you need to hook up some recipes. My apartment is literaly right behind one of these 888 markets, and I would love to try to make some asian stuff, but am completely lost when it comes to cooking that style of food.

Include pics of the ingredients, since everything in the store is in chinese (or whatever).

My dad is a HUGE tea connoisseur so I get him those Chinese teas from there. He digs them.

Trader Joes sells quality while Aldi sells garbage. You're typically on the very wrong side of things so your disdain of Trader Joes only further confirms it's Awesomeness.

Bullshit. It's the same stuff. The only difference is TJs is trendy with the food and offers more kinds of products.

it seems decent quality to me. I'd shop at Aldi's, but I never seem to have a quarter to use a ****ing cart. What kind of shit is that anyways? locking up the carts, went there once to shop, didn't have any change, saw that you had to put in a quarter for a ****ing cart that you will use to put stuff in so that they can charge you. So I just got back in my car and went across the street to Target instead. Never been back, never will.

Why do you think people wearing uniforms would especially like 888 International Market?

ITT: People hating on cheap food.

...I don't get it.

I think Stewie is just totally jelly of my lemon triple ginger ice cream from TJ's. They must've been out when he went to get some.

Is there a website that reveals what the real brands are behind the Trader Joe’s packaging?

As a wholesale food producer, I’m not a big fan of the place – I think the people that created these things that everyone seems to love should get recognition for it.

I'd like to know as well; there are no TJs in my area and I'd love to be able to procure some peachy awesomeness.

So what? It's still cheap and tasty. I don't understand why everyone is hating on it so hard.

They're being trendy by hating on what's trendy?
