If I hadn't been there I wouldn't have developed a specific opinion, duh. As stated above I do shop there, mostly for peanut butter. Watching the folks ahead of me in line leads me to conclude it's mostly a liquor store. The folks ahead of me almost invariably spend more on wine than on food, usually by a wide margin.
Some of my favorites:
Those russian "pierogi" dumplings.
Madrigal cheese.
Sparkling pomegranate juice
Garlic Eggplant dip
Hummus quartet
Marinated artichokes
Marinated mushrooms
Flax plus serial
Mashed potatoes.
The tuna curries
New York cheesecake
I love trader joes to bad the closest one to me is 3 hours away in STL....
I always hit it up when I'm there and basically pack up a cooler full of delicious goodies and basically get a sampling of soups etc.....
There are kind of "Organic" type oriented grocery stores but you can't beat the prices at trader joes and you can always find somelthing new and interesting (to me anyway).....
like dried mangosteen for example...
There aren't any Trader Joes in Texas that i know of but i did see my first one when i was in California a few days ago.
The two things i had there were Cajun turkey and hot pepper cheese made from yogurt. They were good but no different then what i used to buy in high school at HEB.
..ya..get all my sprouted rye bread..coffee. Try the Dark Sumatra Whole Bean coffee. And the Extra Bitter dark choclate bars are great. I wish they had a bigger parking lot.
