It’s got its roots in the South, and there’s a good chance you’ve never even heard of it if you’re on the West Coast.

Why You Shouldn’t Wait For Trader Joe’s To Have A Sale Andriy Blokhin/Shutterstock By Rachel Pasche/Nov. 30, 2021 11:24 am EST Trader Joe’s is a special sort of place, not quite a normal grocery store, not quite a specialty foods store — but something in-between that’s a little cozier and comfier. While we absolutely love Trader Joe’s, it’s not like other grocery stores in many ways. For one, they exclusively carry items from their own brand, giving you tons of fun options that you might not be able to find elsewhere (and some of these items have cult followings, like their various dips, cookie butter, orange chicken, and cauliflower gnocchi, among others)....
