    Their freezer section has a lot of good stuff, desserts, snacks, and dinner items. Their orange juice is also a favorite of mine.

    Their 1 dollar canned drinks

    I like the sparkling coconut water with yuzu. The sparkling pineapple and watermelon juice are pretty good too

    the jerk seasoned plantain chips are great.

    OH WAIT they have some of the best vegan ice cream. Try the chocolate ice cream made with coconut milk. Actually super fucking good. And its super cheap, for vegan ice cream.

    Their store brand Dijon mustard is worth a look. Got a decent little kick. They also occasionally have a bunch of interesting vegan dips. I got a vegan buffalo dip and some kind of vegan salmon dip that were both great.

    I always buy:

    Moroccan mint tea - my daily drinker.

    Lasagna - the best frozen one out there. It’s cheaper than the others and tastes almost as good as homemade.

    Margherita pizza - Also the best frozen pizza I’ve had. The 3 cheese is solid as well.

    Chocolate babka - a really good pastry

    Multigrain bread - bread

    Peony candles - their candles are seasonal and you can only find these around spring, but they’re the best floral scent I’ve had in a candle at the cheapest price- $4 here. I don’t care for the summer candles.

    Murasaki purple sweet potatoes - These aren’t the proper Japanese variety, but they’re the closest you can get cheaply in North America. They’re much richer than other sweet potatoes, with a chestnutty taste. I pretty much only use these.

    Sipping chocolate - Generally I make Mexican hot chocolate, but this is so much better than other American hot chocolates. It’s thicker and has a way better taste.

    Orange and teriyaki chicken, as well as the frozen Indian meals. All of the Asian options are nice, the taquitos are great, and the pesto pasta is a staple.

    The floral section is pretty good and I normally grab a cheap bouquet and some eucalyptus for my shower. Sometimes they have nice houseplants.

      got the Moroccan tea because you suggested it and it does sound good. as a fan of both green tea and mint tea I figure I’ll love it

      also got a pizza but its the roasted vegetable kind instead since I’ve had that one before and like it

    One of my favorite items is, Trader Joe’s kringle. It is a wisconson pastry that is usually seasonal. They fly it in from one bakery. There are several different flavors. My favorite is the pumpkin one during fall.

    Also good are, the Zhong sauce, the Double dipped chocolate biscotte, the habanero potato chips, the frozen french green beans, finally the Shawarma Chicken Thighs.
