Chocolate croissants: Let rise and bake in a.m.

These things are amazing - my family cannot get enough of these. My kids ask for them on their birthdays.

I'm looking forward to stocking up on some mixes next trip--cinnamon quick bread and the brownie mix. I also love their OJ and european style yogurt.

I love threads like this because there are always new discoveries at TJs and sometimes the place is so clogged you can't really wander in a daze like you can at target...

Finally someone mentions their European Style Yogurt. This is the best yogurt available, anywhere, PLUS it's organic. My toddler eats it out of the huge tub with a spoon. I put it on everything. It is so delicious, and I can't figure out what "real brand" they're going after with this one.

I also loved one of their new frozen entrees, I can't remember the name but it's Greens and maybe chickpeas and sweet potato? It's supposed to be a west African inspired dish. I loved it, but the portion size was too small, so I was forced to try to make it myself for dinner one night

Yes, the European style full-fat yogurt is the only yogurt I buy/eat. It has the tang that yogurt should have but that most American yogurts do not. Sadly they've been out of stock quite a bit the past few months -- none today when I went! But I'd stocked up previously so I still have one carton left....

Bad wine choices too. Yum.

There you are! we were waiting for you! Yes, much like Whole Foods, Balducci's, Harris Teeter, Mom's Organic Market, Giant and Wegman's, there are both healthy and nonhealthy options! Also, whole and processed foods at all these places! Whole would have THOUGHT!

But shut your mouth, the wine selection is awesome and you blow.

You sound defensive and irrational.

You both need a good glass of wine From TJ of course!

Choczilla Nut Pie- kind of like pecan pie on crack.

Had some with a dark cup of coffee and I was in heaven.

I love all the French frozen items (the ones that are made in France, VERY IMPORTANT) - they definitely not the healthiest choices, but the taste for an occasional treat. Flat breads (they used to have 2 types - mushroom and ham ones, and I just got the new one - tomato and goat cheese, good, but mushroom will always be my favorite).

And the absolute best desserts for me at TJ are French tarts - raspberry and pear ones. They used to have blueberry one as well, but I have not seen it recently, and the price for the remaining two seems to be lower (although I'm not completely sure about - don't udually remember prices), I just hope they are not going to discountinue them. That will be my personal tragedy.

Always get:
Brie shells and asparagus. So good (high in fat)
Hummus with Cilntro and Jalepenos (blows Wegmans hummus out of the water)

And Chimchurri Rice

What is this and where in the store?? I've never seen it and it would be right up my alley. Dangerously so.

I found it at the Rockville store. Here is a picture I found on Google.

Okay people, was at TJs today and the Nutty Bits I recommended on this thread were sold out. Next time I'm keeping it to myself!
