I find that, basically, TJs can do no wrong. The only thing I've gotten there that I didn't like is the TJs brand of meatless chicken nuggets...they're a little, shall we say, nazzztay.


ewww, they're like styrofoam covered in sawdust! barf

though morningstar farms makes spicy meatless chicken nuggets that are TO DIE FOR. nod

i don't like TJ's instant oatmeal either. bland city.

Have you tried the maple brown sugar? It's deelish. I throw a handful of dried cranberries and walnuts in the regular and it's GREAT!

Gonna go buy tea and any other stuff you can recommend in the next 5 minutes!

I'd like some Trader Joes ginger snaps with three types of ginger please and some of those fabulous organic chocolate truffles (seasonal thankfully because I'd eat them all year) and they currently have premium TJ walnut halves that are sublime.


those ginger snaps are faboo. drool

the maple brown sugar is the kind i tried - didn't care for it! i love their joe-o's cereal, though. the mango flavor was a trip.

I like the peanut butter Puffins...the boxes that they sell at TJs are a lot bigger than the grocery store and they're much less expensive biggrin

I am so glad that people are digging the trader joes! I ate a packet of trader joes Punjab Curry over some brown rice for dinner today! My colon will be nice and happy!

I had some asparagus already cooked that I added to it. For me not only do they not put enough asparagus but it's only spears, they're pretty tough & not seasoned at all. That said, the flavor of the risotto is GREAT but I think it's better when you add stuff to it. Did I mention I threw some shrimp in mine?? drool

I'm vegetarian but I would add mushrooms. I can't wait to try it!

Next time you go, be sure to get their pistachio cookies and the ginger-sesame potato chips.
