There is only one performer in the entire music industry that can recycle his own previously-released analogies, melodies or beats and still make a hit record; his name is R. Kelly. Late last week, a song entitled Kiss Your Candy swept through online message boards faster than Amy Winehouse's last stay at a rehab facility. The concept of the song is self-explanatory, but just to make things clear; Kells isn't talking about tootsie rolls or dum dums. Following similar songs such as Sex in the Kitchen, Sex Planet and Sweet Tooth, many listeners might be tired of Kelly's food/sex-novelty. However, before you make a judgment call, see if you can go 24 hours without humming the melody to Kiss Your Candy.

|There are 3 new routes on this rock, all near each other facing the old road through South Seas. Does anybody know the route names or ratings for these climbs? I found them all to be really good additions to South Seas. The bolt placements were smart and the climbing enjoyable.

|I felt all three climbs were 5.8 with good rock, but the middle one is poorly bolted and has ground fall potential at the second bolt. 3 stars left, 1 star middle and 2 stars right but all worth doing.

Three young Blues helped England Under-19s record a 1-0 victory over Turkey on Thursday evening.Matthew Pennington made his international debut, gaining 20 minutes from the bench at Telford, while Hallam Hope featured for the final 35 minutes of the friendly.But it was Tyias Browning, recently revelling in a switch from right-back to central defence for Everton Under-21s, that earned the most plaudits.Starting at centre-back in his first England appearance since being a part of the Under-17s in 2010, Browning played the full 90 minutes to keep a clean sheet - with victory sealed courtesy of Callum Chambers' first-half strike.And after the game, Head Coach Noel Blake singled the defender out for praise.He said: "There's plenty of boys away with the Under-21s and we've got a situation where some of these players could be going to the Under-20s World Cup in the summer. "So I've got a scenario where I need to have a little look at one or two in case people aren't available. And I have to say, the likes of Tyias Browning - this is the first time I've worked with him - he did very, very well." Meanwhile, Matthew Kennedy helped inspire Scotland Under-19s to a stunning 3-2 victory over Sweden on Tuesday evening.The 18-year-old winger started the friendly contest at Somerset Park, but the hosts found themselves two goals behind within 47 minutes.The comeback began 10 minutes later when a Kennedy corner was headed into his own net by Sweden skipper Nilsson Lindelof, before goals from debutant Mark Beck and Barrie McKay.Scotland and England Under-19s will come head-to-head in May as part of the qualifying group for this summer's European Championship Finals.

For thirty years I have been associated with non-profits and I am very thankful that my experience led me to this outstanding organization. I feel extremely fortunate to be connected with an organization where literally everyone is passionate about what they do for the general welfare of domesticated animals. Lafayette Animal Aid is an organization that cares for it's cats and dogs on all levels. They receive the very best of medical care, nutrition, exercise, play, social interaction and human love. At this wonderful organization each and every animal has an amazing opportunity to heal and begin its journey to find a forever home. Lafayette Animal Aid adopts its animals to loving homes in its local community and out-of-state. Their adoption process insures that every animal is adopted into homes that are perfect for the needs of that animal. Lafayette Animal Aid is a "no-kill" animal shelter that has served its community well for over three decades. Everyone and anyone is invited to visit this amazing shelter - I promise you will leave with a huge smile on your face. H. Paterson

Church burns after vandals strike
JASPER COUNTY - KFDM News has learned federal, local and state officers are investigating a fire that heavily damaged a church that was vandalized just before flames broke out.
Watch KFDM News and stay with kfdm.com for updates.
Jasper County Sheriff Mitchel Newman tells KFDM News someone called 911 at about 3:45 a.m. Monday to report smoke coming from a metal building that houses Northwest Buna Church of Christ off Highway 96.
First responders arrived at the church, about two miles north of Buna, to find flames burning the building.
Sheriff Newman says someone had vandalized the church and turned over all the pews. They also turned over air conditioning units. There was other damage as well.
The Sheriff says investigators believe the fire began in the church kitchen. It was either deliberate or started as a result of some of the vandalism, Newman said.
The Sheriff told us the church, which is in a large metal building, was heavily damaged but wasn't destroyed.
Agents with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are investigating, as well as the State Fire Marshal's Office and the Jasper County Sheriff's Office.

Melé and Wookie
The Nest
Until Sat Apr 6 2013
Time Out says
Posted: Wed Mar 27 2013
Melé is one of those producers who's infuriatingly talented for such a young age, but we won't hold that against him, because the result of this infuriating talent is a brilliant mashup of deep, bassy house, grime, hip hop and trap. Tonight he co-headlines Shoreditch basement The Nest alongside equally talented garage/R&B producer Wookie. Prepare to see a packed dancefloor all night.

This year, Davao City proudly hosts the 2nd BIMP-EAGA & IMT-GT Trade Fair and Business Leaders' Conference. The event is spearheaded by the Mindanao Development Authority (MinDA), the Philippine Coordinating Office for BIMP-EAGA. It will be held on 22-26 October, 2014 at SMX Convention Center, SM Lanang Premier. The event expects to welcome around 800 business leaders, government officials, traders, and potential investors from the five countries within the ASEAN region.

