I'm with ya Ben.RIC_FACTORY wrote:Great thing about TJ's is that their stores are known for the wide aisles and easy access to certain (especially dairy) sections. Never any trouble with people parking their shopping carts in front of the cheeses and deliberating for ten minutes between low fat double smoked gloucester with chives and slow churned Irish goat yogurt cheddar. Now that they have decided to sell produce, you have to make deft zig zag manuevers around those organic Chilean Kiwis and inconveniently stacked 12 packs of cheap, water down 2 buck "Simpler Times" beer that wisely, no one purchased (I wasn't so wise). Also, the fact that their bread has 0 preservatives in it forces you to wolf down an entire loaf in roughly 36 hours before it gets covered in mold. I guess they want to make sure you get all that good fiber from their rustic sheepherder's sourdough bread with raisins.
At least, this is the normal experience I have at my local store when I go there every weekend...
Sometimes variety sucks. I'm not too into high-brow hippie cuisine, which TJ's seems to specialize in.
Sometimes you just want macaroni and cheese without needing aged brazilian camel peppercorn and 12 grain whole wheat vegan macaroni pasta imported from sicily. I'll just take Kraft blue box and some hot dogs.
