So it’s been brought to my attention and my shock, that many
of you do not have Trader Joe’s in your area and don’t even know what it
is! This is tragic – you must write you
cityman or citywoman and petition!
Trader Joe’s is a wonderland of gourmet culinary delights from around
the world. They are a little grocery
store of love where magical items seem to be less expensive and far more
delicious than other markets. Trader Joe’s
carries loads of organic produce and foods with no preservatives, artificial
flavors or colors, has a crazy wine and cheese selection, and when you go there
– everyone is laid back and happy. Like,
I want to hang out there and be friends with these people. They’re laughing, ringing bells, handing out
delicious bites of love in their sample stand and wearing Hawaiian shirts! What more could you want?
And now for my pick of the week - it's a 2fer
These are light, crispy snacks that scream Fall!
The apple taste is not super sweet like fake apple candy. Oh no, it tastes like
apple sauce, but crispy!
I'm not going to lie - only 1 out of 3 of my children like them, but I'm sure
all other children will love them! Like I do.
And another little bite of Fall - the Pumpkin Bars.
These are great snacks for kid's lunches or to grab when you're
running out the door. The pumpkin is jut for Fall, but
during the year they have fig, apple, blueberry and strawberry.
What things do you love to buy at Trader Joe's?
Don't have a TJ? Leave a comment and you could get a little care package of TJ love!!
We don't have a trader Joes in Tremont or around us in Peoria area. I had never even heard of it!
ReplyDeleteSadly, TJs is just a fond memory for us now that we are in Chattanooga.
ReplyDeleteI just discovered the pumpkin butter at TJ's. It is amazing! I put it on a cracker with a little bit of goat cheese. yum!
ReplyDeleteNo Trader Joe's here in my area of Maryland :( The food looks delicious though!
ReplyDeleteRae, try Toasted Coconut Cookie Thins!
ReplyDeleteTulsa, OK desperately needs a TJ's! But, in the meantime, I'll happily accept a "care package" ;)

We don't have a TJ, but our family from out of town sometimes brings TJ treats to share. I've loved them all!
ReplyDeleteDid I mention that I hope I win?
ReplyDeleteI love my local trader joes, I moved from a location without one anywhere within a drivable distance and it made me sad b/c i missed their mango peach yogurt and all the frozen indian entrees!
