This is a very funny thread. I couldn't go to Trader Joe's during Lent because I gave up sweets, and they have sweets EVERYWHERE in that store. The frozen food aisle is the worst - shelves of sweets down the entire thing. Argh. My weaknesses there: the meringues and the chocolate covered raspberry gummies.

I cast you out, O unclean, addictive and somewhat controversial Pork Shu Mai! The power of Christ compels you!!! Oh, and take those eclairs with you when you go.

Yep, my husband and I agree. Those and chocolate-covered ginger - we swear they lace them with something because we can't stop ourselves.

May fire ants build a nest in your bidet, for having informed me of the existence of these.

(In case it wasn't clear: )

Can someone send me a care package? We moved to Colorado and the closest TJ's is 5 hours away...

Love those! Also love love love the bon bons, I ate most of them on the drive home...now I dont even bother buying them anymore

If you really want to know how evil Trader Joe's is, try their s'mores bites. OMG. A big square layered with graham cracker, marshmallow, and chocolate, and covered in chocolate, that you can pop in the microwave for a few seconds to make it all warm and s'mores-like. Holy crap. These are seriously dangerous. And I hate marshmallows!!!

Trader Joes-you are the DEVIL! You are evil and must be stopped (or bought up by a larger company that cares nothing about quality frozen food, tropical print shirts and customer service with a smile).

Wait till Xmas when they have the fudge covered mint Joe joes

Meant "meant" not met. I'll stop now and go eat something.

Oops met "yours". I'll have to try it. Have you had their Tarte d'Alsace? OMG.

Hmm - I do the same thing with their sausage rolls AND their mini chocolate eclairs... thank goodness I'm breastfeeding and the pounds don't pile on, but later - watch out!

Yum. I just had their salmon with orzo, and it was delish. But your is more sinful.

shells w/brie and asparagus. really?! you just haddd to go and make that. and it heats up in the microwave. now i'm here alone while husband works late and baby sleeps, eating an entire package of this stuff.
