Bad:
Sheppard's Pie


That's really funny, a guy that works at my store lived in the UK for a long, long time, and we had a lengthy discussion about the disgusting + inauthentic nature of the Sheppard's Pie.


Also...We just got La Famigilia 2004 Pinot Grigio back, 2.99 a bottle, were getting 50 cases today I believe...
 
If you are a fan of Hess Cabernet we are going to be carrying it under a second label called XS. The price is only 3.99 and should be hitting stores in the next day or so.
 
Make sure you get the Chipwiches! They are called "Sublime Ice cream sandwiches" or something like that. I do know the word sublime is in there.

Sooooo good

Finally got a box of these this past weekend. I hate you Obe. Hate you with so much love.


I used their nonfat plain yogurt as a sub for about half the light mayo I put in a tater salad this past weekend. Made it a lot creamier, and it was a bit tangy which balanced the chives, leeks and cayenne nicely.
 
Just tried TJ's roast beef hash. Fry it up and add an egg. Not salty and greasy like canned. Only 1.5 grams of fat and delish!
 
I had the Grill Pressed Eggplant Wrap with Spicy Tahini Sauce for lunch and thought it was pretty tasty.
 
Why wasn't I aware of this thread? :O

I love the Spinach Lasagna and Black Bean and Corn Enchiladas. :D

I haven't really tried much of their wine. but I am not really into wine. I miss when they had all sorts of odd beers for sale.

Well, at least, they sell hard liquor. ;)
 
I really miss their salted blister peanuts. I may just have to cheat the low-sodium, low-fat way of life for a bit and get a tub of them. And no, the unsalted ones do NOT a good substitute make.
 
I want to try this!

But the fact that such a big bottle is about eleven bucks and the fact that it's distilled in San Ho, well, it makes me wary.

Then again. :manybeers:
 
Warsteiner mini-kegs $9.99. Hefe or Marzen Uh-oh!
bananadan:

Also, a tip for everyone. The frozen naan beats the crap out of the fresh!
 
My most favorite item at TJ's is the frozen steel cut oatmeal, one because I love the texture, and two it's totally my style of cooking. Unwrap, microwave, enjoy!