The city government of Davao is very excited to host the event, in fact, it has declared October 20-26, 2014 as a celebration week for BIMP-EAGA and IMT GT. Mayor Rodrigo Duterte said "the City of Davao welcomes this event as an opportunity, not only for Davaoeños, but also for residents and entrepreneurs in other cities and municipalities in Mindanao, to effectively promote investments and generate trade in their respective jurisdiction."

October 16, 2008 | By Chrystal1331 | 9 answers | Expired: 2218 days ago
my mom and i were discusing how we should receive taxes on our pets. that if you take your pet to the vet for shots and a regular check up at least once a year you should receive 100 dollars in tax refound. but you have to also show record that you have had the animal mkore then a year. also no pigs cows and animals that you were going to kill for profit is aloud to receive the tax tho cus you would already be receivng money for/from that animal. i told her i loved the idea cus it would also help out all the humane societies, too. so how do you feel about the idea?

That would be great. Even though health insurance and tax deductible expense are difficult for humans...so much money goes into the health care of our pets.
A couple of years ago, my cat needed to spend a week in the animal hospital. You know the $$$$'s for this. But I would do all I could for my pets...of course, if able.
The photo is of my gray Kitty that many vets said was a miracle recovery.

I think this is an excellent idea.
Pets are a lot like children, we care for them, take them to the doctors for checkups and medicine.
I would sign :)

Sounds like an interesting idea. If its done though, I think it should be limited as to how many you can claim otherwise I can see it getting out of hand.

I knew a lady that tried to petition a ballot to be able to claim your pets as dependents on your tax refunds here in South Dakota about two years ago. I was all for it considering that I grew up with no less than 15 animals in the house at any given time and I know from experience how expensive an animals medical bills, toys, and other necessities can be in a years time frame. Unfortunately the bill never passed, but I think that you should go for it. It might be a tough battle to get it going, but I think that it's worth the effort. I'm sure that any zootooer would be behind you if you decided to go through with it.

Very interesting idea but not sure our wonderful politicians would allow such a concept. Worth pursuing though...my only other suggestion would be to put a limit on the number of animals you could claim on your taxes or you may see people harboring way too many pets.
Maybe you and your Mom should run for office! You may get some great support!

That is an amazing idea. I definately think if people knew about that and it happened, more people would take their pets to the vet.

I really like that idea. If that happened then people might possibly take better care of there animals. I know several people do take good care of there animals but not everyone.

That is a fantastic idea. People get refunds on themselves and dependants, why not for animals which are dependants as well. There is an article in the news area about NY (I think was the state) trying to make it so that you can put your pets under your company health insurance. Your idea is just as fantastic as that one.

This sound like a great Idea, and I sure would be happy about it since I have 4 dogs and a cat. The best thing to do would be to research it and make a plan to present. Sounds like a great project for you, ask your teachers for help, maybe you could also get credit in school for the project. Good luck.

