They have these Chocolate Chip Cookies called Dunks I believe. They are long and thin and one side is dipped in chocolate. Perfect for dunking in coffee or milk!



YES, I love those!

I thought in NYS, you couldn't sell wine in a supermarket?
Stew Leonard's has wine,but it is attached store with a sperate entrance. I wonder if the NYC Trader Joe's will be like that.



That's what I thought too, but maybe it will be a seperate store - that is what Costco in Westbury does too.

They sell everything in supermarkets in some states - even hard liquor

Sorry for the hijack, rebecca Chat Icon



hehe, no problem. when i get home, i'll post if they have the wine or not. Chat Icon

Those are my favorites and the cranberry ones as well.
I LOVE everything on this store. It's really hard to make a list. Plus every time I go, I try something new that I hadn't try before.
Does anyone know the hours in the city? I wonder if the one in the city is bigger than the one in East Northport. I think their selection might be more limited because it's really not that big. They should have made bigger when they had that space next door (where the Dollar Store is now)...then they can carry more stuff and then I will be spending a fortune there. I like their prices. I don't think they are expensive at all.
I also like going to Whole Foods on 24th Street and 7th Avenue. This store is pretty big and they have lots of selections. I wish the TJ's in East Northport by me was that big. That would be Great!!!!! Chat Icon

I get my vitamins from there.
And....
Chocolote Chip Dunkers
Cranberry Dunkers
Cereal (can't think of the name now..I think it's like Fruity O's)
Olive Oil
From the Frozen products:
Love buying my veggies there...
Spinach
Asparagus
Peas
Broccoli Florets
Peppers
Artichokes
Carrots
Potato Medley
I also get the fruits and mixed nuts from there as well.
I recently tried as well a vegetable mix with a balsamic butter sauce....it was really good....
I have many more but can't think of them right now. I will add as it come to my mind.....

TJ's does have a liquor/wine section! It is a separate store, separate entrance, and it isn't open yet, but it is there. Chat Icon

DH and I got there at about 6:30, and it was PACKED! Chat Icon We bought cajun salmon, chocolate covered bing cherries, french onion soup, vanilla almond granola bars, general tso's sauce, spaghetti sauce and spinach ricotta ravioli.

everything was yummy, except for the salmon. it didn't even taste like salmon.Chat Icon we'll be using the general tso's sauce later this week. Chat Icon Chat Icon

two other things about Trader Joes;

2. The checkout process..even at the busiest times they are so quick and efficient....

For the veggie's out there, they have the absolute bestest vegetarian chicken fingers and vegetarian meatballs, and they often have a good selection of soy cheeses.
