Oh no! My dearly departed cat lived for this stuff. It was a huge staple that helped get nutrition into him in his last year.
The BFF brand is far more expensive than the TJ cat tuna, but it's a solid substitute option. If you're really desperate -- cats are not known for being reasonable about food availability, and probably your reject your calm, patient explanations about the vagaries of capitalism and vendors going out of business -- then I recommend trying these: https://smile.amazon.com/Weruva-Feline-Friend-B-F-F-Variety/dp/B06X18FLFF/ (the 'red kind' is closest to the TJ kind).
Petco also has (or had??) Soulistic which has tuna-riffic options for a bit cheaper. Their Whole Hearted house brand also has a TJ cat tuna close-equivalent. All of these are a bit wetter/less dense than the TJ brand but still have that red meat-y tuna along with the appropriate kitty vitamins.
edit: I swear we went through almost every possible brand and type of wet cat food last year, constantly trying to find something palatable. I am now a wet cat food maven, AMA.

I love these and have been eating them almost daily for the last month or so. I follow the recipe and bake mine, they taste like the real deal and I've actually eaten real felafel in the middle east. I wouldn't even consider frying them.
I tried another middle eastern brand sold on amazon and walmart that is pretty good as well.

I picked up a toddy and buy their whole bean coffee and grind it on the coarsest setting in the store. It’s delicious. I dilute 3 parts water/1 part coffee.
No, I just used the TJ's mix and premade red bean paste in a pan like this :)
Much spicier and chili forward, but this stuff is so so good and gives some of the same sensation and taste on food!
You can buy them (or at least similar ones) on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/UNNI-Compostable-European-Certified-Francisco/dp/B013XGQXVW/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?adgrpid=56417704739&hvadid=274899174895&hvdev=m&hvlocphy=9017943&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t2&hvqmt=e&hvrand=944329438768593978&...
You can get a set of 2 with the black cap for $7.99 on Amazon (there are silver and gold caps but those cost a tad more).
Love it. When I was commuting I could fit five days’ worth of meals in that cooler bag. Now I just do two-days so don’t have to pack as much 😅 I’ve learned some things travel better than others (bananas are a no—bruise too easily and smell up your bag) and some meals reheat better in the HotLogic than others (baked potatoes have never reheated well for me but soups and pastas are a go).
What do you use to keep everything cold in your bag? I’ve tried just about everything (7 years’ seniority here) but these ice packs have been the best: https://www.amazon.com/Ohuhu-Reusable-Injuries-Therapy-Relief/dp/B01AADOZCU/ref=mp_s_a_1_15?dchild=1&keywords=ice+pack&qid=1629462993&sr=8-15
Of course! These Herrs chips from Amazon are pretty good and reasonable priced. It's an US brand I believe, you can find it in stores I heard .
I'm originally Canadian and honestly the Lays and Old Dutch ketchup chips are great if you can get your hands on them.
They were probably a dupe for the famous Korean honey butter chips, which you could get online or at an Asian market. Although I'm sure the ingredients list looked better on the TJs version lol.

Yes please! Also I found on Amazon a verrrrrry similar tasting one. Basically can’t tell the difference! Ahmad Teas - Mango Black Tea 1.4oz - 20 Tea Bags https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003WW14QM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_JSY7Bb5V5CWFQ
yeah its pretty ridiculous. i scrolled through a few pages at Amazon and some of the prices were outrageous. Two bottles of moisturizing cream for $20 kind of outrageous.
Highly recommend Blue Lotus Chai. It's not a concentrate, but an unsweetened powder. It's super spicy and delicious. I know it's kind of expensive, but each can lasts me months, and I make a chai tea latte every morning.
ive never tried the tj's ones, but it looks like an equivalent to the ones at costco. i couldnt find a link from the costco website, but here's a listing on amazon for the same product: https://www.amazon.com/Tropical-Fields-Crispy-Coconut-Rolls/dp/B00WBTOZP4
(costco is much cheaper than the amazon listing!)
maybe you could give these a try if the TJs ones are discontinued.
I agree you should be fine. But you could also buy an ice pack or freezer bag at a local store. Or on amazon
I was surprised every day as it grew. And thanks! Actually just peel and stick since we live in a rental 🤣. Looks way better than I expected it to though.
Sounds good. I actually bought these a few weeks ago, but haven’t tried them yet (I still have the mints...)
$4 for 120
I love it!

