I'm back!! And in my opinion, the best thing I got from the entire trip was the TJ's Dark Chocolate Wedges (70% Belian Cacao) With Ancho & Chipotle Chiles & Korintji Cinnamon. A cute little tin of wedge shape chocolates that you can pop in your mouth and savor the flavor - but on the finish - watch out!! The ancho & chipotle's kick in!
I've eaten half the tin already.
Have to share my story from my day trip. Did my shopping and was at the check out. Of course I felt the need to voice my angst about still no Riverhead, NY store as a bunch of items go toppling out of the cart. (which turned into 2 carts on the way out after bagging!)
The gentleman at the register got me so excited by telling me to send him all the info on my Facebook group (called Trader Joe's Riverhead NY Location Request Group) and after he got approval from the Captain and 1st Mate (manager & ass't manager) he would give out the info to the people who came from such as distance as I to help our cause! I left the store reknewed with hope about furthering our endeavor.
After loading the car (coolers and all) and was getting in the drivers side, lo and behold, here comes my friend the check out guy - PUSHING MY SECOND CART OF GROCERIES!! In all the excitement, I fogot it!! Imagine I drove my 60+ miles home and hour and change later and didn't have it all!! Not to mention I need the stuff for a party this weekend!
I told my friend "Just one more reason I love Trader Joe's!!"
I was at the store yesterday to buy another tin of these lovely spicy sweet chocolates, my favorites, and they no longer carry them....What the??? Any idea why?
ReplyDeleteI have no idea!!! I was upset to see the same thing - only the dark chocolate 70% - still good - but not as good as spicy one...on the Trader Joe's website - you can send an inquiry directly to the company - here is the link:
