[...] Trader Joe’s Flore de Moscato: I first had this wine back in the summer of 2009, and I loved it. When I went back a week later, there was no bottle in sight. In fact, the entire shipment has sold out and there were no plans for more. A reader, Will, posted in a comment that he had 2 extra cases of Flore, and THREE people replied to that comment asking him if he had some left to sell. It sounds silly but it makes me sad that I will never taste that particular blend of Orange Muscat and Muscat Canneli again. [...]

Definitely the mango sorbet & chocolate croissants. They are a must! I also like Two Buck Chuck when I want some wine but don’t want to splurge on a $10 bottle. I recently discovered the grilled chicken fajita style burritos. I put them in the over for 45 minutes and omg… so good!

What I love most about Trader Joe’s is that you can splurge on food without spending a lot of money (as you would at Whole Foods). My $5 favorites are:

1) French ham and gruyere frozen pizza
2) shrimp gyoza
3) Italian frozen pizza (Trader Giotto) – in a variety of flavors. They used to have pear and gorgonzola, which does not sound appealing but was a delicious combo!
4) La Boca wine from Argentina – and of course they have a wide selection of quality wines for cheap
5) Tejava iced tea

Trader Joe’s has THE BEST frozen mac and cheese ever. I needed to yell also, Kelly . The mac and cheese is terrible for you and has all sorts of fat and sodium, but if you need some comfort food, I’ve never had better pre-made mac and cheese. It’s priced right around $5, but might be a little more. It’s been awhile since I’ve purchased it. Mental note: need to go to Trader Joe’s!

I love Trader Joe’s Masala Burger. Among sweet things , the chocolate chip Dunk cookies are also awesome.. very very decadent and chocolatey!

KETTLE CORN! Sorry don’t mean to yell. it’s seriously the best snack ever.

So many other good buys.
Wild frozen blueberries
Greek style yogurt

So many more, but I have to go ear breakfast.

Oh dear, where to start? My favorites were the White Cheddar Soy Crisps, but those have apparently been discontinued. The Fat Free Tart Frozen Yogurt = wonderful beyond wonderful. The TJ’s brand chocolate soy milk is great if you like chocolate soy milk

Also, um…Just Chicken Strips (frozen), and Chile Lime Chicken Burgers (frozen), and my TJ’s had these ribs last week…and the Roasted Red Pepper Eggplant spread…and lordy. I could go on for days. I do love it there.

I love the sundried tomato chicken sausages. So yummy! My only gripe is that they spoil too soon, even though I put them in a ziploc bag after opening and store them in the fridge.

I haven’t seen the chocolate croissants yet…perhaps they don’t have them here in LA? But it’s making my mouth water…
