The LO's I used to nanny for out of state went there a lot, and they have lots of yummy things! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trader-joes-coming-soon-to-a-location-near-me#post-487165 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 19:57:19 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 487165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Well, I used to live in CA so I had been to them before. I definitely like the variety of foods they offer, and you can't pass up their 2 buck chuck :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trader-joes-coming-soon-to-a-location-near-me#post-487138 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 19:44:51 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 487138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just got one.

We were there yesterday and I don't know where they could put it! And just one more thing in an already overcrowded plaza! The only downside </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trader-joes-coming-soon-to-a-location-near-me#post-487055 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 19:08:42 +0000 aprk 487055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My favorite things (in no particular order) are their natural crunchy peanut butter, chicken apple sausage and edamame hummus. Enjoy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trader-joes-coming-soon-to-a-location-near-me#post-487044 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 19:01:04 +0000 regberadaisy 487044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh man, I'm excited!</p> <p>@sarbear: I can't think of a empty space in that plaza! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trader-joes-coming-soon-to-a-location-near-me#post-487015 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 18:48:09 +0000 duckduckkristen 487015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yay!

Chocolate crossants, fried Mac and cheese, samosas, cilantro and chive dip, pita chips, pear apple cider. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trader-joes-coming-soon-to-a-location-near-me#post-486930 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 17:59:01 +0000 autumnlove 486930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: My LO loves the butternut squash! I need to try more of your favorites! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trader-joes-coming-soon-to-a-location-near-me#post-486918 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 17:56:11 +0000 shopaholic 486918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>oh man you're going to love it! I almost exclusively shop at TJ's! So much good stuff I can't even remember all of it, but here are some of the items I regularly pick up at TJ's!</p> <p>- Pre-cut and packaged butternut squash (in season).<br /> - Frozen artichoke hearts<br /> - Dark Chocolate Covered Nutty Bits (nut clusters half covered in dark choc. Everyone I've given these to have loved them - so addicting!)<br /> - Chevre Goat Cheese logs. Well, all their cheeses are great!<br /> - Trader Joe's Truffle Brownie Mix (the recipe for the cookies are excellent!)<br /> - Kefir milk in pomegranate and strawberry<br /> - Mixed nuts bags<br /> - Mini heirloom tomatoes<br /> - Bruschetta<br /> - Dark Chocolate Covered Pretzel Thins<br /> - Pretzel Thins with any of their hummus (esp. the sun-dried tomato one, I love)<br /> - Trader Joe's Mango &amp; Cream (ice cream/sorbet) bars (I have to always keep these stocked in our freezer! A nice little treat under 100 calories!)</p> <p>I could go on and on... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trader-joes-coming-soon-to-a-location-near-me#post-486905 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 17:47:00 +0000 bpcmarj 486905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Their chicken andoiulle makes an AWESOME and authentic tasting red beans and rice. And it's cheap. Seriously, so damn good and now I want it!! Ha. Other things I like are frozen mandarin chicken (though may be a little lame compared to the real food you eat! Ha), fancy vanilla wafers, chicken and sundried tomato tortellini in the prepared food section, and pizza bagels. I used to go there a lot for lunch where I used to work. We don't have one close enough to do real shopping there regularly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trader-joes-coming-soon-to-a-location-near-me#post-486808 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 17:06:38 +0000 banana 486808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love their applewood bacon too!

Most of their stuff is yummy, but off the top of my head, some of my current faves:<br /> - Pumpkin pancake mix (LO's favorite too!)<br /> - Pumpkin butter<br /> - TJ's mushroom &amp; emmental cheese pizza</p> <p>Gosh so many more, but that's what I can think of right off the top of my head. Their produce is really good and affordable too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trader-joes-coming-soon-to-a-location-near-me#post-486720 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 16:38:49 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 486720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yay!! We just got one last year.

I'm excited to see if it's really that amazing. They're opening up a branch later this year!</p> <p>What's your favorite item from TJ? Why is it so amazing? </p>