Trader Joe's - I don't get it.
I know people love TJ's, but I can not see why. One just opened up by me and I was very excited because of all the hype. So I gave it a try. Everything seems to be just processed food with their label on it. I went to buy the non-processed items (veggies and meat) and they were some of the worst quality items that I have seen. I walked out with nothing. Thinking that it may just be a fluke, I went again and came to the same conclusion.
TJ's does not really specialize in fresh, perishable foods. They have a few fresh items to support one-stop-shopping, but they are more about high quality processed foods and shelf stable foods (such as nuts, dried fruits, pasta).
Give it another try, but reset your expectations about buying fresh meats and produce. Check out their frozen items (including frozen fish and meat, fruits, etc), olive oil, pasta, cereals, nuts, etc.0
I agree with your assessment. I used to think TJ's was pretty useful... until I found WF. Now I cook 6nights/week with barely a processed item on the menu.0
re: salvatoregianpaolo
Yeah, I have a similar story. I used to do all my shopping at Trader Joe's until I began cooking for real at home. I used to be excited when a new new frozen entree would appear (again, minimally processed, high quality) but nonetheless, I find myself now staring at their newest offerings like frozen coq au vin, and think to myself "hm, I can probably make that better and cheaper". So I pass.
I still do shop there, but not exclusively. By the way, I do "spot shopping" at Whole Foods but overall I find it to be a bourgeois yuppie, expensive experience. I buy chicken from a local poulterer and beef from a local butcher. Other stuff like produce I tend to buy from the Korean markets, which have a great selection of affordably priced organics.
Mr Taster0
There are only two items I found in TJ's worth a return trip.....
Chocolate Covered Dried Cherries and their TJ's Ice Cream in quarts for 4 Bucks.
Their packaging is eye catching....but their quality is fair, to good, at best.0
I actively avoid fruits, vegetables and bread at TJs. I've brought home far too many of these items only to find them moldy, or for them to become moldy within a day or two. Where these things are stored, and under what conditions, one can only imagine.
That said, their cheese and alcohol selections are good and well-priced.0
It's gotten better. At one time, TJ seemed to have nothing that needed cooking. Eventually, they got chicken and fish. You can buy individual pieces of fruit now. You used to have to buy an entire bag. You couldn't even buy an individual avocado. They came too-many-for-me-to-the-package, in what they called a "guacamole kit" that included a jalapeno, a lime, and an onion IIRC. I live alone. I never eat more than a single avocado, and it's not something that keeps.
I have a friend who likes to shop for food, but not to cook. He loves TJ.
I have found some things I like at TJ's, though. Their English Breakfast tea makes the best-tasting iced tea (the competition: Twinings Ceylon, Luzianne), and costs significantly less per glass. They have an excellent extra-extra-sharp cheddar that makes the best grilled cheese sandwiches. It's $5.99/lb. I like some of their breads, though I'm never quite sure I'm buying the same thing I did last time I was there.
Their "good" cheese section looks skanky, mostly precut, and wrapped in "cheese sweat" packaging in somewhere like Jersey City.
It's not a place I can depend on. I wanted dried beans last week. They just don't sell them. Too unadulterated, I guess.
If TJ were to drop off the face of the earth, I wouldn't miss it except for the tea. But I end up going there with this friend, so I buy what I can, and look for beans, and most other "real" food, elsewhere.0
I think they're great for tofu and cheese. Their jarred marinara is solid for when I'm feeling lazy. I love the roasted red peppers, which are a fraction of the price of anywhere else. Also, their flower department is pretty good and super reasonable.
Their milk always goes bad a few days before the expiration date.0
re: invinotheresverde
Not sure why you would go to TJ for tofu. Aren't there any Asian grocers near you?0
re: huiray
I don't really go there to get anything healthy, except for brown rice. Their prices for brown rice are so much better than Whole Foods. But yes, I really like to get fresh items from WF and do most of my food shopping there (due to lack of car and real supermarkets near my apartment). Before I moved to my current place, the Trader Joe's was the closest (about a mile, walking) grocery store to me, and that was the worst five months of food in my life - mostly processed food and junk.
I do like TJ's, but I don't go there expecting to buy healthy stuff, and I find a lot of the prices to be only 10 cents or so less than WF, which is so much closer that I'd rather pay that extra few cents (and am grateful that I can afford to do so!). I fear that if I ever get a car in my current city, that I'd be tempted just to buy a whole boatload of the frozen/prepared junk foods at TJ's and my eating would REALLY go down the hole moreso than it already is! :o)
At the same time, if you can't really afford to eat out every now and then and want a special treat of some kind sometimes, I can really see how a place like TJ's can be a great treasure trove for a foodlover.0
You really need to know what to buy there and not consider it a substitute for your regular grocery store. I never buy the bread or veggies and only buy a few dairy products. I buy some quick frozen meals for lunch, I like their jarred goods (olive oil, condiments, sauces,etc.). There are some great deals on everyday wines and flowers. The nut selection is terrific and prices are great on all of those things. At my store, the crackers and chips section is huge and really interesting.0
About the only thing there that I have picked up and liked is their packaged cooked pork carnitas. Not bad and it is convenient. Nothing else, really, that grabs me particularly and that I can't get elsewhere in some form. Stuff like their bottled curry sauces etc I picked up after a friend talked fondly about them - but, well, they're still sitting in my cupboard. Their frozen various fish types in sauce ready-for-panfrying or whatever -- I've tried a few, MEH to ick. Tried one of their frozen apple strudel - baking required - it was pretty bad.
Never been drawn to go to the ones in my area more than a handful of times. Oh, screaming kids with weirdly dressed/trash-dressed parents seen almost everytime (at least on those times I went), or kids who seemed out of control and/or almost-climbing-the-shelves...0
I like TJ's.
I find their prices on organic stuff to be cheaper than elsewhere.
Mentioned above, the jarred pasta sauce is good in a pinch.
And I too buy some of the frozen foods-the margherita pizza, chicken teriyaki.....not the best but very convenient and, in most cases, better than what I would eat if I grabbed take out.
I do not buy meat or produce there.0
I HATED Trader Joe's the first time I went there. Third or fourth time around, I kinda came around to the idea. The one by me has some reasonably good produce, so I will on occasion buy organic fruit or carrots there, but not often. I buy English muffins, cheese, olive oil, jarred tomato sauce, frozen foods and snacks there. I don't have a lot of time to cook, so the conveniences are great. But TJ's is right next to WF by me. I hit TJ's and then go to WF afterwards. And I almost never walk into TJ's with a list - it will just frustrate me.0
For awhile I bought cheese there and coffee. I thought the coffee was good and priced reasonably. I also liked buying the sliced almonds for use in cooking, which are/were reasonably priced. I found Fage there several years ago and requested my grocer begin carrying it, which it did. I also found reasonably priced coffee at the grocer and there went my reasons for shopping at TJ.
The wine is supposed to be very good and priced right. Almost everything else is either too high in carbs or fat for the way I eat.0
re: sueatmo
Many people prefer TJ's own (and cheaper) brand of Greek yogurt to Fage. Have you compared the them?0
re: greygarious
I have. I like Fage better, but TJ's is pretty good, too.0
re: small h
Yup, Total is significantly better than TJ's. It's somehow richer, creamer, more full bodied. Though for the significant price difference, I'm usually willing to compromise.
Mr Taster0
