[quote=Anonymous]I think there is some good healthy food to be had from TJs. But what strikes me as funny about the way folks talk about it on these forums is how its associated with frugality. My family is on a tight food budget and TJs doesn't have much for us. Its more of a place to buy prepared foods, not a place with all the basic ingredients needed to really eat on the cheap. Like they don't carry any plain dried beans, but have canned beans instead. They don't have a lot of basic baking ingredients, but carry boxed mixes. The things we love from TJs (and I think are pretty healthy) are: the round multigrain crackers in the long box for $1.29 beef tamales from the frozen aisle juices that are not very sweet (like beet/carrot and the super tart cranberry juice) and I've heard they carry Kerrygold grass fed butter, but haven't looked for it yet We also like their recycled toilet paper and 2 buck chuck.[/quote]
