to Trader Joe's when I moved to the Pasadena Area...the number of TJ's here is awesome. I love the butternut squash pasta, and the Milton's Bread.

To my tea friend- They have wonderful green tea including flavored and decaf. Try the decaf english breakfast tea there- it is strong, flavorful and a bargain too. I buy all my tea there and that is all I drink. Sorry I left that out of my article.

reading your review even though I shop Trader Joes all the time. There is one just a few blocks from me and when I drive by it draws me in! I am a big Olive Oil buyer too and never buy it at the regular grocery stores any more. And I like the fruit and nuts aisle. Quality nuts are expensive at the grocery stores - you can save a lot at Trader Joes. My kids love Asian pot stickers. Trader Joes has them for 25 to 50% less than the Asian Markets in my area.

Thanks for a great review. I thoroughly enjoy your writing style!

Do they carry tea? I'm looking for a few varieties of green tea.

Thanks,

Trader's Joes was one of the best new things I got to experience when I moved to CA from GA (besides the weather)! I love their products and I agree, their prices are so much better than the regular grocery store. Plus, they have an added benefit - they don't have detailed, itemized receipts yet so when my graduate school program has "journal club" (which is really beer/wine/snack hour), we can get the alcoholic goodies even though technically we are only supposed to be reimbursed for "food" items:)

Excellent review on a great store!

Fresh Fields in Manhasset for a real treat also! (Right across from the Americana, in the Bed Bath & Beyond store) There's a Trader Joe's by my office and I get nuke-able lunch there a lot!

I traded Joe for Melvin and he is waiting
buck naked for me in the other room. I love
the goodies, um, wares too.

Great review!

love Trader Joes and missed it very much after moving back east from Santa Cruz, CA. I was so happy that they opened one here last year. I turned all my friends, family and co-workers into Trader Joe fans.

Great review that reminded me it's time to go shopping

I used to live in San Francisco, where there are several Trader Joe's -- when I moved back east, I was upset at my lack of one, but they just opened up a new branch in my area (Philly) -- I can't wait to get there! Great review!
