@bewise I believe they are owned by the same parent company.  I love both stores and shop both often.  I won't have any other ketchup in the house besides TJ's, the best I have ever had!


 

 

Me, too!  I *love* their organic ketchup!

 

Hi @momtochloe Smiley Happy


Tee hee, normally I am not that passionate about a condiment @Noel7 but that ketchup just knocks it out of the park for me . . . I know you are not feeling well right now my friend and I so hope for better times ahead for you in the very near future!


 

Thanks @momtochloe  Heart  It's been a very rough time for us, two shocking deaths and three close friends diagnosed with cancer.

 

Stress brings on flares.  I wish there was something that could be done to control that but there isn't.

Re: Trader Joe's - America's Favorite Grocery Store

You never know how long something will continue being sold at TJs (the only bummer), but I am very fond of their fairly new eclairs in the frozen dessert section. I greatly prefer them to the tasteless "fresh" ones sold at Safeway. When I go, I stock up, but they don't last all that long ;-)

 

Another long-time favorite item I buy again and again is their bar of French lavender soap with loofah fibers embedded in the soap. Brilliant for a quick shower!

Try going at Christmas time, it's a wonderland then.  Go early in the morning to see if you can snag an almond Kringle, the best pastry I've ever had in my life.  Seriously.  They also have a raspberry, pumpkin at Thanksgiving.  The Kringle will be in their fresh bakery section.

Add me to that group. I've been in the one down the block and looking beyond the junk food labeled as "all natural and good for your" everything else was overpriced and/or in limited quantity.

You don't read the entire thing, get it?  Just the most recent comment.

 

Sorry the result of my Lupus flare causes you such great discomfort.  I'm on the desktop until it just hurts too much to type, that ought to make it so much easier for you.

So...dundundun...don't read it! No one's forcing you, and no poster is obligated to craft their posts to suit you.

 

I usually skip your posts because they're frequently a block of text with no spaces and aren't all that coherent. But I would never have called you out to tell you that and that you should change to suit me. But since you felt it was okay to chide another poster in this thread for their posting style ...

The only negative about the kringles is they're huge ;-) I'm the only one in the household that eats them, and they're he**a big to eat within 2-3 days. I've resorted to freezing half. I went for the pumpkin first as I love All Things Pumpkin, but I actually like the almond best.