I like Three Buck Chuck--great to use for a cooking wine--and their house EVOO. I've tried a few of their prepared entrees which were okay. The main thing I hate about TJ's is the stores are horribly laid out and I have NEVER been to any store where some one didn't ram me with their cart because they were too busy trying to get little Beckett or Emily's attention. The TJ's in the Richmond area isn't convenient to where I live so on the rare occasions I go it's to the one in Virginia Beach since it's right across the street from where we stay. Between Elwood Thompson's (local organic store), my co-op and Kroger I'm pretty well-covered, I'll leave TJ's to the yuppies and their pups.0
re: MandalayVA
re: erikschwarz
The WF in Richmond is literally located within three minutes' walking distance of the TJ's. It's pretty big, though, so I can avoid the backups.0
re: MandalayVA
I've begun to think that the two companies deliberately choose locations close to each other. Or do you think it's just TJ's piggybacking off of WF, knowing that there are a lot of people that go there with pricetag fatigue?0
re: Heatherb
I've been to WFs in various areas and the set in Richmond, which are really in the Short Pump suburb about twenty miles outside the city, are by far the closest I've ever seen the two stores together. TJ seems to have a hold in southern Virginia while WF has the northern part (only a couple of cities in Virginia other than Richmond have both). There might be a WF coming to the Carytown section of Richmond and there's been a big controversy about it because that's considered Richmond's quaint little shopping area. Elwood Thompson's is located there and I have no doubt that if WF came in it would deal them a blow, possibly fatal.0
re: MandalayVA
There's over 20 Trader Joe's in the DC Metro area, so I don't think Whole Foods has anything over TJ's in NoVa.0
re: yfunk3
But like I said, even those NoVa towns who have both don't have them on top of each other like Short Pump does. And south and east of Richmond you'll find NO WF stores but plenty of TJ stores. I find it hilarious that Newport News got a TJ's before Virginia Beach--the largest city in Virginia population-wise--did.0
re: MandalayVA
It's funny in Jersey. I know of two Whole Foods and two TJ's within an hour of me, and both are literally down the street from each other or across the street. I guess the demographics are more responsible for it than anything else.0
re: Heatherb
same here. they're both in the shittiest part of town, and people walk through broken glass to get to both.0
re: erikschwarz
The Whole Foods I patronize seems to attract a pretty good cross section of suburbia. It isn't located close to a TJ either.
I agree about the layout of TJ. I think it is a fun store, but I am moving away from prepared foods.
Most of their stuff is high fat, as well.0
What Trader Joes IS:
*Great packaged items with terrific ingredients (I can actually read the ingredients and be happy for a change, unlike the Safeway option)
*Excellent quality at terrific prices. And, for that matter, a good alternative to Whole Paycheck (I mean Foods) which gouges you just because you want decent ingredients.
*Great alcohol selection at lower prices (it's an issue for wineries to sell to TJs because of their pricing policy, they can undercut other wine shops etc.)
*Good dairy (in my area they get their milk from Clover, which costs a lot more if I buy it under the Clover brand) including a terrific cheese selection
What Trader Joes ISN'T:
*The place for produce. I buy my bagged salad greens and a few occasional items (bananas, potatoes) there, but nothing else.
*A one stop shop. You have to stop elsewhere. Sometimes they try to be one-stop, but IMHO I don't think they should even bother with produce or with personal goods (tissue papers, etc).
For me this means I shop at TJs regularly but I also have a local produce store I go to as well as a local store (I'm in the North Bay so it is Olivers Market), and when desperate for something I cringe as I go into Safeway. I do make occasional stops at Whole Paycheck, but I can't abide their pricing policies, and Olivers offers some of the same products but more reasonably priced.0
re: chowtogo
+1, chowtogo0
I was used to shopping at TJ for 10 years, then moved to a town without one, the nearest a hundred miles away, so I've learned to shop wisely on my "Trader Joe's run" every few months. I stock up on frozen dishes unique to them (e.g. masala burgers), hard-to-find nonperishables (like unsalted nuts), and items I may be able to get locally but can buy at TJ for considerably less ("chickenless strips" @ $2.99, same as Morningstar's frozen product at my local supermarket for around $5.50). But while I've learned to do without when I use things up, what usually motivates my trips are an item that nobody's mentioned: vitamins. Great prices on vitamins!0
I didn't like Trader Joe's at first, but it's grown on me for sure.
Their Greek Olive oil is a great tasting oil for a great price.
Their blue can tuna solid albacore packed in water is excellent. It's $1.48 a can, compares to the solid white albacore BB brand that is over 2.00 a can.
I buy my cheese there and especially the (Cave) Gruyere, it's affordable and tastes great.
Their Greek yogurt, eggs, orange juice, all excellent.
The chicken meatballs in the refrigerator section are great, when I am not in the mood to make them myself.
The nuts, chocolates, are all top quality, with much cheaper prices than my grocery store.
I also buy their whole grain mustard, white balsamic vinegar and Ginger Mango Chutney. (almost half the price of Major Greys)
I can't do my grocery shopping at Trader Joe's, but do stop by every once in awhile. There are 3 of them in my neighboring towns and they are convenient for me.0
re: mcel215
I almost bought the mango chutney instead of Major Grey's, but the "locust" ingredient kind of scared me off. Is that still in there?0
re: LaPomme
One of the ingredients listed is locust bean gum. Here is what wiki says about it:
And I just found a new source of the Mango Ginger Chutney, that's even a bit cheaper for me. My local Indian Grocer, so guess I'll let you decide if it's safe to eat. I have used about three jars of TJ's and never got any weird sides effects. ;)0
re: mcel215
What a relief! I thought it was some kind of insect extract. Ha!0
As others have said, TJs is good for pantry items. I stock up monthly on coffee, oatmeal, olive oil, capers, crackers, breadcrumbs... never the meats or produce though. Good for frozen edamame too. Lots of non-proessed options.0
None of the hype on CH is about the nonprocessed items, except maybe the kosher turkeys being sold at half the price of Kosher turkeys elsewhere. Almost every item TJs sells is also sold similarly elsewhere.
It has been mentioned more than once, and should be generally understood, that floral, bakery. fruit/vegetable and dairy items are locally sourced and not the same nationwide.
The hype on CH is that overall, prices are better for pantry items sold under the "Trader XXX" name...Trader Darwin for vitamins, Trader Jose for Mexican items, Trader Giuseppe for Italian items, Trader Josef for German items...The fruits, vegetables bakery and dairy items have great prices, but you have to check for freshness /dates. I do go to TJs once a week, but also shop elsewhere. I know prices and TJs, even though not sale prices, TJs has great ones.0
re: Cathy
and they have the best german imports in america.0
re: Chowrin
What in particular? Haven't noticed any German stuff in our TJs.0
re: buttertart
The frozen apple strudels are made in Germany. There are other items in the frozen section, but I can't thinkof any right now...it's Monday.
There is a beer (or beers sold in summer/Autumn) with Trader Josef name on it and I have seen Baker Josef items -Bagels and flour.0
re: Cathy
Thanks. I'll keep an eye open. Was hoping for mustards, etc.0
re: buttertart
There had been, but it's been decades...0
re: Cathy
makes sense, they're owned by a German food corporation.0
I consider TJ to be the 2nd best grocery chain in the area (say, 1 hour drive), second only to WH. The top reason for that is trust. Their operation is solid and proven over the years. Unlike most places, they're very careful about their selection and ingredients.
I don't recall ever coming across (let alone purchase) any wilted or spoiled item from either TJ (or WH). A few weeks ago I got some brussels sprout stalks from TJ. Was it farmer's market fresh? No, but it was in fine condition and more than acceptable.
Overall, I'm very skeptical of the criticism here, especially consider that dynastar didn't even buy anything. Good produce doesn't always look perfect and I don't know how you can tell that meat is of awful quality without actually tasting the thing (Minus the obvious like it being too old and marbling).0

