Can't really answer about living up to the hype because we have been "fans" of Trader Joe's for some time. Used to make a monthly trip to the one near us back when we lived in CT. But yes we still like the store and the unique selection of items they have. Picked up a few of the store brand items such as: eggplant parm, spinach dip, potato pancakes, couple of specialty pastas and some deserts. Not to be forgotten we got a case of "two buck Chuck" wine to let friends here try. I would also add that as much as we like Trader Joe's we would not make a special trip of over an hour one way to go there. But since we are in Gainesville once every three months then we most certainly would stop there. Would love to see one closer to TV.
