Default Trader Joe's...say it isn't so!!

I just got off the phone with the manager at Trader Joe's. He told me they are no longer going to carry O' SoLo rollz! When I asked him why, he responded "It is a substandard product; it keeps coming to us moldy. We will not carry it until they fix this problem." I've been buying these rolls there for months and never had a problem. In fact, the expiration date when I bought two boxes was a month away, and they lasted almost to that date (before I ate them all!)

Has anyone else encountered this problem with Trader Joe's or any other distributor? Does anyone know where else these are sold in Michigan other than the internet?

Ziggy, we use o'solo rollz daily. Out of the 20-30 boxes I think I have purchased, three rollz were moldy inside their wrapper (three different boxes). That doesn't stop me from continuing to buy them. I now get them over the internet for less than it cost me to buy them in the store.

Hi Ziggy, I order ours now from www.thebetterhealthstore.com for $2.34/box. Orders over $50 have free shipping. I order Low Carb Success hot cereal and granola from them too so it is rather easy to come up with the $50 order. The only thing they don't have that I need is DaVinci syrup. I was very pleased with their prompt service. I got an email immediately then again when the order was shipped the next day. I think I got the order within 4 days of ordering. I hope this helps.
