Ok Orlando Trader Joe’s, you have some false advertising going on… When we popped in the other day for a healthy
bite to eat during a festival where we were subsisting on fried foods
(including FRIED CHEESE CURDS and FRIED PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY SANDWICHES) for
12 days, I thought I had hit the tasty jackpot with this Carrot and Cilantro
Bulgur Grain Salad (with garbanzo beans).
I mean, I love cilantro! And I really
like garbanzo beans. Carrots are nice. And bulgur grain, well, sure, I can eat
it. And your sign, your sweet little
handwritten sign, specifically said, “So good!”.

| "So Good!" - got me!! |

| Avoid this salad. Unless you enjoy eating dry, bland, yucky stuff. If so, stock up on this salad. |
This salad is BLECK. The main
problem is that it is dry. Sure, if I had been at home instead of under a
festival beer tent, I could have doctored it up with a bit of olive oil and
lemon or something, but really, when one invests $3.69 into a tiny container of
salad, should one be expected to “doctor it up”?? I think not.
And I would have had to add A LOT of stuff to give it any sort of taste. And, if I could add one more complaint here,
there was not nearly enough cilantro! That
was the ingredient that might have saved this wreck of a salad, but it was
barely in there.

| Thumbs down for this overpriced, under tasty salad. |
David also thought this was crappy, as you can see.
 |
| Bleck. |
Fool me once, Orlando Trader Joe’s signs, shame on you… I am not going to be duped by you again!
