Trader Joe's Comes To Houston: Secrets Revealed

Finally one of things I had been missing since leaving NY has come to Houston: Trader Joe's.
They have several locations but the closest being the historic Alabama Theater location on Sheppard.



I had a chance to look around in depth and found some of my favorites but also some other gems:

Kosher Homemade Blintzes : $3.99 not a bad price and figured I'll try them

Kosher Onion Rings $1.99 in the snack aisle and these are dairy but fantastic with a sweet onion flavor

Kosher  Corn Chips (dippers) $1.99 (snack Aisle) these are not as salty as others and are organic 

Pareve Ice Cream  Cherry Chocolate $3.29-great price and the best consistency I've ever had for pareve.

Kosher Salami: $2.99 good price!

Wine:
 Sarah B -Moscato -(it's not listed as a kosher wine but has an OU on the back) $6.49!!

Cabernet and Red Wines are just $4! They are actually all rated as very good wines:

There are too many great kosher items to go through so feel free to go check it out for yourself.

Stay tuned for more kosher secrets in Houston!

If you have a favorite item, please share it with the rest of the crowd :)

  1. Sara Bee is definitely OU Kosher. The reds get more attention from Trader Joe's, But Sara Bee is definitely still there. Also Banero Prosecco, the Italian "champagne". Guess the people at TJs don't take wine seriously if it is not dry and red. Be sure to ask for these wines and the Terrenals ($3.99 and $4.99) as they are extraordinary bargains for the kosher community and will soon disappear if not supported. I found that the Banero is no longer available on the West Coast and will never come back. I was looking for it and the manager told me it didn't sell. No sales = no kosher wine. Sammy K
