Default New (to me) Trader Joe's find

I know not everyone has a Trader Joe's store available to them, but thought I
would pass my most recent find along. I have had such a taste for a bbq sandwich
lately, but have avoided it due to obvious reasons. g While shopping in Trader
Joe's I noticed in the refrigerated section (the one with the chicken sausages) a
white plastic tub of bbq chicken breast. I looked at the caloric/fat content ...
60 calories, 1g fat per 1/4 cup. Figured I would buy a tub and give it a try. It
was buried in my fridge for a few weeks and I forgot about it ... until today when
I was scrounging for something for lunch and knew all lunchmeat had already been
devoured, as well as lettuce and salad fixins. So out it came, toasted two pieces
of light wheat bread (I forgot to buy light buns) and heated up 1 serving of the
bbq chicken. Dang was this stuff good, and 1/4 cup was more than enough for a
single sandwich!

None here either. And I've scolded Joyce before about bragging such
finds. It's just not fair!

No Trader Joe's near me either Joyce. Would thinly sliced chicken breast
and bbq sauce be similar?

STOP finding new Trader Joe temptations!!!!!!!! (g)

I do need some of their low fat sausages. And, folks, it is within
walking distance of my house as is Whole Paycheck, I mean Whole Foods.
Actually, I could hit both of them in about a 2 mile or less loop.

Oh hell, at least it's in the same *country* as you guys. I have to sit
here reading about these magical things called "skinny cows" that I have no
hope of ever seeing unless I submit to fingerprinting and a 24 hour plane
trip....

Awwww, I'm sorry dear. I have no idea as to how they pick there locations, isn't
much of a regional thing since I am in Chicago and Fred is in Washington - that's
a fur piece apart. g Maybe you could write them and suggest they look into
starting in your area? Maybe they haven't test marketed the area for any
interest? I do love the place though, lots of interesting things.

sniff I'm sorry, please forgive me! I wasn't bragging, really, I wasn't. I
wish everyone had these stores by them. Trader Joes needs to get on the ball.