TJ's version was pretty gross to be honest - I tried it side-by-side with this brand on Amazon - this one is really good, the smoke is there but it's subtle.
TJ's version was just too in your face...
I don't know about body butters (sounds kinky!), but I'll try them.
I do know that this is the best day lotion I've ever tried (and for some reason, it's half price on Amazon)
It's made with crack, I'm sure of it.
/Available on Amazon - 6 for $44 and free shipping.
Succulents can be a little tricky - they like to be dry, but they do not like to dry out. I'd get a hydrometer (they're cheap and SOOOOO helpful) and maybe a little LED light and it'll be very happy (especially in a new pot).
A quick search i did for you in case your attention span made you forget you want this :) I also personally recommend setting up reminders on your phone or use an app like Medisafe.

This product is supposed to be oily! My biggest complaint is that it isn't oily enough, because most chili oils are is supposed to be more oily than there are chili and onion garlic crispies.
I love this product, but it's pretty pricey so I get the TJ's brand as an ok sub.
I haven't had the TJ's meal in a long time, but this is the gochujang sauce that I love. I can find it at Wegman's and at my local asian grocery stores:
https://www.amazon.com/Gochujang-Korean-Chili-Sauce-7-5Oz/dp/B00OQGC20U
Added at the top but here you go! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dsessoms.crackedmeals
​
Tested it a decent amount but if you run into any errors let me know! Thanks!
a bit of an investment but if you buy wheels of cheese, it might be worth it
little to no flavor if you want the honest answer. maybe traces of provelone.
You can get a cheese curler and do this to any cheese to better effect... and better flavor.
For those looking for a flavorful cheese, DO NOT BUY THIS.
It has little to no actual flavor, and is mainly popular for the aesthetic look and texture. You would be better off making the same aesthetics with a cheese curler with ANY other wheel of cheese.
I would recommend trying this with a wheel of smoked gouda or a sharp cheddar(pair the cheddar with thin apple slices)
it's these:
https://www.amazon.com/Sensible-Portions-Cinnamon-Straws-Gluten-Multigrain/dp/B07GZ1V7M5
There are actually better simmer sauces out there.
I tried this one after they DCd the TJs sauce, and I find it is more flavorful.
https://www.amazon.com/Maya-Kaimal-Masala-Indian-Simmer/dp/B003GDNM4O
here you go:
https://www.amazon.com/Walnut-Acres-Organic-Baked-Beans/dp/B000LKVT90
That’s quite odd, because it’s packaged the same way as all other glassed good (salsa, olives, red peppers…). I love this stuff but you can find the same product on Amazon and elsewhere I guess. https://www.amazon.com/TUTTO-CALABRIA-Crushed-Calabrian-Peppers/dp/B004ROGVCG
Cook your meal at home, put it in one of these, and take it to work. Great price, this one is. I used a similar several times a week for years.
I only have experience with one! It does well so far at both sealing well and doing more gentle stuff without crushing (there are two settings) I got it last year in a black friday sale actually --
And as I just checked my order history to get the link for you it's on a massive sale, cheaper than I got it, and now I'm slightly irked. :D
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07J2SR7YT/
I use food saver bags. You can get them from Amazon or Costco for decently cheap -- they come in mixed things often, like some premade bags, some rolls to make your own.
if you're near an Amazon or Amazon Fresh store/delivery area and are ok with purchasing items from them, these are pretty good too: https://www.amazon.com/Aplenty-Milk-Chocolate-Smores-Bites/dp/B093VFQNJP/ they also come in dark chocolate!
This four pack from Amazon is really good. Each of the cardboards is thick enough that once the cat destroys one side, you can flip it over and it's like a whole new scratcher. They are large enough for my cats to sit on or lay on and they seem to enjoy doing that.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08V4V4MR4
I have 6 cats, they all love it.
I'm was in your same boat, btw. I held off on an air fryer because I was super picky, until a few weeks ago. I finally bit the bullet.
This is the one I went with: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M0AWSJX/ref=dp_cr_wdg_tit_nw_mr
It's amazing. In reality, it's a convection oven, but it gets much hotter than an air fryer and can make pizzas up to 12 inches. I cook bacon, steaks, chicken, veggies...all perfect. It even comes with a pizza stone included!!
Lactase enzyme gives a lot of flexibility for dairy than relying on commercially produced lactose-free foodstuffs.
This is the enzyme I use and can confirm it works very well. For dosing things like evaporated milk just google the estimated lactose content (literally minutes of work if that) and just compare milk to that item to get your correct dosing. It doesn't harm anything to dose a little heavier if you're not sure as it won't effect the dairy texture.
I'd also check if any local ice cream parlors are able to do a lactose free cake (or just make the lactose free icecream for a cake to be assembled at home) as they generally have more flexibility than the national chains.
Buffered aspirin.
It was unusual in that it had no cornstarch in it. Unfortunately I have a corn allergy. I've found no actual aspirin alternatives that are corn-free. (white willow bark preparations have to suffice). Bayer had an "advanced" aspirin that cost an arm and a leg but was corn-free; alas, it was long ago discontinued.
I hate Amazon, but they seems to have a few in stock. Also, I feel like I’ve seen a very similar candy at IKEA before, although maybe not exactly the same…side note TJ’s production/supply chain issues are wearing me out, even though I know it’s directly their fault. The inconsistency found while shopping their is grating…
If you want something to defrost fast you can put the plastic bag the (veggies/meat/fish/fruit etc.) in a bowl of room cold water and it should defrost pretty quick. If you want it to defrost faster, keep running water over it.

I love the big tub ones too! Less sweet, more buttery.

Pretty much everything from TJ's is re-branded version of some other product. Find out who made it for them and buy the real brand.
In the mean time, you can pay 2.5x as much for the last few bottles on Amazon.
Sure -- measure the neck and length and then search for one that fits.
EXAMPLE so you can see what you might like to search, I don't know the measurements of the cold brew bottle -- https://smile.amazon.com/Black-Soap-Dispenser-Replacement-1-03/dp/B09GGCH1LG/
I'd definitely try to get something BEFORE you run out so you can mix in like, 1/4 new, then 1/2 new... it's more likely to go over well than just switching.
I'd look at Merrick, I and <3 and you, and this exists, though it's hella $$$ -- https://www.chewy.com/firstmate-wild-pacific-salmon-rice/dp/249064?
Also, try calling chewy and explaining and asking -- like tell them the ingredients. Their customer service is awesome. They'll try to find similar and if you get something and try it and they won't eat it, chewy will refund you.
> Fuck Amazon tho.
Yea.. fuck them for allowing me the ability to purchase over a pound of gojuchang for $5.84 with the click of a button and being able to get it delivered to my house this afternoon. Assholes.
That looks like german bread that I love. This stuff (it comes in different varieties) -- https://www.amazon.com/Mestemacher-Bread-Three-Grain-17-6-Ounce/dp/B00471YHU2
It lasts for ages. It's good plain or toasted. Spread some chevre or brie on and add sliced fruit., spread a bit of pb and jam, just do butter.
Run and buy activated charcoal! They sell it at natural supplements stores. I think sometimes Whole Foods has it. It will absorb the bacteria in your stomach and lock it up until you poop it out. It's really effective and is used for drug overdose and poisoning, but I've used it for food poisoning too. It'll absorb any medications you've taken too though, so be careful.
https://www.amazon.com/Natures-Way-Activated-Charcoal-Capsules/dp/B0006LCQ4Q
Definitely sounds like your oven runs hot, get an oven thermometer to check, doesn't need to be expensive, this one from Taylor is a standard for a reason - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0000DJUYR/ Once you know, sometimes the stove is adjustable, but sometimes it's easier to just compensate when setting the temp.
For folks who find they leak, yeah, I haven't found a consistent way to deal with that, but pulling as soon as they're brown enough tends to have better results.
Lots of options on Amazon, until you can find it at TJ's again... this one is only .59/ounce (comes in a 2LB bag, should last a while) :
https://smile.amazon.com/Candy-Shop-Crystallized-Ginger-Slices/dp/B07B9K7GVX
Try Bioderm Atoderm Cleansing Oil! I bought this one over a year ago and still have a good quarter bottle left. I love it!
I, like you, did not buy enough, but I found a dupe that may actually be the manufacturer.
Try Terranean Herbs Terranean Herbs! It's local here but they ship on Amazon. You can get spicy too.
Never tried the TJs one, but we have this one from Amazon and love it - https://www.amazon.com/Zaatar-Zatar-Zahtar-Natural-Eastern/dp/B07CZ9147T/. It already has sumac too!
Just fyi if they ever discontinue them they’ll have plenty at your local kosher/Jewish grocery store. Also on Amazon, can probably find them elsewhere but they are made by Osem
I got a set of those cat spoons on Amazon. The ones I got are incredibly TINY and are only meant to stir your tea/coffee and look too cute, but I simply must have one hanging on my cup every morning or my day is not complete.

