Those last things look like a lot like Turkish pide. I wonder if that’s the goal? I’ve yet to see them but will grab them for sure when I do.
I found the shrimp sugarcane skewers to be just okay. They’re tasty but a little bit rubbery/wet from being frozen. Not nearly as good as versions in restaurants.
The pide I’ve had don’t curl up that far, nor do the khachapuri, so I’m confused as to what they are trying to appropriate here.
I’ve found a few of their pizze / flatbreads to be satisfactory in the past, i.e. the Alsatian tart, but nothing mind-blowing. Will await your assessment here.
I like the Rosemary Ham. Good for a few small sandwiches.
TJ Potato Chips first bites always an adventure. These were no different. Interesting but won’t buy again. Minus points for smelly fingers afterwards.
Great crisp on these but overwhelming dried parsley taste. Sure there is a good combo with these but haven’t found it.
Have found it is better to use scissors and food saver clips with most TJ products. They just open weird.
Agree. Serving with an herby cheese helps temper the parsley a bit.
I am wary of fried frozen foods in general, even with the air-fryer doing a much better job these days. We are also spoiled in our area for great, reasonably priced Vietnamese food easily accessible.
First time trying the Kouign Amann, which someone said was seasonal. I think they tasted good after being baked, but it was a bit messy. Not sure if I accidentally let it defrost a bit before I got them home, but I found them to be leaking out some sort of syrupy base. Yikes! They are surprisingly flat, but it did make them easier to eat. Decent flakiness, and not overly sweet (for a pastry).
Very happy that the Korean cinnamon pancakes (hotteok) are back!
That sounds like a pass for me. My favorite (locally) is the version from Flour, which is quite puffy and deliciously caramelized.
Just sampled the Clotted Cream Fudge, which I believe is a new(ish) item.
I’m a big fan of condensed milk and this basically tastes like solidified condensed milk. On the other hand, it’s unapologetically, achingly, absolutely sweeeeeeet. The bag inside the box contains maybe 20 little nuggets of “fudge.” I had one and I was done. Which would have been a bonus if I didn’t have various Christmas cookies in the house to have as a secondary dessert…
Not awful. Probably will finish it (very slowly). Will almost certainly never buy again, but no regrets on this one. So I’ll give it a solid MEH.
Cardboard with very little cheese. In my opinion a total waste.
Well, that’s a solid statement right there. Thanks for saving me money 
Well, saying fudge is too sweet is just describing fudge 
It was a YEA for me, but I won’t buy it more than once a year like many other delicious treats I don’t need to consume an entire package of (the mint-filled dark chocolate nuggets that taste like After 8 are in the same grouping).
I need something to balance the sweetness. Have you tried the frozen brigadeiros? Another condensed milk sort of thing but creamier than the Clotted Cream Fudge and fairly chocolatey. I’m a huge fan. (Straight out of the freezer; ignore the defrost instructions.)
YAY Buffalo Chicken Meatballs in refrigerated section. One of 3 flavors, already cooked. Nice kick. I heated up in the oven, forgot to look at calories and sodium.
Mine said good until February 5, so long shelf life.
