I have seen your heat tolerance with your meals description. You and @Miss_belle, who eats everything with a chili on the side! I don’t enjoy spice that much. Probably good, because I don’t want to pay $15/bottle for sriracha. I don’t even really like the stuff!
Then def stay away from the hot Italian sausage! Hotter than sriracha.
I wasn’t even remotely tempted

The chicken breakfast sausage in the same case is also very good, I tried it relatively recently because someone had recommended it.
At the risk of TMI, my husband and I bought and ate some chicken apple sausages once many years ago, and afterwards suffered an entire day (it seemed) of constant tooting. We laugh about it, but have never again dared to buy any chicken sausages!
I eat their chicken sausages all the time without this, ahem, issue.

I’m just traumatized by the previous experience!

That is correct

Not a hill I would die on, but there ARE nine separately wrapped bars in there…… right?
I don’t believe anyone here is maintaining otherwise!

Sriracha is way too sweet for me, and not spicy in the least.
I’m hoping that they’d introduce some scotch bonnet links, or merguez (they’ve already got the harissa!)
On the topic of Maghrebi dishes, lablabi might be a hit these days.

MEH - Trader Joe’s Guacasalsa
This is exactly why the Smuckers Goober (aka a jar of peanut butter and jelly mixed together) is also an utter fail for me.

Yes, I don’t find sriracha spicy either, nor do I think tabasco is hot. Have you tried their hot Italians?
That stuff used to scare me when I’d see it in the store.

Sounds like a good choice, but I didn’t know they had 'em.
(anything else that you like at TJ’s that you also find sufficiently spicy? the ghost pepper salsa?)
Their habanero sauce packs a nice punch. I’ve not tried the ghost pepper salsa.
Yay to Trader Joe’s whole bean Joe coffee. 100% Arabica, medium roast, makes good espresso. I’m a fan for $5/14 oz.

I cut up the Pound Plus for eating out of hand, but it’s neither neat nor easy. Glad to be enough of a This Old House fan to remember how stonemasons hammer wedges into granite to induce it to split!

We didn’t make it to the 5-Hour-away TJ’s this week. Maybe in the spring. Thank you for all the ideas, though.
