aventurine Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Trader Joe's ghee does not look like proper ghee....it's separated and grainy. It's not supposed to look like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laura19 Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 I can't go often because it's SO far away but when I went last I got some dried, no sugar added cherries. FTMP I completely resist sugar cravings and I have quit snacking almost completely (I NEVER thought that would happen). But every once in awhile I'll mix a small handful of cherries with a small handful of cashews or almonds. If I have a sweets craving I just can't kick just a couple of bites will satisfy me. I keep seeing people say their cherries have added sugar but the ones I got definitely did not. They were really tart, not overly sweet, and I checked the ingredients. I wonder if all the stores don't have those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wynne Jones Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Coconut aminos. A must-have for The Best Chicken from Well Fed, and they don't sell it in the local stores in my town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobo Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Trader Joe's has dried mango that is nothing but mango, dried apricots with nothing added - no sulphites (they have lots of kinds of dried apricots so you have to be careful), and my favorite although it looks pretty weird and takes some getting used to, flat bananas which are nothing but dried banana. Unfortunately their cherries, cranberries and coconut of all kinds has added sugar! It seems like those "dried, flattened bananas" aren't actually just bananas. They say on the front they are "nothing but dried flattened banana" but the ingredients are "bananas, sulfur dioxide." Noticed that fine print after eating one last night It was a true accident though, I honestly thought it was ok and only had one. So I'm not going back to day one over it, but just sayin'.

Laura Semmens Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Trader Joe's had had unsweetened, unsulphured cherries for awhile now in the dried fruit section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fgermain Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 The ghee I saw @ my TJ's says right on the label "contains dairy" , thus making it noncompliant :-( Did you find one@ TJ's without dairy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirkor Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Well it will always contain dairy (the clarifying/ghee-ifying removes the dairy proteins, leaving the fat), but it must be organic AND from free-range cows: http://whole9life.com/2011/10/butter/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ann@HowcrossCastle Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 My Trader Joe's has bags of shredded Brussels sprouts (not organic) that I just love. Saute 'em with bacon and onions... I can eat two-thirds of the bag at one meal. Yum. At Whole Foods, I get Pedersen's sugar-free bacon, especially when it is on sale. Also grass-fed organic ground beef, organic eggs, and organic butter to clarify. ann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WholeNewMe Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Regarding the TJs Organic Free Range Chicken Broth...these are the ingredients... Organic chicken broth (filtered water, organic chicken), organic onions, organic celery, organic carrots, natural chicken flavor (natural chicken stock, natural chicken flavor, salt), sea salt, organic expeller pressed canola oil and/or safflower oil, organic flavor.I thought that the canola and/or safflower oil would make this non-compliant so I didn't buy it. Am I wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I thought that the canola and/or safflower oil would make this non-compliant so I didn't buy it. Am I wrong? We don't want you buying bottles of canola or safflower oil to use in cooking at home, as they're considered inferior oils. Both are reluctantly allowed for the purposes of dining out and in small quantities in prepared foods like this broth. http://whole30.com/2013/06/the-official-can-i-have-guide-to-the-whole30/ http://forum.whole9life.com/topic/7762-canola-oil/ Of course, homemade broth is the best option, and what we'd recommend.

bridgid10 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 What about applegate bacon? I don't know if it is grass fed and it has added sea salt...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Physibeth Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 What about applegate bacon? I don't know if it is grass fed and it has added sea salt...? 99.9% sure all of applegate's bacon products have sugar added which makes them non-compliant. It is very hard to find sugar free bacon. I've only been successful at one store locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweet_rachel Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I picked up some Wellshire sugar free bacon at Whole foods yesterday. It's the only one I have found locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilbitbhind Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Can I add Sam's Club into the topic? I don't have a WF, TJ or Costco local. I've searched Sam's Club and my store carries very few organic or compliant foods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcoffeeisnotthatbad Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I went to Whole Foods the other day and I got: under the "Made fresh here" category -guacamole, to dump on salads as fat (had forgotten how quickly that stuff goes bad) -pineapple salsa (instead of bingeing on entire pineapple, couple spoonfuls nice mixed with some coconut shreds or, what I want to try is putting it on top of fish) specialty items: -coconut aminos (primary reason for visit) -coconut butter (disappointed... somehow thought it would be something else, but saving it until I run out of coconut oil or after W30) produce: -huge 1lb container of mixed greens -1lb crimini mushrooms, presliced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jhana Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Today WF had a kale "slaw" with avocado. ingredients were kale, avocado, tomato, onion, lemon, maybe one other thing but all compliant. it's really good, also cheap because it's light and they measure by the pound, but they said they don't have it a lot. i guess if i ask enough they'll make it more often.

PamelaG Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Nope, no soy in the free range chicken broth: just double-checked the label on my box at home. Trader Joe's Organic Free Range Chicken Broth has canola oil and/or safflower oil. Aren't those on the prohibited list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