There are obviously regional differences and differences between stores even in the same area. I've bought items from TJ's (both unprepared meats and frozen/prepared foods such as hummus) which had clearly been stored improperly or kept too long on the shelves and had gone off. Their good return policy meant that I was able to recoup some of my money and notify the manager of off product on the shelves, but as I don't have regular access to a car, most of the time I'm left to just suck up the loss of both money and product.0
re: ediblover
Do you mean W H Lung Cash & Carry?
If not,
Mr Taster0
The first 2 times I went to TJ's I walked out empty-handed and confused as to why it is a favorite of many on these boards. So I went back again and now it has become my source for several pantry staples (at prices better than reg. supermarkets) inc. McCann's steel cut oats, Bob's Red Mill flax seed meal, saffron and extra virgin olve oil (esp. the California Estate).
I agree that their dairy products seem to go off quickly so I don't bother w/ the milk or eggs. They do carry Kerry Gold butter at a much better price than I have seen elsewhere.
Also v. good corn tortillas and the thick cut bread is great for french toast.
I don't buy meat, produce, packaged or frozen (except the salmon which I like) from TJ's so I can't comment on them.
Weird store layout is true but great customer service and return policy.0
iI used to be (6 years ago or so) a Trader Joe's devotee but find myself going there much, much less now that I don't eat much in the way of processed foods (prepared sauces, frozen meals, etc.). Staples I will stop by for include saffron, oils, hand soap and shampoo/conditioner, Greek yogurt (cheapest price around in my area), and coffee beans. I also like their flax seed tortilla chips and pretzel thins. I find myself going there maybe three times a year these days.0
Trader Joe's used to have a much better selection of cheese' years ago, It had something to do with import tarrifs imposed that resulted in the selection of quality cheese' being reduced, that said they do ocassionally have some good wine buys. Their produce is horrible and many of the customers I see buying prepackaged food seem to be yuppie mothers that either dont know how to cook or are too lazy to learn.0
re: malibumike
So true about the yuppie mothers. I had a co-worker give me a "recipe" for orange chicken once, that consisted of TJ's frozen orange chicken re-heated and mixed with their frozen, bagged rice. I know another woman who brags that she doesn't eat processed foods, and yet boasts about "outsourcing" her cooking to Trader Joe's. Methinks she doesn't understand what "processed" really means.0
re: LaPomme
trader joe's serves restaurant cuisine. many restaurants just get stuff out of the freezer and deepfry it. and tj's is cheaper.0
I have a Trader Joe's about a block away from me... only go there for specific things. I like their cheeses, inexpensive wines, their prosciutto (smaller package, the stuff in the larger one is terrible.) Got some tomatoes there a week ago that actually had great flavor! Some of their soups are good - the chicken with barley especially. and I like their grilled lemon chicken. Haven't been impressed with the few frozen or prepackaged meals I've tried. Tend to stop in their when I don't feel like cooking - will pick up some soup or the chicken and some greens for have a salad.0
it's a terrible excuse for a grocery store, full of processed food for people who think that reheating equals cooking. terrible quality. i visited one when it first opened up in my area and bought some soap and some dead-nasty snacky thing i later threw away. walked around the whole store and nothing was fit to buy. all of the sad-looking produce was in a little open cooler smaller than a corner bodega's, and shrinkwrapped in layers of plastic. prices higher than the area co-ops. attracts rude people. no local products. crappy meat. everything frozen, or stale. no idea how they expect to compete with existing groceries in this area-- oh yeah, they've scaled back their expansion plans here. don't diss this abominable chain on the chowhound boards though, or you'll get piled on by all the folks who think it's the bees knees. sad.0
re: soupkitten
Soupkitten, I used to be a great deal more enamored by Trader Joe's than I am now, but I think your assessment is needlessly harsh.
I essentially lost my addiction to TJ's once I started cooking seriously for myself. I started to realize that my own cooking was a lot tastier than their reheatable frozen entrees. For example, I just saw they have a new coq au vin frozen entree. Perhaps 5 years ago, I would have snapped it up in a second. Now that I make my own coq au vin, I see the package in the freezer case, say to myself "oh, that's interesting", and move on.
However, it's important not to lose sight of the fact of the history and context of TJ's within the wider world of American supermarkets. Virtually all of the processed TJ foods you're dismissing out of hand are of much poorer quality at a regular supermarket. For example, TJ doesn't sell low quality Banquet brand frozen salisbury steak dinners with ingredient lists that read like a chemistry book. That's a really important distinction. And while a TJ's frozen coq au vin will cost more than a $1.50 frozen Banquet dinner, it costs MUCH less than a comparable, minimally processed entree at a place like Whole Foods. That's a really important distinction too. TJ's is in the unusual position of competing with several totally different categories of markets... ordinary supermarkets, fancy/expensive supermarkets, health food stores, and corner grocery/liquor shops. And where TJ competes directly, their prices are almost always not just lower, but significantly lower than their "mainstream" competition, and that absolutely makes them a unique and valuable resource to consumers.
Their wine prices are categorically lower than virtually anywhere else (including winery tasting room prices). Their pantry staples are extremely well priced (organic sugar, organic milk, various TJ branded (and national branded) crackers are lower at TJ's by as much as 50%. And their store band items (like the TJ's Triscuits) tend to be of equal or even higher quality than the national brands.
I'm not disputing your assertion that TJ's sells some items of questionable quality, primarily in the bakery and produce departments. And they've certainly got their share of flavorless, gummy, supermarket cheese (although they do have some interesting ones as well, and for an outstandingly good price compared to "fancy" supermarket prices). And sometimes I've seen some questionable meat (however, their organic chicken is extremely well priced, much better than comparable fancy/healthy grocers).
So it's really as others have said here. You have to pick and choose at TJ's. Is TJ's the answer to your grocery prayers? Of course not. Nobody is claiming that. But there absolutely are phenomenal values and some very interesting, unique items for very low prices. I respect them for turning the "minimally processed/healthy/organic = expensive" paradigm on its head. It is really unfair to dismiss the whole store concept and philosophy out of hand based on your minimal exposure. They've done a lot of good for the mainstream consumer and they're fighting a good fight.

