Here's a hint. The leading contender's initials are: T.J. Oh, heck, it's Trader Joe's."Seriously, is there a bigger high on the whole face of the earth than eating a salad?"--SeattleUte

I tried some of the chocolate-covered peppermint Joe-Joes. Yummy.

I am addicted to Cookie Butter. It's like Biscoff Spread, but better. Biscoff Spread is smoother in texture and taste, but Cookie Butter tastes more complex and has wonderful cookie bits that add a fun little crunch. Eating it gives me this wintery holiday feeling. Soo good. I dip tortilla chips into the cookie butter, but you can put it on bread or pretty much anything.

Went last Friday. Took kid and told him he could pick out 1 item in the store. He selected the TJ European Cookie tin, because it was huge ($9.99) and he can use the tin afterward to store his stuff. The cookies were very good, unlike other Euro Cookie mixes you see at Christmas which are pretty much sugar and paste. These cookies were given a grade of D+ by fooducate which tells you how yummy they are.
The first thing I got: kim chee fried rice. Wow. 3 minutes in the microwave and ready to eat.
Commando: They dont have the fruit juices (I call them bottled smoothies) anymore. The guy told me that the vendor who provided these juices was sold 3 months ago, and the new owner refuses to sell to TJs anymore. Coinkidentally, I see these juices cropping up at WalMart and Winco.
The store was half empty. I asked an employee if they had run out of inventory, and he said that they had plenty in the back; they just couldn't stock items fast enough. This bodes well for a second TJs in Lehi/Am Fork.
I'm not this dorky, but I noticed that complete strangers were chatting with other strangers in the parking lot about their TJ experience. A TJ Festivus miracle.Comment

Picked some of those up at the Salt Lake TJ's the other day. They are a problem.Originally posted by Dwight Schr-ute View PostIt's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
The new location is nice but still too crowded to comfortably shop. People crowd around the samples even worse than at Costco. I think it'll be really great to have around when things calm down.
Oh, and toasted seaweed snacks are the bomb diggity, too. Hooray for Trader Joe's!"You know, I was looking at your shirt and your scarf and I was thinking that if you had leaned over, I could have seen everything." ~Trial Ad JudgeComment

I don't get this obsession about samples.Originally posted by Mrs. Funk View Post
Sure, if there isn't a line and there is a sample available and I am interested, great. But at Costco, you see people waiting. 2, 3....5 minutes for the crap to be ready and then waiting behind others.
For a BITE of food.
I don't get it.Comment

Yes, and of course no one ever considerately pulls their carts to the side. Nope, they park it wherever the hell they want and wait ... and wait ... and take two or three samples.Originally posted by Portland Ute View Post"You know, I was looking at your shirt and your scarf and I was thinking that if you had leaned over, I could have seen everything." ~Trial Ad JudgeComment

Which is why I hate to shop at Costco on Saturdays. That and idiots who stop in the middle if the aisle and carry on long conversations with people they meet.Originally posted by Mrs. Funk View Post"There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right?
