The semi-irregular "Cool stuff at Trader Joe's" thread

Do you go to Mitsuwa or Marukai? Cause I go to both.

Kobe beef strips. YUM!
Fresh lychee fruit (in season)
green tea from the green tea stand. Plus I'll buy that Yamamotoyama (yomama) Iced Green Tea there too.
Sushi stand is good too.
Poki sticks.

I will be looking for the beef strips and the tea.
Mitsua just got a Beard Poppas so I'm happy about that!

I love the kobe beef strips for making gyudon (beef bowl) and sometimes shabu shau at home. I guess it's more like paper thin slices than strips.


Have I mentioned that I'm off my raw food kick?

I miss Trader Joe's cous-cous they used to sell a few years back.

I like their Estonian Black Sea vodka. probably not the best tasting vodka, but the bottle is pretty nice

[Leatherface]

I work at one.

if you have any questions, about products or anything else TJ's related, fire away.

wine rec: the 6.99 Novella Synergy from Paso Robles.

****ing unreal. our entire store loves it, and thats pretty rare. We're pretty much split down the middle on stuff like Velvet Moon.

they got some great garlic herb pizza dough, ill usually put some crushed garlic, yogurt cheese, goat cheese, zuchini, tomatos and basil on this and make some killer veggie pizza

and you cant go wrong with hummus

[Leatherface]

pretty tasty.

I have the whole wheat pizza dough on occasion as the wife cant eat garlic.