re: Mr Taster
Off the main topic, so excuse me, but.........."Their wine prices are categorically lower than virtually anywhere else (including winery tasting room prices)."
Interesting comment. My experience has always been that winery tasting room prices can be matched or beaten at just about any wine retailer in the LA area. That's the reason that many smaller production CA wineries don't want to sell their wine to retailers. Once it's out in the retail arena their winery pricing is too easily undercut. Many will sell only to restaurants for that very reason.
That said, I agree about TJs pricing in general but I did find our daily drinker Hogue Washington Chard regularly selling at Total Wine & More for $5.99, when it's $6.99 at TJs and $8.99 at BevMo.0
re: Midlife
Definitely off the main topic, but I'll clarify.
I am alluding to one specific incident when my inlaws were visiting from Taiwan and we took them to the Santa Ynez valley for a little round of wine tasting.
Her mother fell in love with one particular wine (don't remember which one) and we subsequently found it at Trader Joe's for about half the price. We were both shocked and amazed that a retailer could sell it for so much less. I never bothered to price it out anywhere else (never heard of "Total Wine & More") as I don't drink a lot of alcohol.
The places where I usually see (and occasionally buy) wine is TJs, World Market, BevMo (when I feel like being gouged), and Vendome. And if I'm desperate with no other options, Ralphs/Vons etc.
Mr Taster0
re: soupkitten
I cook - not reheat - virtually all my meals. I have been a TJ's devotee since they opened in the Boston suburbs a decade or so ago. I shop there for staples every 3 months or so, with other occasional stops for a few items. My most recent stock-up trip had the highest total so far, ($208) because of the extra holiday items, like their excellent frozen puff pastry sheets. The rest included dried fruits and nuts (better in quality and price than any conventional supermarket), whole grain crackers, vinegars, jams, imported cheddar, butter, eggs, dog biscuits (much superior to national brands), and coffee. Also excellent quality, and very reasonably priced: all-butter palmier cookies, frozen pear-frangipane tart, frozen chocolate croissants, frozen pithiviers.
The mind boggles when people who have only tried a couple of items, if any, condemn this chain. And it's not only Chowhounds who like TJ's. They are regularly among the top supermarket chains in nationwide surveys.0
re: greygarious
They even have reasonably good Canadian cheddar, which you almost never see even in NYC. For that and their nuts and chocolate, I hope they prosper.0
re: soupkitten
My TJ's isn't like that at all. There isn't a lot for me there, but it is a pleasant place. I do enjoy looking at their cheeses. I discovered Fage yogurt there! Most people don't have access to a food co op, by the way.0
re: sueatmo
well my post was deleted. it's pretty clear that TJ's is a sacred cow and that criticizing the chain or its products is seen as some sort of blasphemy around here. matches my experience in other threads. i am disinclined to participate further, but i'd like to know why people on this thread think that other folks should go to a bad store if they already have access to many good stores. i doubt that you would tell someone to drive past 20 good mexican restaurants to get to a taco bell "because it's so cheap, everything is so cheap, and some people don't have access to good mexican restaurants, so how can you possibly justify *not* going to taco bell and trying everything on the menu-- how can you possibly consider going to a good mexican restaurant instead?"
also that repackaged horizon factory farm "organic" milk is somehow a completely different product, just because it's purchased at TJ's, and suddenly better than the local grass-fed organic milk? or shipped-frozen imported kerrygold butter at a buck more than the higher quality local creamery never-frozen butter? why should people who live in the local foods capitol of the country be excited to pay more for an imported product that isn't as good as the easily accessed local brand? btw WFM has a difficult time competing with the regular local grocery retailers here, and the co-ops whup WFM's butt off the map. i am sure that some consumers and communities are pleased when a wal-mart or TJ's opens near them, and just as sure that other communities don't want them.
so many people assume that people don't like TJ's because there is something they don't *get* about the store. there is nothing to *get,* it just doesn't measure up to the decent standards of the 7-10 existing chain grocery stores in many areas. that's before the co-ops and the independents even enter the picture. when a store is <50th in quality in any area, folks probably won't go out of their way to go there (unless they live off cheap frozen dinners and cheap booze). okay done repeating myself now.0
re: soupkitten
The argument you're presenting is the locavore one (with a touch of pro-small business). That's more of a political criticism than one of food.0
re: ediblover
what food? TJ's is not so much a grocery store as it is a snack & chip aisle with a hefty freezer section full of processed prepared-food frozen meals, blown up to fit inside a liquor warehouse. it's not as if it's possible to shop there for produce or cooking ingredients. the staple-type products they do sell such as the horizon milks are mass produced industrial products which are uninteresting, untasty, and inferior. folks can and do do better getting real actual food products at super target, super kmart and wal-mart. . . if you want to toot TJ's horn as a great cheap lq store or a great place to buy 17 kinds of cheezy poofs, please go ahead-- as far as i'm concerned it isn't a valid grocery store, any more than a super america or kwik-e-mart is.0
re: soupkitten
>> can and do do better getting real actual food products at super target, super kmart and wal-mart
It seems to me that the stores you mention above are the ones selling multiple varieties of cheezy poofs. TJ's sells one :)
I would honestly love to hear specific examples of "real actual foods" you'd prefer to buy from super k-mart over TJs. We've all agreed that produce is bad at TJs, so let's cross that off the list straight away.
Mr Taster0
re: Mr Taster
heh heh. i haven't had super-k as one of two grocery store options in 15 years or so, in another state. there aren't any that i know of in my area-- doubt very much that super-ks could compete with super-target in the msp area (target is based here), for that type (total one-stop, pick up milk&eggs, bedsheets and golf balls) shopping demographic. there is no reason nowadays for me to be doing actual grocery shopping at a super k or super target, but some people do, because some people have good access to these stores and poor access to others. there is a super target in the burbs that i have bought fresh produce and some miscellaneous groceries from in a pinch. i remember specifically being very pleased with the high quality and freshness of the bunched broccoli.
i meant "cheezy poofs" in the vague sense of the word, as snack junk-- wasabi poofs, mixed nut poofs, flax enhanced poofs, whatever. i know that TJ's limits its offerings to its own house brands, and will only offer the one kind/brand, though in a multitude of flavors and riffs, while the average decent grocery store that is focused on non-house brand selection is more likely to offer 3-4 different kinds/brands of actual cheezy poofs, ditto butter, ditto canned beans, ditto add-water boxed dinner.0
re: soupkitten
Last time I was there I picked up some greens, milk and snacks. I was satisfied with the purchases. Now, if you knew of a national chain/brand that carries dark chocolate peanut butter cups that are better and at a similar price, I'd love to know about them (so I can get and plan to eat them over the week, only to make them disappear in 2 days). But, if TJ is among the best available, then buying from there would make it a smart purchase, no?
Last month I drove for over an hour and spent over $80 for pizza (I was alone, since most people are more sensible than me). I liked it. I also like the local Dominoes. Just because one place had a vastly superior product doesn't make the other one, with its chain mentality, inferior methods and processed ingredients, awful. Both, for what they respectively are, are good in my book.0
re: ediblover
I was with you until you compared TJ's with Domino's. Holy cow, what a buzzkill!
Mr Taster0
Wow, a lot of feisty 'tudes here about a store. Most folks I know go there for special items and maybe fill in around the edges with other stuff. It's nowhere close to being my produce store (HMart), but I will grab a bag of blood oranges or fill an immediate need there from time to time. I've been to TJ's in six states on both coasts and in Minnesota and have never seen a bodega-sized contained for produce.
For us, there's no real emotion about it, it simply fills a need. Our house is a hub for teenagers and we are also soda free. The TJ's juices will satisfy the horde and my strapping son packs the tropical carrot juice on athletic and school trips. Likewise, I haven't found anything to compare to the "fruit floe" frozen bars. We also stock up on the yogurts.
Then we pick around for things like the peri-peri peppers and other bottled and can stuff that doesn't show up elsewhere, including WF.
Yeah, it's not a go-to spot for "special" cheeses either but their selections cover a lot of day-to-day needs. Some chocolates and cereals are solid, although I miss those huge broken bricks from Ghiradelli.0
All the other 'hounds have said everything I wanted to say for me... but I wanted to add my lactose-intolerant husband haven't found goat milk AND goat milk yogurt anywhere cheaper than TJs in NYC and for that he is very, very thankful.0
I like the smoked salmon from TJs. Maybe I could get it from a local purveyor but the version at TJs is pretty good. Is there anything wrong with that?0
I concur with the majority of the opinions regarding TJ's...more hype than anything else. I still prefer to find a well stocked Asian food market where the produce and prices are consistently good! If one is looking for organically grown /produced, go to WF or a local natural grocers!0
We've had to remove a number of angry responses from this thread, and the discussion as a whole is increasingly unfriendly. We're going to lock this topic now.0

