Trader joes always has the freshest you can get. If you're a health nut then you will love this store. Its not as hectic as your standard grocery store and the chocolate covered jojos are to die for! It is mostly organic so as you can imagine it is more pricy than your average grocery, but if you're in need of fine food it's a wonderful place to go. I really don't like how small it is though, and wish they would expand it. I feel kind of claustrophobic in there!
