of the best flavors from the Kroger brand.
Grocery store brands have inevitably caught on to this red-hot trend as well.

A crispy sourdough-style thin crust acts as the pizza’s base that gets coated in an olive oil sauce.
Then, you have pepperoni with jalapeno and multiple cheeses including cheddar, mozzarella, and feta.
Dalmatia Fig Spread
No artisan cheese board is complete without fruity dips for pairing.

It’s filling, not overly salty, and hits the spot every single timeespecially on a cold day.
At $5.49 a jar, it’s pricier than other store-bought canned soups.
But so worth the splurge.

If you ever come across the latter, definitely give them a try.
Most bags usually sell at just over $3 a pop.
They don’t taste anything like a hunk of stale cardboarda problem some other organic snacks tend to have.

The 5.3-ounce boxes are both priced at $4.79.
The rice choice, however, contains mushrooms, while the noodles packet opts for green peppers.
All you have to do is microwave the bag’s contents or cook it quickly in a skillet.

Add in your favorite sauce and protein like chicken or beef, and you have a balanced meal.
packed among the boxes of Kraft and Velveeta.
However, an aged white cheddar cheese sauce is also thrown into the mix because why not?

Wymans Mango Berry Frozen Fruit
Like pizza, frozen fruit is another freezer essential.
The Wyman’s brand does frozen fruit best.
I usually opt for theMango Berrycombo bags at Kroger.

Although, you might’t go wrong with any of the available varieties.
Some households eat Orville Redenbacher’s and nothing else, while others default to Act II or PopSecret.
It may just be a game-changer.

And there’s nothing more convenient than the pre-made, plant-based smoothie cubes from Evive.
You don’t even need a blender for these colorful blocks.

But, trust me, you need someKroger chocolate milkin your life.