We have two cats and I still worry a little with the liquid wax. But no worries about fires or singed whiskers.
This product helps train cats against counter surfing. Pro tip, you don't have to buy their expensive refill cans, you can use regular condensed air from office supply stores.
I have a couple of TJ jute tote bags I got years ago. They're more structured and do work well. The only thing I don't like about them is they do shed. Anyplace they've brushed against me I get little shreds of jute. Pretty noticeable when I'm wearing dark colors.
These are the ones I purchased at TJ: https://www.amazon.com/Trader-Joes-Veggies-Grocery-Shopping/dp/B0192FU5TE

>they have been discontinued by whatever company makes them for TJ's.
It's suspected that Good Health Natural Foods might be the manufacturer of the regular Peanut Butter Filled Pretzels (salted), and it's likely they also made the Unsalted version.
You can see a picture of the Unsalted bag on this link (Amazon) or here (Instacart), but it's currently unavailable on Amazon and I'm having difficulty finding the product anywhere else so it would make sense if Good Health Natural Foods stopped producing the Unsalted version all together, even under their own brand name.

I use this. Didn’t get it on Amazon. An Asian grocery near me sells them for like $1.99
Almost did a similar thing when I kept one of these and one of these on the same shelf in the fridge.
Awww.....that is so heart breaking to have your dog so limp in your arms. You are right. Lot's of sleepless nights. I finally got to sleep until 6am today. So I got some sleep. :)
Also, thank you. That is so kind of you to wish us well. What kind of chihuahua do you have? I have a cream colored deer face chihuahua. He actually just hit a mile stone less than an hour ago. He ate his dry kibble for the first time. So I'm so happy!
My dog has a sensitive stomach but yet he eats everything on the ground. The vet told me years ago to just use plain pumpkin from the can and use a liquid medicine dispenser (this) to give him. About once a month something will upset his stomach and I give him one of these with pumpkin in it and then some with water. Pumpkin is good for stomach, constipation, and diarrhea. TJ is good to always have a few cans on hand.
My husband is a big guy and prefers hot lunches, so he used this: https://www.amazon.com/Thermos-Stainless-Ounce-Folding-Spoon/dp/B01DZQT01U?th=1
He is retired now, but I would make a pot of stew, chowder, soup every weekend and he would eat this, along with a sandwich and fruit, for his lunches on the job.
You’ll be able to find it at south East Asian focused markets. If you don’t live near one, they’re around online too. A quick search led me to this Tom yum flavored one.
>I just need to figure out the imjur part to upload the photo.
You might have to upload to imgur using a desktop computer. I just tried it on my phone and I couldn't find a way without downloading the app.
But imgbb.com is another option, and it seems like you can upload pictures via mobile, without having to make an account. That might be an easier option since I know people use their phones to take pictures, and it's more steps to have to send to your computer to upload.
You're welcome! 💜 If you want to make your own ube goodies, I highly recommend Butterfly brand ube extract. It has the same flavor profile as the Magnolia ice cream.
I, like you, did not buy nearly enough of those jars when they were around. Fortunately, I tracked down the manufacturer if you want to buy more
Also, depending on his general grump level ;) and his coffee afficionado level, you might buy him a grinder. It's ALWAYS better to grind the beans you're going to use right when you use them. Much better/fresher coffee.
There are small electric grinders (for the coffee ppl reading this yeah I have a hand ceramic burr grinder but as an intro to grinding...) that cost legit $10 and are super simple (you just put the coffee in, lid on, press the lid down, stop pressing to stop grinding). Like so (random one came up first and isn't $) - https://www.amazon.com/Electric-Stainless-Noiseless-Operation-GECGI140-U-9/dp/B08YY4TFYH/
Do these people believe that they have a monopoly on selling Indian pickle (or just garlic pickle) in the US?
As for the spelling of "achaar" - it appears to be quite mainstream, to say the least!
Yes, it's tough being a small business. They should use this expanded awareness (via TJ's) to promote their own offering as a premium version.
I discovered nongshim shin last year and it is pretty delicious and spicy! Plenty of noodles as well. VERY high in sodium though! Walmart sells it but you can get a bunch from Amazon for pretty cheap.

