FOOD THREAD VOL. GRUB LIFE

[Nereyda Vuelve Por Dios]

The thought of caribbean food had me salivating.
Jerk pork, oxtail and a side of coco bread because 2 small scoops of rice wasn't going to be enough.

Made cajun rice yesterday

a jamaican plate of food with more than 2 maduros?

pigs truly can fly.

no i meant the reason why he got fired

edit:

"During his short tenure with Trader Joe's, this Crew Member's suggestions were listened to, and appropriately addressed," Friend-Daniel said. "Store leadership terminated this Crew Member's employment because of the disrespect he showed toward our customers. We have never, and would never, terminate a Crew Member's employment for raising safety concerns."

You eat fries plain ?

If they are seasoned and thin, I sure do. Seasoned steak fries I would put a little bit of ketchup on the side.

Morning Sandwich from FD Book Cafe in Gaithersburg, Maryland

2 egg spinach scallion omelet, turkey sausage, mozzarella cheese and organic salsa in a waffle

The light sweetness of the waffle definitely adds something different to the sandwich and I enjoyed it. For $13.99 though, it is on the expensive side to get regularly, so this would be a "treat" breakfast sandwich every now and then.

Since Covid, I have made sure to attempt to be the 1st person in line @ Trader Joe's as soon as they open up.

They open at 9, but from 8-9, elderly/pregnant/disabled people are allowed to shop. So I get there by 8:45 and I'm good. No crowd.

What are people lining up for

Value. Good quality items at prices often below big supermarket chains. They really excel with frozen and pre-made items.

The Korean supermarket has a line out the door every time I go

 

[DCAllAfrican]

What's the big deal about "trader joes"

What are people lining up for

Small, Gentrified Grocery store that limits the amount of products they sale (Less "Options vs. Large Grocery Stores).

Some things are cheap.
People like their frozen section.

It is literally the store made for Soccer Moms.

Never been to a traitor joes

This is my favorite thing from Trader Joe’s:

Their frozen Indian food isn’t too bad either.

 

[rhinosport]

To me, TJs is for folks that like to smoke that
They excel in the snack/frozen foods.
And especially the alcohol area.
2 buck Chuck!

Their signature line of rum and vodka is good for the price.
But their produce And meat selections are not that great.

 

[lawdog1]

Also, the majority of check-out staff at Trader Joe’s have Tetris-master like bagging skills.

Wife had got some kind of sweet potato hash thing from TJ which was fire. I think it was seasonal unfortunately.

Frozen tiki masala is really good but portion is small. Orange chickens are always a must.

I've still never actually been to one myself though

 

[para bellum]

These right here

 

[rhinosport]

$10.99 for a handle!

 

[B Sox]

Stupid Maryland doesn't sell alcohol in grocery stores, so I don't get to take advantage of the TJ/Kirkland stuff

Gotta drive out to that Costcos in DCAllAfrican

More Indian last night. Tandoori chickens, lamb biryanis, lasuni gobis, vegetable kormas, garlic naans:

 

[thapointguy]

Most places tax on omelette. I never order it.
