5. Trader Joe’s started as primarily a wine shop
Did you know that in the 60’s, Trader Joe’s used to be just a wine shop? This, believe it or not, is how their story began. Even now, they have an impressive collection of wines that occupy a large part of the store. If you like Charles Shaw bottles, then you might know that since 2012 they’ve sold more than 600 million even if their price has increased a bit. It’s still a great deal!
Which one is your favorite?

I love Trader Joe’s but fail to see why the Orange Chicken is so popular. I’ve tried it several times and find it to
be mediocre. Also, the founders sold Trader’s to a China based company several years ago. I was sorry to hear that.
The founders sold the company to a buyer from China several years ago.

Yes, there are good things about Trader Joe’s, but as a health conscious person, I am extremely disappointed in that they use canola oil in their brand products. It has been known for quite awhile that canola oil is a bad oil. Although all seed oils are not that good, at least sunflower and even to some extent safflower oils are way better than canola oil. For that reason I do not shop very often at Trader Joe’s.
Went to Trader Joe’s in the middle of a snow storm a couple weeks back. I was so distraught by the flat tire I found as I parked the car that I forgot to take a cart in. One of the staff not only helped by getting me a cart, she came out with me later to help load the groceries. Went today and found less expensive eggs, the grapefruit juice that most other groceries have been out of for a month, and some really good chocolate treats. Your swiss cheese is cheaper and better than others, your prochuitto like wise (although it’s too high up for some of short folks to reach without help), your Kosher beef stew is the best ever. I love the unmarinated artichokes and miss terribly the salt caramel gelato.
always have gone to trader joes for food and groceries always treated with kindness and respect
