Trader Joe's is paying out $7.4 million to customers who used credit or debit cards between March 5, 2019, and July 19, 2019, after a class action lawsuit claimed the grocery chain violated federal law.

Clover Sonoma is getting back into the sweet treat game, announcing that its ice cream line has once again hit shelves at stores across California as of April 8.

"It was a tidal wave of factors that bear down on you. This is a process that has been happening for years. Nobody is spending, there are protests, strikes, war, all of it comes to bear here."

Trader Joe's has agreed to a $7.4 million settlement over claims that receipts showed too many digits from customers' credit and debit cards. Customers who made purchases between March 2019 and July 2019 may be eligible for a payout, even if they didn't experience identity theft.

Trader Joe's Garlic Spread Dip is sold as a savory refrigerated spread/dip, but the simple ingredient list hints to all kinds of culinary shenanigans.

Trader Joe's carries a collection of chocolate bars that Willy Wonka himself would be proud of, showcasing a diverse selection that appeals to chocolate lovers.

I've been shopping on a budget since I got my first job when I was 14, and I have my weekly grocery shopping routine down to a science at this point. Because I'm always trying to save money, I usually go to two or three stores to make sure I'm getting the best deals on my weekly pantry staples. But the one store I look forward to visiting each week is Trader Joe's.

With 11 grams of protein per serving in the chicken and 8 grams per serving in the beef, all you need to do is prepare the mini tacos per the directions on the package, chop them up, and add them to your salad. My preference is a base of iceberg lettuce, romaine, or both. topped with your crispy taco bites, fresh avocado, pico de gallo, cilantro, green onion, shredded cheese, corn, and black beans.

The milk chocolate bunny bar is one that is difficult to ignore. It comes in a bright box that showcases the festively decorated candy inside. The bunny is coated with anything you might ask for on top of an ice cream sundae - think sprinkles, caramel bits, and white chocolate drizzle, all of which can satisfy a sweet tooth.

Trader Joe's is now king of the grocery aisles, according to the latest American Customer Satisfaction Index. The California-based specialty grocer scored 86 out of 100, up 2% from last year, while Publix remained at 84 for the second consecutive year. H-E-B ranked third at 83, followed by Sam's Club at 82 and Aldi at 81. What makes the win even more impressive is that Trader Joe's keeps opening new stores across the country, which usually hurts consistency.

Trader Joe's differentiates itself from the competition in plenty of ways, but it may particularly surprise TJ's newbies to learn that the store never discounts its products. The reason is simple: Trader Joe's already offers stellar prices on its myriad of offerings. As a long-time Trader Joe's shopper, there are some products I'll never buy anywhere else because TJ's has such excellent deals. Here are some of my favorite bargain buys at the fan-favorite grocer.

Some Trader Joe's items are impossible to resist. As someone who used to work there, I know this better than anyone. Even after three years acquainting myself with products behind the scenes (and meeting my significant other in the process!), I still keep coming back for some of my favorite groceries, from customer favorites to hidden gems. As someone who is neurodivergent, I tend to look for quick, frozen staples and easy-to-make meals.

The theme of this winter at Trader Joe's is shrinkage. Everything new is mini. Shrink-flation, or just adorable? Is this a grocery store for ants? The script really writes itself. We have a little cookies 'n cream cake. We have a personal-sized blooming onion in the freezer department. We have itty-bitty PB&J bites and (terrible) mini chocolate biscuit cookies. We have all that and more, reviewed here today.

Trader Joe's doesn't just have customers; it has devoted fans who go nuts for its unique items and constantly discuss which ones are the best. It's no wonder why the company has its own Customer Choice Awards, which are decided by loyal shoppers who vote on their favorite products. For the 17th annual round of winners, the number one beverage is not a huge surprise: TJ's Spiced Cider took home the crown for a fifth time.
