Do you buy food from TJ Max or Homegoods- are they manufacturer rejects?

I often get good coffee there.

As long as it's not expired why not

I’m sorry that you don’t know what good coffee is.

So why won't you just check the expiration date on those items? seems like an easy fix if you'll "eat anything".

Because I shop for food at a grocery store not a bargain basement clothing store. Like a normal person.

Who told you?


Common sense.

Their items are actually good. I was a little scared at first. You can find items from other countries that don't have all of the bad ingredients in it. Their spices are great and fresh! I bought ground cinnamon one year and it was fresher than any cinnamon I've ever bought at the grocery store.

How do you know if it is fresh?

Some of you are such snobs! Do you shop at World Market?

Anyway, I buy: tea, k pods for coffee (Starbucks, white mountain, dunkin), spices, vinegar, candy, and sometimes chips. Never ever had a problem.

I get Italian brand pods that fit Nespresso machines. I have gotten potato chips and olive oil. Everything was in date and tasted good.

One day you'll learn that normal people aren't rich.

Their food always tasted stale to me the few times I bought it, so I stopped. The only food I do buy there are the name-brand salted chocolate caramels that ny kid like. I can’t remember the name, but I do check the date to make sure they’re not stale.

PP here, I think it’s the Sanders chocolates that I buy there. Those are the only food I’ve bought there that tasted good.

That cinnamon was probably from China and had all kinds of artificial additives in it to make you think it was so “fresh”.
