Trader Joe's
Most of you on the west coast have had trader joes for ever…we just got one near downtown in Houston. I’ve had some of their stuff in the past…all delicious…..
I love taking their brown rice tortillas and making chips out of them ( under the broiler). What are the must have’s I need to be eating from here? |
Is the BEST!!!! Thats where I do 75% of my shopping, the other 25% is whole foods.
There's soo many things at Trader Joes, I can list. Just walk down all the isle's and try everything! |
For a quick healthy snack I like their Just chicken. It is cooked, sliced chicken breast and is cheaper than anything in a normal store. a pound of ready to eat good chicken for $5. Their cereals are good. Their trail mixes are awesome. They have a ton of good frozen stuff that appears to be a little healthier than most freezer dinners. Pork potstickers, butter chicken, enchiladas, orage chicken, microwavable brown rice, etc.. So much good stuff.
I can't bring myself to shop at Whole paycheck. IT is so effing expensive. I made a salad there once and it was like 12-15 bucks and wasn't that crazy of a salad. I can go into a restaraunt and buy a ridiculous salad for the same price but have someone serve it to me for the same price or cheaper. On the other hand their cakes are ridiculously good although I think price varies depending on the store. So fricken good. |
THAT PLACES IS AWESOME. The frozen mac n cheese is killer, frozen rolled tacos are awesome, they have some bomb banana yogurt, gotta get the MOCHI ICECREAM!! so good. All the frozen stuff they sell is pretty good, I live off of it in college haha.

Its easier to say what they do that isn't good... wait thats not easy either... I can't think of anything. No wait 2 buck chuck isn't any good anymore. The rest is excellent.

not too many bad tasting things at TJ's.
my weekly must have pick ups though are the following: De Mi Abuela Corn and Wheat tortillas, Pumpernickel pretzels, Parmasen/Gouda mixed cheese, honey nut o's, and the soft granola bars, any flavor will do. their cheese selection is actually really good, if you are into cheeses. they carry Hoegarden beer now too, which is nice. their wine selection is a little overated in my opinion, but overall, it is the best grocery store in my area. |
