Greek yogurt, dried pasta, nuts, dried fruit and cheese. I sometimes get their frozen dumplings for a quick meal when I'm in a rush but I won't pretend they're any better than marginally good.

Olive Oil Frozen brown rice Cheese Frozen gnocchi Noodles Nuts The standout though is that frozen brown rice. For pre-cooked it's great.

It's not mind-blowing but for a quick addition to a meal it's very serviceable. Definitely worth a try.

I don't understand the concept. Reminds me of one of my college ex-roommates who would buy frozen Mac & Cheese (the shitty easy mac style kind also).

Unlike mac and cheese, proper brown rice takes about 40 minutes. This is done almost instantly and tastes good.

Oyster crackers.

Coffee is great value.
Frozen garlic naan is awesome.
Their cracker selection is great as well. Most of them being around a buck for a box.

They used to have a condiment called tomato chutney that came in an 8 oz jar. I think this was discontinued recently as I haven't seen it but i could eat it with a spoon. Smoky, spicy, and sweet. Looked like burnt ketchup. That was the best culinary duct tape I have ever come across.

cheap beer/house wines dried fruits, I always get the dried mangosteens/rambutans

I like the raviolis/pastas dried fruit wine

+1 on the frozen meals. You can find relatively low-fat, high protein meals (with varying calorie counts) that are also quite tasty. I think they're not afraid to add spice. I regularly buy their frozen tofu pad thai and kung pao chicken for those nights when I just don't have time to cook.

Their produce sucks.

Edamame Hummus is really good.

Their burritos are actually good for frozen burritos.

Also, I like the idea of the frozen halved avocados.... It seems like when you buy fresh ones, they are never at the right ripeness (in MN anyway).

Love their Mac and Cheese!

Chocolate covered frozen bananas
Frozen panna cotta
water crackers

their Indian fare is great... 2 something dollars per box and it tastes awesome.
