Patently untrue thing I said today: “I will open this tub of #TraderJoes crispy oatmeal chocolate chip cookies 🍪 & only eat one”

Hey @TraderJoesList Love your food, so good, so cheap, keeping me afloat in NYC, but WHY DO YOU PUT THE SAUCE PACKETS UNDERNEATH THE SALAD IN YOUR TO-GO SALADS? #traderjoes

My cashier at #TraderJoes convinced me that these so-called carrot spirals were “sooo good.” They’ve sat in my freezer for 3 months. Today I made them... and they’re SOOOO GOOD. I’ll never doubt my #TJ cashier again! (And Slinky approves too!) #traderjoes #rescuedog pic.twitter.com/vqDtVmOGrI

Just got banned for life from #TraderJoes in a dream. I only go there about once a year because it's a sensory overload for me.

Scene:
(Me wearing headphones shopping in TJ. Raw chicken juice begins to spill from my cart. I notice and start cleaning when employee arrives)

In #YouCantMakeThisStuffUp news: The TJ’s bagger just asked me an amazing question. “How many 10 year olds do you think you could take? Like before they had the edge?” - I said 5. He was pleased and agreed. #TraderJoes
