Yeah, my TJs parking lot is a fuckin deathtrap. Anyway the candy cane joejoe's are back but beware goons, at least at mine they're often sold out of the regular ones and just have tons of the gluten free kind, so if you're not paying attention yer gonna get lovely cookies.

Chinatown posted:Their frozen mac and cheese is very good. Which one? The diner-style? Pepperoni pizza? Hatch chile? Reduced guilt? Malcolm Excellent posted:Isn't Traitor Joe's just ALDI for people that are scared to shop at ALDI? Kinda. There are two Aldis, which were originally the same chain but there was a big schism in I think the 80s in Germany, so now there's Aldi Sud and Aldi Nord which are technically different companies doing basically the same thing. One of those operates in the US as Aldi, the other owns Trader Joes. TJs follows a lot of the basic principles behind the German Aldis, such as offering few alternatives/options and having everything possible be store-brand, but they're different companies owned by different people. edit at least here Aldi basically only has stores in extremely lovely neighborhoods, but my understanding is elsewhere they're a "nicer" grocery brand Baron von Eevl fucked around with this message at 19:22 on Nov 28, 2022 |

A fairly easy family dinner we do is a bunch of pita, a box of the frozen dill pickle falafel (or I guess the regular one), some sliced baby cukes, a thing of tzatziki, and maybe some of the grilled chicken slices if you really need meat for some reason. Great family dinner, takes like 20 minutes to go from freezer to table, easy taco night vibes but changes it up. Good stuff.

I've had decent kick with their meat; their 93/7 basic ground beef is weirdly good and is so full of water that it doesn't dry out when you cook it in a pan, and it's generally cheaper than the 90/10 beef you can get in other stores here. Their bread gets moldy extremely fast however, so we generally only get it if we're planning to use the whole thing within a day or two. No issues with the produce here.

We have no need for thread war and Joe would not condone any war at all. The spirit of Joe is one of checking some cool poo poo out and having a good time, you want some of these chocolate covered pretzels? They're pretty good!

For my whole family we do the orange chicken, the veggie fried rice, and a full bag of soycatash. Sometimes I'll mix a few eggs in there too.

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.

Cheeseburger burrito is vastly improved by cooking in the oven versus nearly any other method. Like moreso than most things.

Fish Of Doom posted:So they just started stocking some new product that is literally crushed potato chips, fritos, and peanut butter pretzels all mixed together with melted chocolate and formed into clumps and my god it is super satisfying. We got these a month or so back. I thought the chocolate wasn't chocolatey enough and the corn chip flavor somehow really overwhelmed the whole thing. They were alright but not quite as fantastic as I wished. They don't hold a candle to the dark chocolate covered pretzel thins.

We haven't had it in a while but my kids lived on a diet that was like 40% Japanese rice (supplemented with some extra veggies and maybe a little chicken cut up in it) for years.

MarcusSA posted:The frozen mini tacos are pretty legit. They need a dipping sauce though Do one little bowl of salsa authentica, one of sour cream BUT water the sour cream down so the consistency is closer to a smoothie or maybe like a fairly thick soup. Local taco place does that and it makes dipping infinitely easier.

Remember like two years ago when a handful of people were like "it kinda sucks that they do racial names on some food" and TJ's said they were already stopping it until Fox made like one comment about it and TJ's immediately backtracked and said they were keeping the names? That was pretty gross.

Yeah they're sick, they just require some planning and then you gotta heat up an oven and poo poo first thing in the morning. One morning when the kids were at Grandma's I managed to time it perfectly with leaving them on a making sheet in the oven to proof overnight and had the oven timed to turn on and bake a little longer than they call for since it had to heat up. Head downstairs and BAM fresh croissants.
