Trader Joe's Baked Jalapeno Cheese Crunchies - damn them!

I just finished off the bag...a very small bag I might add and now I want more.

I got these before the holidays and have been eating a few at a time. But they are sooooooooooooooooooo good! And salty. Must remember the salt!

These were new to me as were the Minty Marshmallows.

Have you tried them? And if so, how come no one told me about them before?????

and soy mini ice cream bars. And so much else - oh yes, did I mention the dark chocolate covered raisins? Or dark chocolate nonpariels?

Damn them indeed!

Whole Foods Market launched in Austin. Their flagship store is here plus a couple of others. We have Wheatsville, a natural foods coop that predates WFM. We have about 4 Sprouts stores, 2 Central Markets and three Natural Grocers, all the HEBs have large natural sections, plus tons of smaller stores. Very. Saturated. Market.

Trader Joe's wisely started in less saturated places in Texas.

Frozen and dairy items are represented by empty containers....

Damn them. I end up trying nearly every damn thing on there.

In fact, if you sit with some Ben and Jerry Cherries Garcia and compare it to the Cherry Chocolate Chip Soy Creamy (yes, soy ice cream)....you would not ever touch the Ben and Jerry again!

but I couldn't find it. The smoked Gouda was out, too, except for one with apple wood or something. I did get a cheddar that had caramelized onions. Deadly.
