I get major gas from those pot stickers. They're good though.

I'm sad the two Trader Joe's around me do not sell wine or beer because of antiquated Massachusetts Blue Laws.

I could eat those potstickers for days. That and their $2 dried cranberries + yogurt. Yes please.

I'm always tempted to go to trader joes because of all the wonderful things I see posted but I'm worried if I do I'll get fat ;-;

I'm a big fan of the chili lime chicken burgers with some havarti pepper cheese on them.
The orange chicken is amazing too. Little vinegar and sweet taste that is just great. Usually cook it with their veggie fried rice, and cook the rice in a little peanut oil.
Can't go wrong with the spinach kale and Greek yogurt dip either. It sounds gross but it's incredible.
And 3 buck chuck is great, especially for the price.

Imagine eating a gingerbread man cookie in the form of cinnabon frosting.

I don't really drink much, buut I wish my TJ's was allowed to sell wine (goddamn Utah state laws).
Anyway, I digress...
Yesssss. So close to Spanish pepinillos. Gonna need to pick some of these up tomorrow.

So good!!
I like how they taste but inevitably the texture really gets old. Such hard, gritty bean powder gets stuck in your mouth when you eat these.
They have been pusshing that popcorn hard lately. Coincidentally with the intro of partially popped popcorn. Does i taste different than regular popcorn? I can't imaging already popped and bagged popcorn would taste better than microwave popcorn.
Yeah, it's incredible.

This is what got me to go into Trader Joe's in the first place:

The Rosé is so damn good.
I used this Crankyjay thread as a guide when I first started shopping at Trader Joe's:

I went from buying everything, trying stuff out...to just going there every few weeks for wine, simpler times beer, pork buns, bread and terriyaki chicken. I don't understand how the terriyaki chicken is made via microwave, tastes great and is low calorie. It's just straight up sorcery.

If there's one food I would eat forever and not have any consequence, it would be that specific popcorn. I love popcorn of all varieties, and that's the best one I've ever had. YMMV as with everything, but it's so damn good. It almost tastes fresh-popped.
Also, I'm not sure in your case, but they've been putting it on our bigger displays because so many damn people are buying them; it's the one item they seem to be consistently sold out of in between delivery days.

That's what she said.
it's ridiculous how hard they have been pushing it at my local store. I wonder if they made extra batches to catch the partially popped and packaged the regular popped as a result lol. I'll pick it up next time. Does it taste like olive oil or what?

Their Belgian Chocolate bars are excellent, especially the one with Almonds.
Stay away from their produce.

It kills me that there are no Trader Joe's in Montreal. Like, literally.
