    For those who don't know: Trader Joe's private labels many brands as Trader Joe's products. They partner with brands that a board of taste testers has tasted and scored and pick one brand for each snack/product. The brand they partner with also signs an NDA in the process so there is speculation as to what brand is what but no confirmation.

    • @mostdope216

      A big reason why is that they contain two novel peptides in fairly large concentrations that lend them to having a fairly high level of "umami" or savory taste...combine this with the amount of proteins in peanuts and it is no small wonder that they are one of the most beloved members of the legume family (they are technically beans and not truly nuts.).@@poempadgett4664

    Hello! Friendly little Spanish lesson~🥸
    The pepper called Jalapeño, originates from Mexico, and in Mexico, although the alphabet letters are almost the same (except for an extra letter) the sound of the letters are pretty different. That being said, the letter J (jota) makes a H sound (ho-ta)😇 if anyone cares anyway😅

    • @Serai3
      @Serai3 Месяц назад +4

      But it's not an "h" sound. It's different from "h" because the tongue is pressed against the roof of the mouth. I know to a Spanish speaker it feels natural and thus not noticeable, but believe me, it's a different sound.

    • @N3v3r_S3ttl3
      @N3v3r_S3ttl3 Месяц назад +11

      The "J" sound in Spanish is closer to the "G" sound or "CH" in Dutch or German, with a soft throat sound, than to "H" in English. That's how I pronounce Spanish names and words with a "J".

      Many years ago TJ's was more expensive overall. You could find a few underpriced items, but to use it as your standard grocery store was a little pricey. However, over the last decade I've noticed TJ becoming more affordable and on par with other stores like Albertson's, Safeway, Raley's (most stores with unionized staff) etc...

    Trader Joe's is great for getting a lot of healthier foods as well. They use less artificial preservatives, and often have a great produce section and a rotating selection of premade salads. A lot of their frozen meals are really tasty, and often healthier than brands that are labeled as healthy. Lots of snacks like dried fruit, and plenty of drinks without any sugar or artificial flavoring. Surprisingly good rotating selection of beers and wines too.

Mr. Joe and Mrs. Alice Coloumbe were my clients and lifetime members of the opera board. I have fond memories of them...they were very 'homey' people and I was friendly with two of their three children. To this day, I have clothing they gave me to wear to the galas. They were very down-home, unpretentious people. Mrs. Coloumbe kind of ran the show as far as their personal lives but Joe was a cool cat in business. Very pleasant gentleman.

      different, not sensitive. We have our own flavoured things that the Americans find unusual, too much or unpleasant but we're used to.

      They are a cute couple! Theo always goes all in and Lorenzo is a bit more reserved...but less than he used to be!

    The way kids just physically push away anything they don't like it's like they won't even pretend to like it, adorably honest😂😂I wish i could be that honest 🫠

    Pralines is pronounced "Pray leans" here in America. Thats my best way of saying it phonetically.

      @@leapintothewild That's because New Orleans has so much French influence. It's how the French say it, and it's a French word originally.

    Bamba is given to babies in its country of origin & there was a study done that linked it with the lower incidence of peanut allergies, which has since impacted the approach to allergies in early childhood.
