Really liking this lately. Perfect lunch:

Had this the other day and it was *so* good!

Second that damn mac & cheese, so glad they came up with a low sodium version. Saw there was a butternut squash version, so there's that.

Any of their chili-lime nuts, Sriracha chips, coconut chunks, ginger-caramel popcorn, thai potstickers.

Frozen food is cheaper at TJ's. Almond butter is everything.
Their wine is awful and always a gag gift for christmas at the office.

My cheating ex put me on to this. I hate that it’s so good.

Ditto on the orange chicken and fried rice. I have to watch what I eat now because if I have RA but some of this stuff I’ll have to definitely try.

Soyaki sauce to marinate stuff with
Cookie butter all of the varieties are good, I like the chocolate swirl one at the moment.
Cheddar and Caramel popcorn mix
Cookie Dunkers
tj's brand ginger beer (good for moscow mules)
chili mangos
laceys cookies
plantain chips


I want to try the bacon cheddar and make a macaroni & cheese with it as one of the cheeses. haven't bit the bullet on it tho, has anyone tried it?


I feel like the odd one out bc everyone seems to really like tj's frozen food offerings but I don't like frozen food because I can't control what is in it. I tried their mac and cheese once bc everyone said it was good. It was so trash to me. I am a macaroni snob tho. hmmph still mad I tried it. :arrogant:triumph:

I wish I could try some, because the last time we went in Trader Joe's, it was so packed we couldn't even turn around. All I got was some lemonade of some sort.

If cooked right the meat falls right off the bone. My mom and I love it. We tried the one from Wegmans after having TJ’s fist and it wasn’t even close to TJ’s.

I’m going to try the orange chicken I keep hearing about it

I tried the sweet and sour chicken since I had orange chicken last time.

It is so good, y'all. The sauce is on point and just like chinese sweet & sour.

I made it with TJ's microwavable brown rice.

It was so moist. Whenever I make brown rice it's pretty dry.

I loved their frozen Pear tart and the Triple Ginger cookies. I used the ginger cookies to make the base for my rum raisin cheesecake. I need to find vegan alternatives for Thanksgiving!!!!

Great thread!

TJ's Torte Flat Bread with ham, carmelized onions and gruyere cheese is to die for! It's light airy and absolutely scrumptious!

I devour a whole one all by myself with a side salad and a nice glass of wine.

Reforumlated? I'll have to try this again then. When I tried it a couple of years ago, it was honestly one of the worst things I had tasted in my entire life. It brought water to my eyes, that's how bad it was. Never had anything like it before or since. But I'll take a chance again. I'll pray first.

Hope you took it back... 'cause you can, you know. That's one of my favorite things about Trader's: you can try anything and if you don't like it, (even if you ate or used it all) you can take it back for a full refund.

Get them bucks back, chile.

I don't know if TJ still has it but if you like ginger and like lime, try the ginger limeade. Makes a great mixer IMO.

I loved the soy nuggets with edamame (frozen section) but they discontinued them. They better not take away the vegetable birds nests! I like all of their salsas, esp. the harissa salsa and the fall harvest which has pumpkin. I could eat their frozen macarons (assorted, not chocolate and vanilla) everyday. The pumpkin muffins with cream cheese are really good too.

Yasss, hunty! After reading a thread in Xes Alley, I went to TJ's for the first time yesterday to pick up some of this juice, and it is SOOOO good! I didn't have time to look around, but I'm bookmarking this thread for when I go back next week.

What kind of juice were you looking for?

I wanna know
