For some weird reason, I always thought Trader Joe's was just a place to pick up some specialty items. I never thought it was a place where I could get the majority of what I needed on my grocery list. Well, I was wrong, seriously wrong! I work on campus and sometimes I'd just drop by TJs to pick up a few things. But today I needed more than just a few things. I ended up getting everything on my grocery list :-) and that included some really awesome vegan meatless meatballs; yeah you heard me right! Now, I will say that I am NOT all about the Two Buck Chuck wine, however I did pick up some really nice Tempranillo for only $3.99 ( in fact, I'm sipping on it while I type this review). Sure the produce department leaves a little to be desired, but I picked up some awesome organic avocados for only a buck apiece. Back in the day when we had a gaggle of kids at home, I don't think TJ's would suit what I needed, however this is the place if you're just shopping for a small family!
