1) Frozen turkey burgers--I get anxious when they're out of stock

2) Nourish conditioner--excellent for dry/curly hair and very affordable

3) 2 lb. bag of white corn chips (a steal at $3.29)

4) Chicken tempura (can't seem to find the shrimp tempura anymore)

5) Extra virgin olive oil

6) Strawberry floes

7) Joe Joes ice cream

8) Those maple leaf cookies

9) Milk chocolate bars with caramel they have by the checkout

I also really like their frozen brown rice and it's so convenient, but I felt like making it myself was more economically sensible : ) And I haven't bought their chocolate croissants in a few years, but they're heavenly.

The frozen croissants, either chocolate or almond...pumpkin is seasonal. Set them out on a cookie sheet overnight and they grow massively.

Nuts and dried fruits.

Argentina red shrimp.

European sipping chocolate...seasonal during fall til they run out.

Lemon bars.

Poutine...may not be authentic, but I like it.

I love their....

- Flourless organic sprouted wheat bread - delicious! It's not Trader Joe brand but they sell it there.
- Gluten free rice and quinoa pasta - I'm not gluten free but I love this pasta and it fills me up so much quicker than regular pasta because of the protein from the quinoa.
- Organic salt free marinara sauce
- Low sodium yogurt cheese
- Frozen green chile tamales
- Low sugar blueberry jam
- Their selection of organic frozen veggies
