I set foot in a TJ's just once looking for something else but I think I'll have to go back after reading this thread, lol!

Have a wonderful time on your trip! I will be driving 70 miles to my daughter's graduation tomorrow - where there happens to be the closest Trader Joe's. I plan to get some of the great suggestions others made here for our party the next day. Have a safe trip!

Loved the garlic naan! The cheese I got and loved is called "cambozolia".

Oh darn, I guess I don't get that second bag! I am glad you will find a use for it though...the sauce is to die for though, isn't it? I always lick the spoon after dishing it up.

I think I can speak for everyone who has contributed their suggestions and wish you a great and successful trip!

We will need a full report and list of what you thought of TJs and what you bought. As you try the items we suggested, it would be great if you gave us your opinion!

Have loads of fun!!!

You too Cootie!

I agree -- fresh gnocchi = wonderful.
Frozen gnocchi = not worth the calories.

Safe trip, Cootie! I will give a full report when I get back...and try to limit the exclamation points, ha.

I'm another who likes handmade gnocci--but won't touch the frozen ones.

So, did you move to be close to a TJs? I've heard of crazier reasons.
