I'm glad you brought this thread back to life Kgirl.
I've been wanting to sing the praises of their new YUZU hot sauce... It’s the spicy, citrusy, kicky, tart, acidic, vinegary wonder ingredient that truly has bowled me over. I'm crazy about this stuff!!
Read about what to do with it here...

K-L, we're not real big Hot Sauce fans... is it real hot or ???
No, it's not a big deal hot Kgirl. SC isn't a hot sauce fan either, but he hasn't even noticed it's there in some of my cooking. The other flavor notes are more pronounced than the heat. There's nothing else like it on the market..
"sour, hot, salty and sweet" The citrus note is enticing.
Ross, have you done a search on Amazon yet?
I found many of their products there … just a thought
Yes... And Aldi has many similar products..
I miss browsing the aisles, checking out various things and just the fun of TJ's..

I know what you mean Ross. Not to mention their Hawaiian shirt happy staff are the best of the best, all the time. I'm not a fan of grocery shopping in general, but TJ's is a whole nutter ball game. SC does the supermarket shopping but TJ's is my happy place.
Yes it is...
Jeannie's son semi-retired a few years back and took a job @ TJ's in San Diego.. He enjoys it so much that he figured it a new career... A happy place, for certain..

Pita chips are one thing, or rather several things (as they have a number of delicious varieties), that I stock up on when I go to TJs, as there is not one very close. Maybe I'm lucky, as I know some things that I would eat too often, if it were nearby!
I've had them both. The ones from TJ's seem thicker to me. When it comes to chips of any kind, personally I think the thinner the better. Besides, I can always get Stacey's at Market Basket only 7 miles away. The nearest TJ's is almost 25. Still worth the trip any time we make it!I was watching a You Tube video the other night,
and they claimed that TJ's Pita Chips are made
by Stacy's, which is my favorite brand...
