Most of our stuff comes from TJs but I love their organic Raisinbran cereals with pure cane sugar and not the crappy corn syrup or other chemicals.

TJ's corn chips (like fritos scoops) are my kryptonite right now. They're far less greasy and have a better corn taste than fritos.

That is all. Carry on.

These get my vote:

--The pork carnitas (look in the deli section near the sliced meats). These are amazing!
--Frozen corn. Really sweet and good.
--Their frozen veggies and berries are really good in general.
--Peanut butter
--Frozen appetizers
--Raw, tail-on shrimp
--They have a great wine selection (don't know if this applies in Texas)
--TJ house brand hand soaps and lotions
--TJ brand olive oil
--Sundried tomatoes in oil
--Chicken broth
--At the holidays, they have a huge selection of treats and nibbles.

One thing to look out for...I have never had good luck with their cheeses. They seem to go mouldy within a week. I don't know if it's because of the way they package things, or what. But TJ's will take anything back, so if you experience this save the wrapper with the pull date and get a refund.

I love TJ's and am so happy to see that they have opened in Texas in time for my move to the Big D in November! I can't wait to join y'all there! <3

Kung Pao chicken in the freezer section along with the jasmine rice (in freezer section as well), quick meal for 2!

Default Their vegetable nests!

My 10 year old fussy son is obsessed with them. They have kale and all sorts of good veggies in a tempura batter. Taste a bit like onion rings but really good with the dipping sauce. He can go through a whole package himself!

Also, black bean soup made with their organic black beans, black bean soup puree and a pkg of chimichurri rice in the frozen food section. Mix it all together and it's a great quick meal when the temps drop a bit. Tasted it there and it was a winner!
