Are those just the thin seaweed pieces? I had issues with those.
Yeah. I had no such issues. I ate the whole package in like five seconds (which isn't difficult).

Today I am snacking on radish wedges dipped straight into the smoked salt, so I know from sodium.
This exact thing is an all-time snack in our house.

I am here to recommend the frozen proof-while-you-sleep mini (not chocolate) croissants. Holy crap are they good. Croissants are expensive too, so I am glad to know that if I want one, I can get EIGHT and bake them in my own oven.
You can trust me on this because I don't eat shitty croissants and also I just gobbled two (2) of these, so the memory is flaky, buttery, and fresh.

Can't speak to soy milks but their rice milk is good. Probably private labeled Rice Dream, imo.

Oh they have coconut milk, too, and it makes me wildly nauseated. I don't normally have a problem with coconut or coconut products so I have no idea what that's all about.

Alas, I too had issues with them. The texture was one that I hate.
Oh well, I'll crumble them into some miso soup.

That had little samples the other day and it was pretty yummy. It wasn't exceptionally spicy. I didn't buy a bag because I know I would just eat the whole thing by myself in one sitting.

I don't understand why TJ's doesn't just get a good coffee producer to make like one decent blend for them. IDK, Jim's Organic, Larry's, someone who makes good coffee but isn't as trendy right now as Stumptown and Intelligentsia. I'd pay more for it, even regular high-end coffee price, just to have it as a one-stop-shopping thing and not have to go somewhere else every time I need beans.

REMAINDERED ICE TREATS ALERTif you enjoy mango chile fruit floes, they are now 49cents for a pack of four (regularly $2)i don't even like em that much but it's 49 cents so i got like three, and even though the chile adds a strong spice,you know what's a stronger spice? BARGAIN.

I got the lemon scented kitchen hand soap. The lemon smells like a food additive rather than something that would be used in a lotion or soap. But at least it isn't harsh and drying; I don't think it's warm enough for that yet.