Guillermo del Toro Confirms DARK UNIVERSE Project with DC Comics
Guillermo Del Toro has confirmed to IGN that he is, in fact, working on the upcoming DARK UNIVERSE project with DC Comics. The ensemble film, in the vein of THE AVENGERS, would feature many of the supernatural heroes fans have come to love.
"I'm writing the outline and we're already in talks with a writer," he said in a video interview. "...People are probably going to be happy with who we have chosen - he accepted. I've been courting this writer, who I think is the perfect guy for this job. We're doing it. Hopefully it will happen."
del Toro goes on to explain that DARK UNIVERSE has been in development prior to THE AVENGER's release, and isn't just a capitalization on the now lucrative ensemble-hero structure.
"[DC COMICS] were already galvanized to launch 'Justice League' and they were galvanized to make their universe cohesive... They are really, really, with 'Superman', very, very confident with what they have. They are now feeling they have two pillars: Batman and Superman."
He goes on to comment on the studio's "foundation" to build upon the two legendary heroes, and has no desire to abandon them any time soon.
Del Toro has made a name for himself in the film industry due to his work on such movies as HELLBOY, PAN'S LABYRINTH, and MIMIC. His next film, PACIFIC RIM, starring Idris Elba, Charlie Hunnam, Rinko Kikuchi, Charlie Day and DIEGO KLATTENHOFF, will arrive in theaters on July 12, 2013.

