I pretty much love everything at Trader Joe’s—from the panko-crusted chicken to the E=MC2 salsa/gauc—so why do they have such lousy salads-to-go in their pre-packaged section? I’m not talking about the awesome chicken salad or the tabbouli salad, but the green salads, bland, watery…eh…weak. Any other Trader Joe’s items you either swear by or have sworn off?

LOVE LOVE LOVE their potstickers. They taste great, no msg, etc. My husband is Chinese & now those are the only ones we will eat (unless he is ambitious enough to make them himself. That happens about twice a year!)
