OMG, TJ's is phenomenal. Their business model is all about cutting out the middle man (90% of everything is TJ brand), every day low prices (i.e., no weekly specials) and most importantly for me, selling mostly organic and vegan products. And from what I can tell, the TJ brand products, especially in the frozen food aisle, are EXCELLENT. I love TJ because they are such an F*** You to the mega-corporate food empire. You don't see toxic food conglomerates like Kraft, Kelloggs and Nabisco represented here. The only downside is limited selection- they basically carry only one version of each item. But really... do we need to roam down aisles with 15 different brands of penne pasta? TJ's $1.29 whole wheat penne is good enough for me!
