totally off topic but the new coconut oil spary...since it is coconut oil can you spay this on your body like you would rub the one in the jar on your skin? Almost reminds me of the new vaseline cream spray...

Re: Trader Joe's staples

some of my favorites:
Orange Juice - great price!
quinoa
orange chicken
french vanilla ice cream
ice cream sandwiches - made with chocolate chip cookies.
frozen breaded chicken
cheese sticks
fat free greek yogurt
and I love their frozen appetizers. They are great when your short on time and have unexpected company. I like to have a couple on hand.

I was thinking you could do this too but I read the ingredients and there is a chemical listed so I decided it wouldn't be a good idea.

I don't know about TJ's supply, but generally the season for them is from October through December, give or take...so if they don't have them yet, they should soon!
