This is the first sentence of an #Axios article about #TraderJoes. Later in the article, it says, “#TraderJoe's is urging consumers not to eat the recalled products.” Exactly who is eating the #rocks, #insects and #metal at Trader Joe’s?

One surprising finding I'm having from taking CO2 readings in various places is that I'm consistently getting readings between 700 and 800 ppm at supermarkets.

I mostly took readings at peak hours. I'll need to go back at off peak times to see how much the readings change. I was really amazed at how "not terrible" the reading at Trader Joe's was.

Picture 1: Trader Joes at noon on a Saturday. It is packed. It was a total surprise to see CO2 readings between 700 and 800ppm! (Fair)

Picture 2: Smart and Final, a mostly California-bases grocery outlet selling a mix of regular groceries and bulk package items with a reading of 714ppm. (Good)

Picture 3: Walgreens Pharmacy, at off peak hours. 529ppm. This is very good, but hard to believe. I'll have to go take this again.

Picture 4: Nob Hill Foods, a small grocery chain in Northern California. 726ppm. Good-Fair.

A better day today, thanks to steroids and drugs! I shot this Tuesday morning early at Trader Joe downtown Tempe. They have a “bar” that was closed that early. But what color glow! #Glow #Tempe #TraderJoe #Arizona

My mood now. 3 more Liquid Death box art for flavored water, $15.99 per 8 pack #TraderJoe #Tempe

Now if only I had bought this offering and cooked it. This would be the “before” photo.

Trying out a CW
To see if most people will still see this set of 2 photos by clicking or maybe see them anyway.
CW for showing food/shrimp

Looks like #TraderJoe has indeed discontinued "Masala Simmer Sauce," as I'd feared. It's been missing from the shelves for months at all my local TJs, and they've now introduced "Tikka Masala Curry Sauce." Tried it last night. Verdict: sadly, BLAND. Big loss on the simmer sauce front 😩

Going to #TraderJoe’s takes way more out of me than it should. I feel like I need a nap. Dealing with people with zero spatial awareness is rough.

Holy sh#$ !!!

I have eaten almost every one of these dark chocolates! Look at the list in this article. I ate some yesterday that had,,,let me check...240% over the legal standard of lead???

Well, I thought chocolate was killing me anyway. But this is scary.

Just came from the Towson Target where the self-checkout line stretched around the store with everyone holding their loaded baskets like idiots. Y'all need to learn the art of leaving your basket on the floor and gently nudging it forward with your toe as you move. It was like no one had been to a #NYC #TraderJoe store before, sheesh. #Baltimore

#TraderJoe’s prepped beets are really good especially if you add some of their creamy goat cheese.

Priceless: The eyeroll I got from my #TraderJoe's cashier when, after she asked how I was, I responded quizzically "Dope...or straight up dope. Which is better?"

Ignoring my query and handing me my grocery bag, she responded "Have a good day" but really meant "Geez. Those poor kids..." I felt it.

This is the type of thing that happens to me whenever I shop at #TraderJoe. Eight dark #chocolate orange balls was not on THE LIST. But, this is what all of my guests for #Thanksgiving Part II (the day AFTER Thanksgiving) will find at their seat at the table. Go Joe's!!

Plus, more finds from November, reviewed. https://www.bonappetit.com/story/trader-joes-reviews-november-2022 #TraderJoe's #cooking
