~supply chain~ has really hosed TJs more than most stores I think, it was really dire when I was doing shopping there during peak lockdown. Variety just went to zero. I use the number of different frozen pizzas as the metric for how they're bouncing back, at its peak they had like 20 kinds and at the worst they had like 4? Right now I think my store has about 10-12 so recovering but not recovered.

I miss the Kati pouches. It was like a hot pocket but good. Idk if it was at all authentic but my gujarati co worker loved them too.

Joe day is almost upon us. Time to watch my wife put 12 boxes of random cookies in the cart before I dump them in the wine aisle.

No one shops *only* at TJs for groceries through right. No one would be that deranged.

WAR CRIME GIGOLO posted:I consider any food item bought in a grocery store a grocery. I think the question was whether anyone shops for food at Trader Joe’s and no other grocery stores, not whether you only buy groceries at Trader Joe’s. As for me, there’s no way I would be able to grocery shop at TJ’s now, though I came pretty close in college.

I go there a lot when I visit my kids in Simi Valley. Super nice place. Masks were worn by employees until the mandate was lifted. Also an older man pointed out to me the best spaghetti sauce was in this can on the bottom shelf. Didn’t believe him but bought it and it was the best tasting sauce I’ve ever tasted. Now I haven’t seen it in years. 😞

Joe's regular jarred sauces are pretty good, the basil one with the red label is hands-down the best store brand sauce I've ever had, and it's probably better than all but the really high end specialty sauces. Anyway I can't imagine how TJ sells loaves of bread except to people who can eat a whole loaf in one day or who really need penicillin in exactly 4 days and want make it themselves.

You take the Tuscan loaves and throw them directly in the freezer and use it up as you need. That's how.

I saw a friend of mine driving in the parking lot of Trader Joes and I texted him on our group chat I saw him and he sent me a photo  How good are these? I used to like the chocolate covered peanut butter filled pretzels but they changed the recipe or something and they're not as good anymore

Only good if you really like maple, with more sweetness than intensity iirc. I like sweets but I can handle about one of those.

TJ's frozen chow mein for dinner last night. Thaw the sauce packet and mix it with a few dashes of oyster sauce, sesame oil, light soy sauce, Huy Fong garlic chile paste. Splash of Shaoxing cooking wine. Add extra broccoli and peppers. Toss in a wok. One of my go-to weekday dinners.
