Many people will tell you that when you want to find a new fun, funky, and delicious food item, one of the best places to go is Trader Joe’s. In addition to quirky seasonings and ingenious ice cream flavors, this beloved grocery store frequently stocks shelves with limited-time, seasonal items.

And we think we speak for everyone when we say no one does pumpkin spice season quite like them (except maybe Starbucks). Every year, people look forward to the return of a range of pumpkin spice treats at TJ’s. Now, the time has finally come. On Reddit, fans are rejoicing over the comeback of one particular item: Pumpkin Cream Cheese Spread.

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Spread

Trader Joe’s is no stranger to inventive, delicious spreads. From the discontinued chocolate hummus whose departure left fans in shambles to vegan cheeses, guacs, and more, there’s always a fun new dip to try—and they’re frequently delicious. TJ’s Pumpkin Cream Cheese Spread is no exception.

This creamy, sweet spread is exactly what it sounds like: spreadable pumpkin cream cheese. Whether you’re smearing it on a bagel, dipping a snack in it, or simply licking it off a spoon (Hey, we won’t judge!), this spread is sure to please pumpkin lovers everywhere. Unfortunately, it only sticks around for a limited time each fall. But now, it’s back in stores.

@traderjoeshungry, an Instagram account dedicated to sharing new and returning items, recently shared the good news. “SHE’S BACK!” she wrote.

Fans flooded the comment section with excitement. “Legit the best,” one follower wrote, complete with heart eyes.

“Omg yum,” another comment reads.

On Reddit, fans have similar reactions. “It’s happening!” a shopper wrote with a screencap of @traderjoeshungry’s post.

One user joked about their love for the cream cheese: “I’m about to become so insufferable.”

People also shared tips for how to enjoy the Pumpkin Cream Cheese Spread. Many suggested graham dipping crackers in it, while some recommended baking cheesecake. Others said they love it on waffles, pancakes, toast, and, of course, bagels.

But one person commented said what we were all thinking: “Spoon.” Couldn’t have said it better ourselves.

So, are you going to run to the nearest Trader Joe’s with your fingers crossed that they have this cream cheese in stock? Or are you overwhelmed with all the pumpkin spice items in stores and on menus? Let us know in the comments!
