When we lived in San Diego county there was a Trader Joe's in the city next to us. It was not impressive. The bulk of the offerings were frozen. Very little fresh foods. While the frozen foods were quite good, we rarely shopped there. Too many better choices. It may be different now as it's been 10 years since we left there.
When we went to visit my son and his family in Chicago, they mentioned they shopped a lot at Trader Joe's and, since it was right across the street from our hotel, we stopped in. It was completely different. Most of the food was fresh and far less frozen. Many interesting things we didn't see elsewhere. The Gainesville store is much more similar to what we saw in Chicago. We go there every so often and enjoy the drive.
