TJ's finds


Among my favorite reasons for shopping at Trader Joe's are the new finds that seem worth trying. There are occasional misses, but in most cases the finds are hits. This week's was a grandslam. In their prepared foods cooler, Diner Classics Macaroni & Cheese. The cheese had a good flavor to it, and the breadcrumbs and panko on top were perfect. I added a little salt and pepper, but other than that, it was a perfect comfort food lunch at work. And at $4.29, it cost less than almost anything I could have picked up at our local (fill in the blank lunch spot).

I also dig the icons they're beginning to use on various products. It's a nice design quirk.
