I used to live near a Trader Joe's but don't any longer, so I would get all my favorites, haha. Orange chicken, chocolate covered potato chips, green tea mochi ice cream, cookie spread.2
-
is the orange chicken a frozen meal ? oh yeah, love the cookie butter but I have no control when it's in the house.0

I have a Trader Joe's like 2 mins from work and 45 mins if walking and taking the long way around (and I always do) near my apt so....
Just the Chicken chicken strips
the lower sodium pistachios in the shell
mini chocolate chip cookies
animal crackers
persian cucumbers
low sodium chicken broth
mini biscotti
mini windmill cookies
cookie butter (when I forget I go crazy once the jar is opened)
Various frozen desserts if I feel like trying (the macaroons were good)
The white cheddar corn puffs
apple cinnamon straws
Streusel topped blueberry muffins (when I forget I go crazy)3 -
omg streusel topped muffins sound fabulous, adding that to my list. If you like cookies, try the vanilla wafers they have in the clear bucket - delish!0

I really feel like I should have had more cookies on my list.
I'll buy Jo Jos every once in a while but I wasn't a fan of their thin jo jos...the oreo thins knock off. The wafer was too bitter or something.
The neapolitan jo jos were soooooooooooo good and I didn't think I'd like those since I'm not a fan of strawberry fillings.1 -
The light shredded mozzarella is the best light cheese I've ever had. Stretches and melts just like any full fat mozzarella. 45 calories for one ounce. It's amazing and I can't live without it.
I also love their cauliflower stir fry rice, cilantro chicken wontons, meatless meatballs, greek yogurts (they come out with amazing flavors!), assorted chocolates, PB and J bars, spicy cheese crunchies, cinnamon schoolbook cookies, cat cookies, organic ketchup (seriously the best tasting ketchup and dirt cheap), salsas, spices, and the amazing cookie butter. I won't buy that anymore since I can't control myself around it lol. Trader Joe's is the best place to shop.4 -
I like a lot of their vegetarian products:
vegan orange chicken--the meatless version of the one mentioned above
chickenless crispy tenders
meatless meatballs
high fiber cereal (I mix it into my yogurt)
salsa
frozen Indian meals
chocolate bars
almond butter cocoa bars
Dr. Bronner's peppermint soap, which my husband loves
tuna, for the cat1 -
-Coconut Creamer
-Almond Milk
-Oatmeal
-Coffee beans (I forget which, but I know it has a parrot on the container??)
-Eggs
-Butter
-Limes (they're so cheap there)
-marinara sauce (for pizzas, or to use as a base for pasta sauces)
-pre-made pizza dough
-typical veggies are: zucchini, mushrooms, bell peppers, tomatoes, onions, and there's always spinach, carrots, and celery in the fridge
-canned stuff: beans (black beans, chickpea, white beans)
-dried stuff: pasta, lentils, rice, sliced bread
-fruit is always kinda pricey there so we just get whatever's in season
-AND A LOT OF THAT MINERAL WATER lol I'm obsessed with the cranberry clementine flavor

Gouda cheese
Honey goat cheese
Gouda goat cheese
Hummus quartet
Spanish brand deli salami
Rosemary ham
Raisin rosemary crisps

What is cookie butter? I have poor control around sweet things so maybe I'm better off not knowing. But curious.
I tried to go to Traders one time, but couldn't find a parking space and left. So pissed off I never went back. (I get angry way out of proportion over parking and waiting in lines.)0 -

Cookie butter is crack in a jar.
That's all you need to know.
And, yeah, I have no patience for lines or waiting anymore which is partly why I walk there like a half hour before they close.0 -
Cold brew coffee concentrate, wine, frozen shrimp (the Argentinian red is so good), frozen chicken fried rice, pita chips, hummus, cookie butter sandwich cookies0

Cookie Butter is similar to peanut butter in texture, but made from ground up speculoos cookies. I can just eat it from the spoon.0 -
cinnamon sugar muffin/baking mix, everything bagel seasoning.0

Not food related but has anyone tried the nourish spa shampoo and conditioner? Love their mint and olive oil lip balm.
I picked up all kinds of great stuff, looking forward to a pretzel bagel for breakfast tomorrow.0
