Is it awkward that I would want to move to the States for the sole purpose of being able to shop at Trader Joe’s?
Not awkward; very normal.

Trader Joe’s
Trader Joe’s Wasabi Mayonnaise singlehandedly changed my mind about mayonnaise. Mayo is disgusting, right? That’s what I thought. White gloop. Don’t put that on my sandwich, gross. But if you think of it not as mayo, but aioli (italian for gloop), then it’s more like something you would be psyched a restaurant was drizzling over your fries.
I had Trader Joe’s Organic Tomato & Red Pepper Soup for lunch today! It seems like such a simple soup, maybe too simple, but it’s not. It’s genius. I think the flavor is solid and if it’s not spicy enough you can always add some sriracha.
Trader Joe’s Chile Spiced Mango is usually a hit. It’s way more interesting than your average dried fruit. It’s super cheap, too, something like $1.99. My recommendation is to buy way more bags of it than you think you need.
Trader Joe’s Refresh Shampoo and Conditioner is not great. I used to buy it for convenience. I mean, I wish Trader Joe’s sold socks and jewelry and stuff. And why did they stop carrying tampons? Anyway, it’s just not worth it. After all, your hair is your head suit - Jack Donaghy.
Trader Joe’s Puffed Wheat Cereal is my jam. The box says it has only two ingredients, and I checked on the side and really, only two in the list. Wheat and agave syrup. Isn’t that nuts? Seems like you could make it at home, except you know they use Trader Joe’s magic to make it. Damn, it’s good cereal.
Trader Joe’s Belgian Chocolate Pudding is super, super good. I challenge it against whatever chocolate pudding you’re into. I’m not even that into chocolate.
Trader Joe’s Organic Mini Peanut Butter Sandwich Crackers are satisfying in kind of a regrettable way. I ate these a lot when I was a nanny, but I usually wished I’d eaten an orange instead. Still, they’re tasty.
Trader Joe’s Cinnamon Crumb Coffee Cake is so good. It is so good I never share it. So I never buy it. Because it is too good.
Trader Joe’s Harvest Grains Blend is tasty and, I’m guessing, nutritious. It is far, far more exciting than rice.
Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Spice Chai Tea Latte Mix is good but it’s very sweet. Too sweet, maybe. What do you guys think?
Trader Joe’s Just the Clusters Maple Pecan Granola is tasty but I think their cereal comes in too-small boxes.
Trader Joe’s Jalapeño Chicken Sausage gets eaten really quickly in my house. Most sausage weirds me out but this stuff doesn’t weird me out as much.
Trader Joe’s Organic 3 Grain Tempeh is the only tempeh you need, I swear. It’s just the right amount of tempeh, and way cheaper than the competitor’s tempeh.
I don’t know if Trader Joe’s Organic Tricolor Quinoa is three times as healthy than regular, one color quinoa, but I assume it is. It looks really good with other food on a plate.
Trader Joe’s Punjab Choley tastes way better than you think it should. Pretty damn good! I bring the foil packets on camping/backpacking trips. With Trader Joe’s Naan and rice it’s a solid meal.
Trader Joe’s Lemon & Triple Ginger Snap Ice Cream is super good. There are huge chunks of gingersnap to dig out, and the lemon ice cream itself is great.
If you only have 2 minutes to live, and you happen to be in a Trader Joe’s, and all your loved ones are with you, haul ass to the freezer aisle and grab the Green Tea Mochi Balls with one hand and this ice cream with the other.
Trader Joe’s Crisp Rice Cereal is solid. You get a lot of it for your dollar. If you’re a fan of classic cereals, you’ll love this.
Trader Joe’s Silver Goat Chevre is the deal of the century. It’s worth a separate trip to Trader Joe’s just to buy this stuff. It’s so creamy and you get so much of it for only like $3.99. (Price might be wrong).
