Trader Joe’s 15th Annual Customer Choice Awards Winners Are Here

Simply Recipes / Photo Illustration by Sarah Crowder / Ciara Kehoe There’s so much to love about Trader Joe’s...the dupes of trendy foods, the ample selection of frozen dinner solutions, and the limited edition seasonal products that seem to fly off shelves. Everyone has their own favorite TJ’s products—mine are the Papadums Lentil and Chickpea Chips and, last year’s cheese winner, Cheddar Cheese with Caramelized Onions .
