On my way back to the hotel after work I decided to stop at Trader Joe’s.
I have heard lots of good things about this place so with nothing else to do….why not?!
Well….it was OKAY but honestly I wouldn’t go out of my way to shop there. Maybe it is just this one in West Des Moines ?!
Regardless, I strolled down each and every isle. Looking at all the ‘different things’ that I wouldn’t find at home or in a regular grocery store –
So here goes – bulk jalapeños and avocados – Ronnie would love that =)
Frozen asparagus?!
and for dessert? Chocolate covered bananas and pumpkin macarons
Some Mid Western Pale Ale –
Cheap wine –
Happy wine –
and who remembers this from A&P?
Here’s their newest treat – Chocolate with pop rocks…..ha!
And let’s not overlook the seaweed –
But we CANNOT go without finding the preserved sliced lemons. LOL
The one thing I did want to pick up (based on their web-site) was the Broccoli chips. Wouldn’t you know they were out of them, ha!
I purchased NOTHING but am sure everyone that saw me thought I was a secret shopper or something. Find…….Position……SNAP!
Have y’all been to Trader Joe’s? What do you go for and how far do you travel?!