Europa League Round of 32: Players to watch - originally posted on Soccerlens.com Final preparations are underway for the second leg of the Europa League Round of 32 matches. Here are the players to watch in each of the 32 teams participating: Liverpool v Zenit St. Petersburg Liverpool: Luis Suarez The unpredictable Uruguay international has been in prime form this season in the Premier League. Rested for much of the Europa League group stage, Suarez should be on full power as Liverpool eye their only opportunity for silverware this season. Zenit: Danny Disappointed to drop out of the Champions League, Zenit's fortunes might have been different had their skipper been around for the duration of the group stage. The Portuguese playmaker only started the last two fixtures after recovering from a long-term injury. He found the net in both the matches – against Malaga and AC Milan.

Check these out, too...
I really like this guy I'm going out with…the only problem is we've never met! I know he's not a total creep because he's friends with my BFF.
Most of my friends think it's weird that I've never even met him. Is it weird? I don't know what to do now.
I'm so happy to hear you've found a great guy. Sure, your relationship may be a bit unconventional, but that doesn't mean you can't make it work.
Your friends are right that you should meet your BF. To have a good relationship, you need to make sure that you're comfy hangin' out in person, too. Next time you talk, ask him if he wants to go to the movies or grab dinner over the weekend. It can be kinda hard asking a guy on a date, but the good news is—you already know he's totally into you! Ease the awkwardness the first time around by asking your dude out on a group date. This way you'll be surrounded by friends if you feel weird at any point.
If you and your BF have been getting along really well over the phone, IM and texts, chances are, you'll get along face-to-face, too. It may be a li'l strange at first (especially if you're super-shy!), but just relax and things will ease up. This is the same guy you've been talking to all along, so there's no need to worry. Just be yourself and have fun!
If things don't go quite as you expected after a few dates, then it might be time to reevaluate. Sometimes guys and gals get along really well virtually, but lack some of that special chemistry in person. If that's the case, just let him know that you love chatting with him, but you're just not feeling that spark. If you're sweet about it, I'm sure he'll understand.
Good luck, girl! I hope things work out for you and your BF!
