Yes but they are really too dangerous to buy again, lol.

All I know is âfree rangeâ is meaningless
Yes. I agree. Just that they already have this. Unless its just purely a stock vs broth difference.

Evaluations of some new products:
It tastes like basic boxed broth. I was underwhelmed.
Purple Maize cereal. Terrible, and salty. They might as well have made flakes out of the cereal box, because it wouldâve been the same darn taste.

Which means it tastes like how their other stock tastes like then. Thanks.
Pretty much, wonât buy again and not even sure why I did given Iâve never been impressed with the broth before.
The Costco chicken stock is good for its price. Tastes actually like chicken.
Thatâs the one I keep around when I donât have frozen homemade.
Milk Chocolate chocolate loverâs bar, a single origin bar sourced from Colombia, is a yeah. Smooth texture, lacks the puckering buttery feel of Cadbury, or the waxy bend rather than snap feel of Hersheys. Thereâs some complexity to it, but when I bite instead of letting it melt, Iâm reminded of Hersheyâs kisses.

YAY: Just Beets beet chips. Good crunch, very beety flavor. If youâre one of those very few weirdos who donât like beets, you definitely wonât like these.
YAY: Hatch Chile Mac & Cheese (frozen). I think their regular frozen mac & cheese is pretty decent, for what it is, and this is just the regular mac & cheese plus Hatch chiles. The only downside is that the Hatch version is in 12 oz portions as opposed to 14 oz for the regular.

Yay to the butternut squash fresh ravioli (made in Italy) â the pasta is delicate & thin. I served them in fresh sage browned butter and my mom made me go back to TJs for a couple more packages.
Yay to the jarred mustard garlic aioli, which has a nice sharpness and not a lot of calories.
Yay to the Unexpected Cheddar, which is delicious if youâre a fan of dry-ish aged cheddar w crystals.
and the Underwood canned pinot noir wine. (The TJ canned fizzy rosé was pretty awful tho!)

Iâm not sure i understand this as a snack productâŠ! Does the back of the package have serving ideas? I could only imagine using these in hot tea or maybe sangriaâŠ
To me, the Unexpected Cheddar is similar to, but moister than, Dubliner. I like both.
Since @Souperman mentioned in this post that the Dark Chocolate Loverâs bar might be a repackaging of the Casa Luker 1906 Tumaco 85% Extra Dark bar:
And regarding the Milk Chocolate Loverâs Bar, Trader Joeâs says âweâve been able to develop a milk chocolate version with this same supplierâ. I looked up Casa Lukerâs milk chocolate product line, and looks like they have a 45% milk as well.
Its definitely a yay. For $1.69, its a big yay.
The above pics are baking chocolate, I couldnât quite find their bar chocolate product line.

Iâve seen the âMilk Chocolate Loverâsâ bars at TJâs already.

Just stumbled across this fascinating document about how Casa Luker was driven out of business by violent threats in 2013 but was resuscitated by a partnership with USAID that also created a larger chocolate co-operative.
