Vegan Christmas Cookies Debut at Trader Joe’s 

Trader Joe’s debuted vegan “Twinkling Trees” cookies nationwide over the weekend. Each eight-ounce package ($3.99) comes with eight pine-tree shaped sugar cookies dusted with sugar crystals. During Halloween, the company debuted “Glimmering Pumpkins” vegan sugar cookies as a seasonal treat. In November, the grocery chain debuted a host of plant-based products, including Cocoa Peppermint almond milk-based creamer, cultured coconut milk Apple Cinnamon and Nog yogurts, and crabless Jackfruit Cakes. Starbucks is celebrating the holidays in a vegan-friendly way with the launch of its Juniper Latte—a pine-flavored beverage that can be ordered with plant-based milk.
