Try something new at Trader Joe's

OK, here’s the game:

Next time you go to Trader Joe’s get something you haven’t tried before and tell us how you like it. No cheating and reporting on something you’ve already tried!

Mine: Organic Tomato & Roasted Red Pepper Soup. This is in a quart box and unrefrigerated. Just heat and eat. 100 Calories per serve, 20 from fat. Very smooth texture. It tastes very good, certainly much better than other store-bought tomato soups I’ve had. I thought it needed just a shake of salt, and I think it would have been very tasty with a dollop of sour cream.

I’ve also not tried the Wasabi Tamari Almonds before. Pretty snack, says I. A bit of a smoky taste and the wasabi suggest these would be good with a beer.

I like to add Italian seasoning to that soup.

Okay. The last time I went to Trader Joe’s I tried the Very Mini Vanilla Meringues (One Calorie each!!!) which tasted great…if you only ate maybe four. Then the flavor got a little strange. But then I have problems with really sweet things tasting funny these days, so it might be just me…

Oh, yeah. Last time I went I tried their coffee ice cream. I’m not one who eats a lot of ice cream, but this stuff was good. I think I’ll get some more in a few weeks.
