This is a multi-day sensory extravaganza, where our panelists focus all their attention taste, value, and all the attributes that make a product just right for the holiday season lineup at Trader Joe’s. Best of all, each of these gems is now available at your neighborhood Trader Joe’s, just for the ho-ho-holiday season. Transcript (PDF)
