Our Spicy Jalapeño Chicken Sausages employ medium-hot jalapeño peppers, rather than the typical Italian seasonings, to produce a fiery bite. Grill them alongside brightly-colored bell peppers and sliced onions, sauté and serve with scrambled eggs & toast, or throw them under the broiler with buttered Brioche Hot Dog Buns for a quick, satisfying meal on a busy weeknight.

Italian Linguine
$0.99/1 Lb
Kosher
Our Italian Linguine is made with one simple ingredient: durum wheat semolina. We don’t believe that a simple macaroni product that’s been produced for centuries should require a laundry list of added ingredients to achieve tasty results. And let’s get one thing clear: Trader Joe’s Italian Linguine is a tasty product. It can be served with just a little olive oil, but becomes especially tasty when traditionally plated with a simple pesto to coat each elliptical noodle as you spin a bit onto your fork. Other common taste-elavating options include using tomato-based sauces or a light sauce with a seafood addition - think salmon, cod, or shrimp. In as little as 7 to 8 minutes of passively boiling pasta, you can have yourself a plate of Italian Linguine noodles, toothsomely al dente, of course, and you’ll be sending your tastebuds on a flavorful flight 6,000 miles across the Atlantic to our favorite boot shaped nation!

These are the prices at Bailey's Crossroads, Falls Church, VA.

And what is rent, healthcare, gas, insurance, and all the other expenses people earning minimum wage but not being scheduled regular hours are paying?

They are a lot. Nobody has ever said that life on minimum wage is easy. It's soul draining and the income inequality we have in the United States is an indictment of our society..

That being said, cooking pasta with some sauage is easy and cheap. It's also an indictment of our society that we have people so detached from reality that they have comvinced themaelves that sausage costs $10 or that basic cooking requires a Viking range and persian saffron.

You are the one completely detached from reality.

Lots of these people don't have mommies to cook for them. They are senior citizens or the disabled who can't cook a whole recipe but can warm up food.

Ever watched The Wire? You should so it smashes open your ridiculous world view.

You keep doubling and tripling down on the idea that basic cooking is too difficult for normal people. It's ridiculous, deeply patronizing and oddly misogynistic.

But the worst part is that it is obviously projection and shows how clearly out of touch you are. Poor people deserve dignity.

Ever watched The Wire?

NP. I've watched The Wire twice. One of the best pieces of storytelling and social commentary ever.

It started in 2002. It was slow, even back then.

Nobody is watching The Wire for the first time in 2025. People have TikTok attention spans. The few who would are already thoughtful people who get that different people have different realities.

I lived in a co-op building in NYC. One of the elderly neighbors a few floors below was trying to cook a meal, her dress caught on fire, and she burned to death in her kitchen. Kitchen fires are quite common with the elderly.

I now live in DC in a nice rowhouse neighborhood. Within two years, two of the elderly long time homeowners died after falling down the steps in their rowhouses. Old ladies in their 80s who live alone.

Pre-cooked meals are essential for the elderly to maintain their independence and stay out of nursing homes. It's more dignified and much cheaper at a societal level to have precooked meals delivered to elderly than warehouse them in group homes and feed them institutional slop.

Fact: Counties with the highest dependence on food stamps went for Trump. So why don't you ask your fellow MAGAs why they are so lazy and why they can't cook and why they eat prepackaged junk?

Yes, but then venture capitalists or corporations who own just about all of the country's nursing home/assisted living facilities won't be able to laugh all the way to the bank by charging $15,000 per month, per person for substandard care. /s

You will be hard pressed to find a low income Asian who is overweight or obese, They do however have the cooking skills thanks to their parents or extended family. I have always wondered (not in a judgmental way) why poor Americans don't have basic cooking skills when they are the ones who stand to benefit the most from such skills.

Yes, I have seen the aforementioned EBT grocery hauls on TikTok, all the women have functioning kitchens, it seems for a lot of people buying processed and pre packaged food is a choice.

It doesn't take a lot of expense to cook fresh beans, rice with a small salad or some roasted vegetables. Lots of vegetables are not expensive. Pasta cooked in olive oil with come sausages, garlic + bell pepper is a $10 meal for the family. Good oil can be bought in bulk on EBT. Two packets of linguine 99c each at Trader Joe's, chicken sausage $4.99, 1 head of garlic @ 30c, 2 bell peppers for $1.50 and oil + seasonings bought in bulk which can last months.

How do they get to Trader Joe's? All the TJs in my area are in the faraway suburbs. I sincerely hope you get to experience true poverty before you leave this mortal coil.

Can they get to a Walmart? The prices of many staples are listed in this thread from Walmart- very cheap.

People who have worked 10 hours a day are lazy yeah. You are a jerk.

LOTS of people work 10-12 hr days, people still manage to cook. Yes, it's insane that our work hours are horrible, especially low income people but a simple meal can be put together in 20-25 mins.

Let's see you work 12 hour days, spend 3 hours on your public transit commute, come home to hungry kids, body aching, mind exhausted, for months and years on end without a real break. Are you going to cook food from scratch every single night? Or might you occasionally warm up a frozen pizza so you can actually spend some time with your babies?

Spend a little less time on DCUM. A little more time in the grocery store and cooking.

Everyone in the US, even poor people, have an easier life with many more conveniences than ever before in the history of humanity. Yet people have lost the ability to cook because life is too hard and they don’t have time.

I am 64.

Convenience foods have been around forever. I remember my quickly subbing making everything from scratch to using boxed and frozen items for almost everything.