It's no longer sold, but fyi it's called genuine Fred cheese log
if you haven't tried it already to get yourself a bottle of the OG lao gan ma
it's like 1/3 the price at an asian market. there's ton's of varieties, the one you want is spicy chili crisp
Very tasty, but from what I can tell seems to be the same brand that is available from Costco and Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Wickedly-Prime-Peanut-Butter-Filled-Pretzels/dp/B076HVVQ9T), both of which sell at a better price point if you are willing to buy a larger quantity.
If they ever get discontinued, Sun Tropics makes a similar product called Mochi Snack Bites (Amazon link) that's available in 4 different flavors - Sea Salt, Golden Curry, Thai Bird Sriracha, and Tamari Teriyaki, I've seen it sold at Whole Foods and might be available at other retailers.
If you can't find the TJs version your regular grocery store may sell the may ploy brand, but you can also get it from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NN6UISM/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_CMFY22REMA1K5A7C7136
I think the non seasoned onens don't say elote on them. They are just corn chip dippers. If they say elote, they are seasoned.

Def get this! We use them in our oven all the time. It'll taste like it's baked right on the rack but it will hold together.
In general black garlic is more mellow like roasted garlic but has some sweet umami tones due due to fermentation. You can get while bulbs if it at specialty markets and unfortunately I have to use Amazon to get my fix. Be warned you can easily each many bulbs in one sitting, they are like semi firm sweet umami gummy bears. Addictive

Tj dehydrated shaker is convenient for salad and pizza if you don’t eat to cut up cloves but the cloves are one giant clove and easy peal like those lumpy satsuma oranges

Traders Joe's has a sweet cream that's amazing for making foam. Get yourself one of these bad boys and it's legit just as good as the Starbucks cold brews with foam.
Yes!! Omg this has happened to me multiple times, I had to crack the lid with a screwdriver once and snap it off!

I forgot the pic of my normal TJs chocolate chips: https://www.amazon.com/Trader-Joes-Semi-Sweet-Chocolate-Chips/dp/B0088PF8QA This is what I think is superior to the chunks. The chips and chunks differ in their ingredients and texture, not just shape.
TJ's definitely sells normal-sized chocolate chips that are perfect for baking (better than anywhere else if ya ask me!) This is what the bag looks like: https://www.amazon.com/Trader-Joes-Semi-Sweet-Chocolate-Chips/dp/B0088PF8QA
At my store, they're typically above the frozen foods along with the other cookies/sweet treats, but I've also seen them in the baking section with the flour/sugar/spices.
