1. Trader Joe’s organic produce
Buying organic produce from Trader Joe’s is always a good idea, as the chain prides on offering fresh products that even chefs like to buy. Plus, it’s a healthy option.
“I honestly like a lot of the organic produce from Trader Joe’s,” said award-winning chef Marcel Vigneron. “The opal apples usually have a very nice crisp texture and a delicious sour-apple flavor, which is indicative of the characteristics that I look for when choosing an apple,” he added.
