re: Trader Joe's FTW!!

I don't like the store. My reasons are:

Way too much pre-packaged shite. I'm buying 4 apples, why do they need to be in a plastic clamshell type thing.

Their pre-packaged salads and the like, which many people rave about, is just average to me.

They strong arm small businesses by allowing them to sell in their stores and if they sell well they tell them, "we will continue to sell your product, but you have to give up your identity and have our name on it".

The prices just aren't that great.
