Mrs Peas came home with a bag of these recently. They were pretty amazing. No idea where she got them, though.

Thank you!
That’s kind of how bread works. Bakeries sell day old bread for like 75% off.
That is why you sometimes see Joe’s pralines at Aldi’s in Germany but not in the US, I guess.
Yep. Two different branding schemes, and here in the US Aldi stores are considered a discount grocery, while Trader Joe’s is a wonderland. Part of that social capital is left over from when Trader Joe’s was a weird little niche store that sent out weird booklets about their foods for sale.
I’m not talking about store bakery bread, which you’re right, bakery bread does have a shorter shelf life, I’m talking about the bread that’s akin to Aunt Millie’s or Pepperidge Farms, and even the bagels, which tend to have a longer shelf life than store bakery bread. But it’s not just the bread, other perishables at Trader Joes, like their dairy products tend to have a shorter shelf-life too. The heavy cream is a good deal, but there’s only a few days to use it.
I think this article proves you wrong.
Or it says exactly what you just said.
I’m not sure which, and I don’t want to read it again.
Missing the “I haven’t tried this one yet is it any good? You don’t know? I’m sure it’s delicious”
Good bread lasts one day. Buy smaller loaves.
Ralph’s market cashier from a few years ago, commenting on our purchase of bottled clam juice: “What do you do with this?”
That’s some consolation… unless…
My introduction to a TJ’s product was courtesy of a SoCal native… a workplace friend. Gotta try 'em, he said.
My blueberry muffins were lousy with weevils.
It gets weirder when it’s your Uber driver doing that while picking your grocery bags from the trunk
No, it doesn’t, because
It does.
You don’t have to.
Wow.
A lot of overly bitter TJ customers…
Face it: he’s just not that into you! Move on.
That’s better than weevily with louses, eh?
Dark chocolate covered edamame is the discontinued item I’ll always hold against them.
My Aldi’s experience is actually the mirror image. When I was there stocking up on a bunch of one of their occasional items (frozen chicken breasts with pepper jack cheese and bacon) I was raving to the cashier "These are just as good as they sound, I really wish that y’all stocked them all the time.:
Our grocery list has a permanent item called “middle freezer?”
Now that they’ve remodeled, it’s an end freezer, but the item still remains. It’s a surprise every time. Stone-baked margarita pizza, apple-caramel strudel, frozen seasoned meats - they’re there once, maybe next year you’ll get the seasonal items - and hey! there are strudels again!
