Reply to comment by anemonemometer in Well c’mon, what does everyone think of the new Trader Joe’s? by AgedParmy

Trader Joe's isn't really supposed to be a place where you get all your grocery shopping done. It's supposed to supplement a larger grocery store. It's also very geared toward giving you ideas. So if you're sitting at home thinking, "What do I want to eat this week?" and you make a grocery list, you probably won't be able to buy everything at Trader Joe's. But if you just show up with no idea what you're going to eat this week, you're supposed to think, "Oh, that would be great, I'm going to do that."

Good point! I have been shopping at the TJ's in Cranston (too much) and a lot of it is very processed food, particularly the frozen dinners. But certain things they sell, such as olives, cheeses, and salsas, are quite good and relatively inexpensive.

They have a great cheese selection for sure! Interesting dipping sauces too.
