I don't know the flavor of Chinese cooking wine (saki?), but I never like any wine. I'd use rice vinegar, and if I liked star anise I'd use Chinese 5 spice (but I don't, so I'd just use onions and garlic!)
OMG--do you like mushrooms? I've been obsessed with TJ"s frozen mushroom medley- they're a blend of different mushrooms in a mildly seasoned olive oil. Perfect to add to steamed cabbage. I'd love that with those Troflie pasta I linked above

I put the mushrooms and the cabbage on my TJ shopping list
I also went to the Farmer's market for salad fixings and bought a cabbage for that stir fry.
I have 5 Chinese spice and balsamic so I I will try that cabbage tonight.

At TJ's this morning and tried these-I got with my son in mind, he didn't like them, I loved them-
Mee Krob Snackers $2.99
Flavor reminded me of the vegan Pad Thai at my favorite Thai place.
the texture is like pressed crispy rice vermicelli

Just made TJ's fishless fillets. Three large pieces, baked at 450 F for total of 25 minutes. They're greasy, and I wish the breading would be more crispy. I think I crave fried batter more than whats in it most of the time.
They have jackfruit and oyster mushrooms. I liked them, my son loves them. $2.99
I prefer Gardein, but I never look in meatless section anymore so I haven't seen them in so long!
Looks a lot better than they do on box, and the box is so unappealing!

I've had that a few times. I made them in my air fryer. IMHO, the breading is the best part.
I've never had the Gardine version. I guess now I have to add them to my list.

I didn`t see your question concerning the fishless fillets.
I don`t like them because for some reason both the taste and texturemake me feel squeamish. However,I usually do like all other brands of fishless/prawnless/crabless products.

Does anyone buy their organic tuscan kale?
I normally buy this whole leaves but I liked the idea of 'triple washed'
. I had a feeling I had theirs before and shouldn't get it-Should have listened! It's before the expire date, has yellowing leaves, and sooooo many woody stems! I had to put it all in a big colander and pick through it and wash it, far more work than I would have had with whole

Some new items.
the one that is most interesting to me is the Jumeokbap.

the one that is most interesting to me is the Jumeokbap.
Jumeokbap means “fist rice” and often refers to how these seasoned rice balls look like a little fist. ...Trader Joe’s added seasoned bits of vegan bulgogi and shredded vegetables to make for a sweet-savory snack that steams up in just a minute in the microwave.
I'm also tempted to try the Everything but the Bartender Classic Lime Margaritas. Maybe when it's a bit warmer. might be nice by the pool6 Not-to-Be-Missed Trader Joe’s Groceries That Just Hit Stores

I thin I want to try those! I've heard the Kimbap (SP?) is good, but I dislike nori
The shelled edamame were absent for some time. I used to always have them on hand to add to work lunches, straight from the freezer, adding to salads or grains, and they dethawed just fine. I got a bag recently and added to salads--they seem quite undercooked! Not enough to give me a stomach ache, but enough to be unpleasant! I did it again and had to pick them out
I mean of course I can just boil them in the microwave, but not happy about extra prep
The ones in shell are just fine
I was disappointed to learn that TJ's has discontinued its vegan mayo. I actually liked that mayo, and it was not too pricey. I kept looking for it throughout the store, thinking maybe they moved it somewhere, but when I asked at the register, they said it was discontinued.
the avocado stuff? I still remember the old fat free mayoI was disappointed to learn that TJ's has discontinued its vegan mayo. I actually liked that mayo, and it was not too pricey.

Which brings up another point about companies delibrately keeping foods from being vegan. Regular mayo is oil, milk and eggs and some flavor. Vegan mayo is oil, soy milk, and some flavor. The only vegan mayo that is the equivalent of the regular kind is Hellmans, and not even found everywhere. There are other vegan mayos which are either low fat with starches added, or have unusual things like avocado. People like vegan mayo when it tastes like mayo!!
Same with so many products that could be just the same when eggs or dairy milk are excluded, but instead they stock ones that are so completely different--even most vegan pizzas have gluten free crust!

No, it was just a regular vegan mayo. They have some sort of vegan truffle oil aioli or something, but I just wanted regular ol' vegan mayo.the avocado stuff? I still remember the old fat free mayo
Oh that wasn't regular mayo! I didn't try it because of the avocado oil, but it had chickpea liquid too--
