I'd rather have a Wegmans than a Trader Joes (I have TJs, and the closest Wegmans is about 60 miles away). I yearn for WNY grocery stores, Sophia.
Zoe: Yeah? Thought you'd get land crazy that long in port. Wash: Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

They are indeed two words. Also two words: entropic gastronomy.
But can you find it at Trader Joe's?

Because books.
I do love Wegman's, but it's not cheap. Excellent produce, meat, cheese, and organic sections, though.
Thanks for posting those links, smonster! Yum.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
But can you find it at Trader Joe's?
I do not know. But I would give it better odds than at Whole Foods.

It is a little funny that Wegman;s is one of the best parts of WNY. I mean, we take tourists there! I am torn though, because they have actually almost totally abandoned the city for the suburbs (only one store remains within city limits) and they are difficult to access with public transport.
It does seem cheaper than Tops on many things, but I spend more ther because of the cheese section.

Trader Joe's has great cheeses, and the frozen pastries and tortes are good. I haven't been terribly impressed with the frozen meals.

Pub cheese!!
Man, I have to buy that for The Boy every week. He's addicted to it, on pretzels.
I love their shelf-stable microwaveable Thai lime rice. I sautee scallops and then serve them over the rice and it is awesome.
Also, they have crackers made out of edamame that are, ISTG, made of some kind of magic heroin or something. I cannot stop eating them.
And their gluten-free ginger snaps are tasty. (As are their Joe-Joe's, which are not gluten-free, but I still have them once a week.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I try not to buy it every week. For a while I was all about those half-cracker, half-pretzel crackers from the supermarket, but then I tried it on the rice crackers, and now I'm sold.

Sparky, there's a Wegman's in Fairfax, isn't that closer than 60 miles? I know there's a few in Virginia, it was big news when they opened (shortly before I left town--I never ended up going there). Not that Fairfax is exactly easy shopping, but on a weekend if you were heading there for some other shopping too...

Now tagless for your comfort.
There are only two TJ's in my entire state. Both are over a two hour drive.
