    I don't shop at Trader Joes much, usually because it's a bit out of the way and I have to take muni to get there, but when I do go, I usually go strait for the bananas (they are so inexpensive there!) and some other produce items (if it looks good). Then I head down their "junk food" aisles where they have chocolate covered cranberries and knona cookies. TJs has a wide variety of what I consider "junk food". Some things i just can't resist trying every once in awhile.

    LOVE their Mahi-mahi burgers.

    I always buy those, the $.19/lb bananas (best price ever!), they have a white fish with pesto and veggies that's a great dinner, turkey burgers, hummus.....

    I'm going to have to try their seaweed snacks!

    If that is all you buy there then I suppose that is true (regarding it just being a big snack bar). I find plenty of healthy, real foods. They have a great return policy if you do have a problem with their produce or you buy something that you just don't like.

    trader joe's is has cheaper healthier options than any grocery store I've ever been to! But it's also full of tempting junk. I can never buy their cluster cereals again - so sugary. delicious though!

    this is literally my list of can't-live-without healthy TJ's products- these are always in my kitchen or my shopping cart!

    large tubs of plain 0% greek yogurt, frozen fruit, unbeatable price for Ezekiel bread, baked tofu, frozen veggies, Cara Cara oranges, frozen gyoza, Island Soyaki sauce, Spanish olive oil, coconut & sesame oils, Orange Champagne vinegar, canned smoked trout, salmon burgers, frozen soy ginger raw cod, Sumatra coffee, garlic salt, individually portioned goat cheese, lite mexican shredded cheese blend, smoked salmon, great prices on produce, rainbow quinoa....

    Hummus, cheese(any), blue corn chips, mango salsa, ground turkey, premade salads(greek), cherry tomato, nuts... I could go on and on.
    Oh I forgot wine, it's good for the heart in moderation ;)
