An Almondina Giveaway - 3 cases, 3 winners!
A few months ago we reviewed Almondina cookies and gave away a few cases of Almondina in several varieties. It was also a great way to celebrate Almondina's new flavor, Chocolate Cherry, which had just landed at Trader Joe's. Have you tried them? These delicious, crunchy cookies were such a hit and the giveaway was so successful that Almondina is generously sponsoring another one! Hooray!THREE lucky random winners will each get a 12-pack sampler case of Almondina cookies.
How to enter (do one, or do all three to increase your chances of winning):
* Comment (once) below this blog post.
* Comment on our Facebook page under the Almondina post.
* Tweet about it (reply to @cookingwithTJ so we can track it).
Deadline: Enter by Midnight PST Friday September 24, 2010. Winners will be contacted and winners will announced on the blog, twitter, and facebook. US residents only please! Good luck! As before, we are not paid to review or give away Almondina products - we do it because we simply love them!
To see the many Almondina flavors, check out their website. Original and Chocolate Cherry are at Trader Joe's.







I have tried the chocolate cherry Almondina cookies and they are delicious! I will be moving to Florida in the next few weeks where they don't have a Trader Joe's, so winning these would give me a small taste of what I'm missing!
Excellent!!!
I would love to try these cookies ... have not tried them yet but they look delicious!
Cherry, Chocolate and Almonds - HOW can you go wrong!
Pick me! Pick me! I have to drive five hours to get to the closest TJ's, which I do sometimes. Getting a care package from you would make my day. Besides, these sound amazing. Yum!
I have not tried these, but I will next time I am in TJ's! Which should be in the next 24 hours.
I would love to be a lucky winner
I love them!
I'm so glad you keep posting such yummy items! It give's me yet another reason to head to Joe's!
Oh boy!
I hope I am a lucky winner too!
Thank you.
The chocolate cherry are the best!!!
Almondina cookies...? Yum!
These would be sooo yummy with a cuppa Trader Joe's coffee!!!
Ah, Almondia is a fav in our house! It is one of the cookies that my daughter can eat, despite food allergies!
Have not tried these cookies, (yet) but they sound very tasty
Mmmm, those cookies look so good! I would love to try them (hint, hint)...
Delicious, I love biscotti with my coffee!

I've been wanting to try these and can't wait to!
Pick me please., thx
Yummy! We love Almondinas!
These remind me (from the photo) of biscotti, which I really enjoy. I rarely have them since I'm the only one in my home who likes them. These would be fun to have with tea when I invite new neighbors over.
I haven't tried this yet, but they look delicious. Thanks for sponsoring the giveaway!
Perhaps I shouldn't read food giveaways while I'm hungry. I'm ready to run out to TJ's and pick up some biscotti pronto.
i love almondina!
I think I can finish this post... before... salivating... mouth... pushes... me... to... TJs... there. 'K bye.
Almonds - how can you go wrong!
The cookies look yummy!
Haven't tried the new chocolate cherry, but love the originals. They feel like an indulgence - but are about as good for you as cookies get!
These look wonderful! A perfect addition to the lunchbox!
I love almondina products and this one is equally as good
I can't wait to try these!
YUMMY!
I haven't tried these yet, but I want to! The chocolate cherry flavor sounds delicious!
I didn't even know what an almondina was when I saw the FB page saying there was a giveaway..now that I know it's a cookie...oh DO CHOOSE ME!!!
I love Almondina.
Cool winter morning, cup of Trader Joe's Chai, and an Almondina cookie - or two! A great way to enjoy the changing season.
These are yummy!
I love the chocolate cherry version!
YUMMY, YUMMY, YUMMY FOR MY TUMMY, TUMMY, TUMMY!!
Give.To. Me. Please. Now. Thank you.
haven't tried the new flavor, but love all the others. I have at one in my cupboard at all times.
Awesome!
I've been wanting to try these!
Yum! These are soooo delicious!
No TJ's here, waaaaaahhh!!!
Love them! Wish we had a TJs in our small town, but we get to Seattle enough throughout the year and we're sure to stop.
I hope I'm lucky!!
I buy two packages every time I go to TJ's. And I go at least once a week. And my kids aren't allowed to have any.
Bon appetit!
The chocolate cherry sounds devine! I'll have to put that on my next TJ's shopping list.
I would share these with the teacher's lounge at my son's amazing school.
LOVE the chocolate cherry. It's my new favorite treat when I need a little something sweet!
Yum! love these - the best with some tea!
Oh my gosh! Who doesn't like chocolate and cherries? Then put them together?!
If I win, I will share, I promise!
Oh, how wonderful! I would love to sample the varieties of these! I've maybe only ever tried one!
Yum... I am thinking these and a cup of coffee would make a perfect breakfast!
I love the Original Almondina; and, talk about power of suggestion, I just had to go eat some (made a trip to TJ's up in Corvallis on Sunday). I'm looking forward to trying the new AlmonDuo--what could be better than pistachios & almonds! Yummy! What first brought me to your site was your previous contest with an Almondina prize. Unfortunately, I didn't win. Maybe my luck will be better this time.

My go-to guilt free snack
These would be my go-to guilt free snack, except I would end up eating the whole package, thereby returning to guilt.
I love the raisin ones, they're chewy and crunchy at the same time.
Well how can you go wrong with anything from Trader Joe's?? Almondina cookies? Bring 'em on!
I love Almondina, especially chocolate flavor!
Almondina is one of my favorite snacks!! I would absolutely LOVE to win this. I've only had the opportunity to try the original version as well as the chocolate cherry (my absolute favorite!) I would love to try the other varieties!
Mmm. I love these! Great giveaway.

I've never tried these but they resemble the Italian Biscotti. I'll give them a go with some Vin Santo dessert wine this Fall.

I haven't tried them yet! They look scrumptious!
they sound yummy
I love biscotti, but sometimes they're difficult to eat. TJs almondina cooking are much better because they've got the same crunchy texture, but thin like a cookie. Along with all the nuts and other goodies, Almondina cookies are perfect.
I've never tried them, but would like to!
I love these! Pick me!!!
I would love to try these. Thank you for your great blog!
I would love to try Almondina!
Awesome flavor-chocolate cherry...nothing better!
My favorite cookie at Trader Joes!
It would be great to win. Almondina cookies are so good.
Please pass the cookies. To me!!!!!!!
Looks like a perfect reason to bring me back to Trader Joes. Chocolate/Cherry?? Oh my goodness, that so has my name written all over it!!
these are excellent, and not only because they are my daughter's favorite
Love these!- the perfect treat!
I like Trader Joes and their products. These sound so delicious. I would love to win a sample pack.
My alltime, absolute favorite cookie/biscuit. Please bring Trader Joe's to Houston area...
