    I am obsessed with shopping at Trader Joe’s, so I loved reading this post! I love any of their gnocchi as well as all of their different types of dips. I love to dip their plantain chips in the buffalo style dip. Oh man, I think I’ll have to go have that as a snack now! Thank you for sharing your favorites!
