Can't imagine that TJ's will not extend their Florida network (kind of surprised, from a logistical standpoint, that they started in Naples). Sincerely hope they will open one near TV.
That's not so strange that you found crab cakes in Aldi's that are close to Trader Joes. The owners of Aldi's and Trader Joes are brothers, and although the companies are operated separately, are jointly owned. It's a little more complicated, and this NY Times story tells it better than I.
