Make Reviewing Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Products Your Job — Here’s How

Fall is in the air, and so is the wonderful aroma of pumpkin! If you’re like me and are obsessed with all things pumpkin, you would likely be willing to taste-test anything that features the delicious fall gourd, right? Well, you are in luck because FinanceBuzz has put together a wonderful (and yummy) opportunity to become a Pumpkin Spice Pundit, a perfect side hustle for anyone who loves fall and all of its flavors. “What is a Pumpkin Spice Pundit?”, you may ask. Well, allow me to fill you in on this exciting opportunity. Specifically, if you’re a Trader Joe’s pumpkin lover, your dream job has arrived. 

How do I get paid to review Trader Joe’s pumpkin products?

Inspired by their love for Trader Joe’s items, FinanceBuzz will be choosing one candidate to become their Pumpkin Spice Pundit. A Pumpkin Spice Pundit is the person who will be taste-testing and evaluating all of the fall-inspired food items from Trader Joe’s, which includes a line of delectable food and drinks such as pumpkin waffles and pumpkin-spiced ginger brew. The Pumpkin Spice Pundit will be responsible for providing accurate feedback and recommendations for the customers of Trader Joe’s. With this in mind, it’ll help customers know what’s worth the splurge. Sounds great, right?

The chosen candidate will not only be able to taste-test the products, but they will get paid $1,000 for completing the reviews. Along with this, the candidate will be given a Trader Joe’s gift card worth $500 to fund the fall food shopping spree. With the given gift card, you must be able to live near a Trader Joe’s in order to be able to taste test the fall food items. To complete the assignment, you must photograph each item, rate the food based on certain criteria, and write a brief description based on your experience. 

Feeling hungry yet? If you’re interested in becoming the Pumpkin Spice Pundit for FinanceBuzz, applications are now open and are due by September 10 at 11:59 P.M. ET. If you are selected as the candidate, you will be contacted via email. You will then have until October 6 to complete the assignment and submit your rankings. So, what are you waiting for? Start filling out that application, my pumpkin spice lovers!

When are Trader Joe’s pumpkin products hitting store shelves?

According to @traderjoesobsessed on Instagram, September 5 is the expected date. Their post not only highlights the arrival of fall items but also mini canvas tote bags and mini cooler bags.

What fall products can we expect?

Though not on the shelves just yet, last year’s fall products are still on the Trader Joe’s website. Here’s what we’re hoping returns to shelves this year.

Pumpkin Bread & Muffin Mix

As the temperatures begin to fall, there’s no better way to start your day than with a warm, comforting pumpkin breakfast. Whether you choose pumpkin bread or muffins, this mix is bursting with flavor. The perfect balance of cinnamon and nutmeg adds a cozy spice to every bite, making each mouthful deliciously satisfying. Don’t miss out on this treat and look for the orange box in the baking aisle.

Honey Roasted Pumpkin Ravioli 

There’s nothing more cute or aesthetically pleasing for a fall date night than cooking honey-roasted pumpkin ravioli. Not only is it easy to make, but this dish also offers a delicious twist on a classic fall dinner. The ravioli combines the rich flavors of honey, brown sugar, molasses, and cheese, creating a sweet and savory blend that’s truly irresistible. Paired with a fresh salad, it makes for a perfectly balanced and memorable meal.
