TJ’s is one of many companies that we’re deprived of by living in Hawaii. The excuse is usually that they wouldn’t be able to keep their prices low. We’re already used to crazy prices so what’s one more store but one that has some good sh… stuff?
Staying on The Strip, Uber prices were around $40 each way for both locations, but luckily a local family member offered to drive me and the spouse.
I’m not a TJ expert so I can’t compare this location to others, but this one is pretty quaint in size. Parking was plentiful within the Longford Shoppes strip mall.
THE GOODS:
Cookie Butter is out, nuts and chips are in for me!
A Trio of Almonds
My favorite snack that I believe is seasonal (winter?). The caramel coffee-coated ones are the tastiest, followed by the sesame honey. The third is simply salted.
Nuts About Rosemary Mix
Mix of almonds, cashews, pecans and hazelnuts in a lightly salty and herby seasoning.
Everything But The Bagel Nut Duo
Very uninspiring bag of cashews and almonds. Love the seasoning though.
Step Up To The Snack Bar Mix
The ultimate snack that goes with any beverage! Honey mustard pretzels, honey roasted peanuts & sesame sticks, flax seeds corn chips, cheese crackers & chili lemon corn sticks.
Happy Trekking Trek Mix
Low sodium but tasty mix of almonds, not-so-sweet chocolate morsels, cashews, pistachios, cranberries & cherries. Love it!
Olive & Herbs Mixed Nuts
Lightly-salted and herby-seasoned almonds, cashews, pecans & dried olives.
Giant Peruvian Inca Corn Snacks
My cousin got this, so I got a bag to try. Big kernels, yes, but simply salted with no wow-factor. It should be seasoned with something bolder than salt.
Garlic & Black Pepper Almonds
The problem with this is all the seasoning is at the bottom of the package, so you’re pretty much left with peppery-flavored nuts. Pass.
Everything But The Bagel Potato Chips
Only one expression is needed: O.M.G.
SERVICE:
Cashier was friendly and speedy.
OVERALL:
Just another grocer but one with unique and delish, store-branded goods.
