Trader Joe’s Does Organic Right

I went shopping at Trader Joe’s the other night, and discovered a whole new type of grocery store. Granted I’d been in different ones a few times before, but I had never shopped there MYSELF. I went with a friend who is a vegetarian and swears by the chain. They have many different items that are organic, tasty, and also good for you. I picked up some ‘…this ___ walks into a bar’ cereal bars, which are organic, low in fat, and only 140 yummy calories a bar. I left the blank there because they come in different flavors. You can buy them in fig, strawberry, apple, and blueberry. I opened a box of the apple ones today and ate a bar for a snack. I must say, they are delicious! And not what you’ve come to expect from typical ‘filling’ in cereal bars, that use all those atrificial ingredients. I’ve had other cereal bars, and these by far are the best. Trader Joe’s also has a section of nutrition and energy bars. I also bought some Luna bars for women, and liked them so much I’d buy a whole box of them in Peanut Butter Cookie. The Trader Joe’s green and white iced tea with mint is also satisfying and refreshing, and is 0 calories per glass. Another item I bought was the Organic Honey & Oats cereal. Haven’t had that yet, but I’m sure it’s just as good. I’ll have it for breakfast tomorrow morning when I get in from work.
