Trader Joe's has agreed to a $7.4 million settlement over claims that receipts showed too many digits from customers' credit and debit cards. Customers who made purchases between March 2019 and July 2019 may be eligible for a payout, even if they didn't experience identity theft.
Trader Joe's cinnamon raisin bread was soft, very sweet, and decadently moist. Each slice contained just the right amount of luscious, rich cinnamon sugar swirls and pops of juicy raisins.
Pita Bite Crackers and Original Savory Thin Crackers were deemed to be a couple of the top Trader Joe's crackers in a past ranking because of their versatility and neutrality; they pair well with many items to make your shopping haul easier to assemble.
The manufacturer, Ajinomoto Foods North America, recalled more than 3 million pounds of frozen chicken fried rice that "may be contaminated with foreign material, specifically glass," according to an issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's food safety division last week.
The classic funnel cakes served at the carnival comprise coiled batter, fried in oil and dusted in a generous coating of powdered sugar. More than the scrumptious sweet-savory fried dough flavor, the chief appeal of the treat is its moist, tender insides and crispy, crunchy outsides - and, alas, TJ's spinoff product fails to deliver on that critical textural juxtaposition.

The reason is simple: Trader Joe's already offers stellar prices on its myriad of offerings.

If there's anything that Trader Joe's customers love, it's a new product drop, especially when it involves a trendy item like matcha. So, the hype surrounding the new Jeju Matcha Latte Packets has been no surprise, nor has the fact that fans have spent the last few months trying to perfect the hot drink. The best way to elevate it, apparently, is to make one simple addition that you probably already have in the fridge.
Trader Joe's is always busy on weeknights. Especially so on Thursday in San Francisco's Hayes Valley neighborhood, when a mob of twentysomethings, all holding roses in their hands, flooded one store's produce section. While some slung red baskets over their arms, they weren't shopping for Scandinavian Swimmers. They were looking for love. That crowd gathered for an unofficial Trader Joe's singles mixer. More than 500 people RSVPed to a public event listing on Partiful.
