Great find at trader Joe's
Hi, Everyone!
I made a fantastic discovery at Trader Joe's this evening! Tortilla chips with nutritional value!!! They are Trader Joe's Soy and Flaxseed Tortilla Chips and nut values are as follows:
Serving size: 7 Chips (they are rather large)
Cals: 130
Fat: 8 (a little high)
Carbs: 8 (this is 13 total minus 5 fiber)
Protein: 6 (!!!)
These taste like regular tortilla chips, reaaaaaly yummy. I am a little disppointed with the fat content, but hey, the carb and protein values are great!
Sounds great. Where is there a Trader Joe's? I live near Washington, PA, but go to Pittsburgh for my doctors appointments and every once in a while to work...I am a telcommuter, but work for UPMC and have to go to Pittsburgh occasionally. I've seen a lot of things on this board that people have gotten at Trader Joe's, but I have never seen one.
Thanks for the tip. Hope I can try them some day. I love Tortilla Chips and would love to try them.
Hugs,
Tabby
Hi, Tabby -
The Trader Joe's is on Penn Avenue. If you are comming from Presbyterian Hospital, get onto Forbes ave and go left on Forbes until Craig street, turn left on Craig and follow staight until you hit Fifth Avenue and turn right on Fifth. Follow Fifth stright until you see Penn Ave, turn left on Penn. Get in the right hand lane and go straight until you see a little shopping plaza on your right (the first thing you will see is a McDonald's). Turn right into the plaza and you will see Trader Joe's on your left, past the McDonald's.
I hope that helps!
