You might not have done it in a while, at least in person. But one place that&#8217;s fun to shop is Trader Joe&#8217;s. Describing itself as &#8220;your neighborhood grocery store,&#8221; Trader Joe&#8217;s has some pretty good products at pretty good prices. It&#8217;s the place to go if you like Whole Foods but you can&#8217;t afford Whole Foods. The vibe is laid back, the staff is always friendly, there are fun little oddities you can&#8217;t get anywhere else, and it has inexpensive but almost always drinkable booze. Usually the biggest problem with shopping at TJ&#8217;s is navigating through the crowd of rude liberals who don&#8217;t think they need to be civil to other people in real life because they donate to Greenpeace and the Sierra Club.<\/p>\n<p>Jim Treacher, <a href=\"https:\/\/pjmedia.com\/culture\/jim-treacher\/2020\/07\/20\/trader-joes-apologizes-for-being-racist-n663197\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">&#8220;Trader Joe&#8217;s Apologizes for Being Racist&#8221;, <em>P.J.
