uncommon cheddar is great

There was an article in the WSJ (sorry paywall) about people hoarding the best TJs products leaving a lot of empty shelves. We like a lot of their stuff.

Ugh I just got home from TJs (I’m an occasional shopper) and wish I had this list with me. I got the Kringle- that I know about and love.

Their Spanish olive oil is very good

I will never forgive them for discontinuing Island Soyaki. We used it all the time.

Their flour tortillas are quite good for store bought (the "handmade" ones with the blue label).

Overall their frozen Indian meals are pretty good; the Thai ones not so much.

The family size organic cheese and tomato pizza is really good, if you like a thin crust pizza.

Toffee sticky pudding, it has been absent the last few years. Now they have pumpkin sticky pudding which is good but not as good as the original. Looks like it will be back this winter.

World Market sells the sticky toffee pudding in 2 packs. It’s in the same shipping center as TJs in Rockville
