11 Frozen Meals You Should Always Skip At Trader Joe's

1. Breaded Fried Ravioli: Dry, gritty breading overwhelms sparse cheese filling. Disappointing crunch.

2. Artichoke Timbales: Unappetizing appearance and taste akin to day-old guacamole. Avoid.

3. Reduced Guilt Mac & Cheese: Slimy texture, lacking cheese flavor. Not worth the guilt reduction.

4. Butter Chicken with Basmati Rice: Watery rice, tough chicken pieces, and underwhelming spice.

5. Meatballs Italian Style: Sponge-like texture, far from traditional meatball flavor.

6. Mixed Mushroom & Spinach Quiche: Runny "savory custard," spongy crust, lacks flavor depth.

7. Meatless Meatballs: Mushy texture, lacks real meatball satisfaction. Passable with sauce.
