Try the crumpets in the bread aisle. They are wonderful toasted with cream cheese and jelly. I used to be able to buy crumpets at a British store that closed. They were in the dairy case

I thought these might not be as good, being unrefrigerated. They are every bit as good

"Pretzel Roll" bagels (in the bread aisle)

Trader Joe's jarred marina sauce is excellent

Trader Joe's body butter 

Any flavor of their biscotti

I also cast my vote for the orange chicken!

I was just shopping at Trader Joe's today and they were taste testing the corn chili salsa and it is very good with a lot of possibilities to eat with. I am sold on their no guilt mac and cheese. I do like the soaps. Wine and veggies of course. I am a TJ fan for sure. Most of the other items I like have been listed.

We love the Trader Joes peanuts,in the bags,also the peanut butter cups ,milk chocolate and dark chocolate.They are different from reeses,which we love ,but just as good.Just about all the Trader Joe brands we have found to be good!

My friend had a lot of other places she wanted to go so I didn't do the cooler, but managed to spend $51 and change!  Hot & sweet jarred jalapeno's, peanut butter cups, smoky peach salsa, cowboy cavier salsa, organic chia bars, peanut butter breakfast bars, free range chicken broth, TJ's facial cleansing oil, sesame seed oil, extra sweet dried mango, crumpets, pretzel bagels, tuscan pane bread and plaintain sweet chips!  The trip had to be postponed as I got sick with bronchitis, but we finally made.  Thank you for all the suggestions and next trip I will take a cooler and try more suggestions!

Oh girl....if you or someone you know LOVES peanut butter cups, you must get the milk chocolate peanut butter cups that they sell.  They put Reese's Peanut Butter cups to shame.  As a matter of fact, you'll never buy another Reese's once you taste Traders (I think they sell them in both milk and dark chocolate).  Here's others that are good:

- Frozen gnocchi - both kinds are awesome - one is in red sauce and the other is a white sauce

- Frozen linguini with clam sauce

- Saucy Scallops with Mushrooms (frozen section)

- Three cheese pizza - I think it's organic...nothing like you buy in a typical grocery store.  It's baked in a brick oven

- Their baked good are fantastic. 

- Potstickers

- Prepared ribs (heat and eat).  You'll find them in the refridgerated section.  I never had a bad heat and eat meal from Traders.

- Be careful buying seafood or fish.  If it's from China or other countries, skip it.  Most of it is farm raised, which is no good

HAVE FUN!!!

hope you are feeling much better now.

At least you got to scope out the place and get ideas.

You did get some yummy items!

I did get the milk chocolate peanut butter cups which are fabulous!!! 

We went yesterday.  Took me two full weeks to feel better and still not 100%, but significantly better! 

Put the hot and sweet jalapeno slices on a sandwich today and they are great!  Glad I bought two jars.

@Shelbelle Ahhh those Korean pancakes are the best and not high calorie either.i always have them in the freezer.I have a Korean friend who says that she puts kimchee in hers..says put whatever you like.She told me to get the pancake mix at Asian store and make my own but I haven't ventured into that yet.
