No, that's just Tate's cookies.

It is probably pretty old.

I had a dietician specifically recommend some edamame snacks available there. They tasted like stale trash.

Which is why they end up at TJM. I assume if it is there, nobody wanted it.

There fine, overages. Just check the expiration dates. Honestly, people just looking to nick pick.

I wouldn't be surprised if today, these stores got manufacturers to sell them directly and these are no longer closeouts anymore. Kind of like how the brand outlet stores actually get stuff made specifically for the outlet stores these days and not just the cast-offs from the non-outlet stores.

These stores are no longer closeouts -they are moving vast amounts of product weekly and while yes, you may get something stale or out of date, the vast majority is made for the stores. I buy chocolate covered graham crackers there - the exact same brand is sold under private/inhouse label Trader Joes. I buy dried fruit, nuts, coffee, sweets. They do often have cute wrapped/labeled candies/cookies for major holidays and I'll sometimes pick them up for an easter basket or Christmas stocking or whatever.

I’ve never gotten sick from the chocolates or gummies that I get or even the chips

Some of us have higher standards than not getting sick from food.

If you consider wanting to pay more than you have to as a higher standard, sure. Apparently you do.
