A Trader Joe’s shopper recently discovered that her attempt to unwind with a bottle of wine resulted in a surprising lack of effects after she consumed two hefty glasses, BroBible reports. The shopper, known as Kenz on TikTok, realized after the fact that the bottle she picked up contained a significantly lower alcohol content than she expected. In a video that has reached more than 17,600 views, Kenz expresses her frustration while wearing a fluffy pink robe. She explains that she was looking for a buzz to end her week, but she found herself feeling completely sober instead. After pouring her second glass, she decided to inspect the bottle more closely. “Do my eyes deceive me?” she exclaims, reading aloud the label “low ABV, made to sip and savor.” The situation led her to question what she had actually purchased. “I don’t know what to say,” she begins. “I’ve been drinking juice?!” She then notes that she plans to voice her complaints, though she is not sure who to target. “Someone will be hearing from me!” she says with a groan. “I don’t know if it’s going to be Trader or if it’s going to be Joe.” Viewers on TikTok had mixed reactions to the situation Some users poked fun at her experience, suggesting she essentially bought expensive juice. One commenter noted, “There’s Trader Joe’s and then there’s Traitor Joe’s,” while another joked, “Now we know the placebo effect doesn’t work with wine.” Other people were less sympathetic, with one user stating, “I don’t even think it’s that devastating.” Kenz admits in the video that her reaction is likely melodramatic, but the disappointment of not getting the expected buzz after a stressful week feels very real to her. It is helpful to understand what low-ABV actually means for shoppers. ABV stands for alcohol by volume, which indicates the percentage of a beverage that is alcohol. Traditional table wine often contains between 11% and 15% alcohol, according to NIAAA wine alcohol-content guidance. Low-ABV wines are created to provide a wine-drinking experience with less alcohol and, in some cases, fewer calories. While these options are popular with people watching their intake or those who enjoy the taste of wine without the buzz, they can be a surprise for someone expecting a standard level of alcohol. Trader Joe’s has carried these lower-alcohol options for a long time, and many shoppers appreciate them for their flavor or as a lower-calorie choice. It is important to note that these bottles are not always cheaper than traditional wine. They can cost the same or even more than the standard inexpensive options found at the store. Trader Joe’s even maintains a podcast to discuss the stories behind their various labels. This mix-up serves as a reminder to check the label before you head to the register. Whether you want a buzz or want to avoid one, the label contains the details you need to know.
