Sorry - I have a TJs about a mile away and shop there religiously. I
don't like their fresh fruit or meats - but I buy most everything else
there. I swear by them. From their coffee (currently buying Fair Trade
Breakfast Blend) to their inexpensive cereals to their frozen fish and
vegetables and pizza and side dishes...
