Experimental Trader Joe's products:
reduced fat baked potato chips. A tasty success.
Chocolate-covered ridge cut potato chips. Oh god, a success.
Air-popped "skinny fries". Not particularly tasty and the experience of eating them isn't all that enjoyable yet my fingers keep going for them. Shelved, and I contemplate simply throwing them out as a unworthy. They're also ostensibly the least healthy of the bunch; the first has a higher potassium/sodium ratio and fiber and vitamin C, and the second at least has fiber, chocolate's sneaky that way.
Also tried: low sodium tomato juice, good; and spiced apple cider, good.
I've been having European-style yogurt for a while, quite good. I suppose I could try the non-fat instead of whole milk version. This is a rather runny yogurt, much like my homemade yogurt back when I tried, and not at all like the newly popular Greek style yogurt, which seems to be obligatorily non-fat and screened for "double the protein" and more solid than jello. I tried that once.
There's a new cheese at TJ, toscano coated with cinnamon. The cheese itself is an okay not-quite-hard cheese; the cinnamon goes well with it and makes it seem sweet, even though sugar isn't involved.
