Heartbreaking. Why do they do this if it’s selling well?

TJ’s palak paneer was my all time favorite. It was the only reason I went to the store. I can’t get over it.


I discovered today that they have stopped carrying white whole wheat flour. Why do they do this?

My grandmother would take me to one as a kid where she lived in Brooklyn and I’d get belly lox on a bialy and she’d get a tongue sandwich (never tried it but I’ll admit it smelled good). We would then split a black and white cookie down the middle. I liked vanilla and she liked chocolate so it was perfect. A lot of them have closed as tastes have changed and younger generations don’t want to take them over. Who’s eating tongue, borscht, matzo ball soup, derma, stuffed cabbages, kugel etc anymore.


Jews eat these things still of course. There aren’t good delis in the DC area but they’re alive and well in NYC.


Omg yes. The black and white cookies in this area have universally been terribly disappointing


The entenman ones from the grocery store are surprisingly good. Mostly when I get the bakery ones around here I think “I should have just gotten the entenmans “


Baked by Yael has excellent black and whites.

Thought of another:

Campbell’s Soup made a gazpacho soup that was delicious and was served cold or room temperature. Haven’t seen this since the late 80s.

We went to TCBY in Atlanta where I grew up. We went to one last summer in Charleston, in the Mt Pleasant area. They are still around!

This shows there's one in Colombia MD.

Tab. And caffeine free diet Pepsi, which seems to have disappeared during the pandemic.

Oh no! Are they truly gone? I’ve been looking for them since before Christmas! Bummer.
