I'd agree with this in general, but unfortunately the smaller co-ops/organic stores near us have two huge problems:

1. Very exclusive when it comes to membership/volunteering. Near impossible to become a member without being very close to the owners.

2. Due to not being able to become co-op members, prices are insanely high - the only non-members who can really afford to shop there are yuppies.

So in the end, for good food at better than grocery store prices, Trader Joes is the way to go for us.

Which parts of California? I know for a fact that going to Trader Joe's here in LA is more expensive than a regular super market. But the reason I go back to TJ's is because the regular food is of better quality and they have a bigger selection of healthy snack foods.

Example chicken.

If you go to the supermarket you can get one of those big bags of frozen chicken or you can get the smaller individually wrapped fresh chicken. The fresh chicken at the market is obviously better than the frozen, and sometimes the frozen isn't that much more expensive. Only problem with the supermarket is that their frozen chicken tastes like ass. It's stringy, not very tasty, and the pieces are generally pretty small. However, at TJ's their frozen chicken is bomb.com...you don't get as many pieces but it tastes a whole lot better and is probably better for you. The let down? It costs about $2 more than at the supermarket.

TJ also has a phenomenal cheese section! All kind of Spanish and French cheese and lots and LOTS of wine. TJ for president.
