The Trader Joe's Trap
A classic phrase used when an individual buys a seemingly endless assortment of fruits and vegetables from Trader Joe's, but then proceeds to eat frozen dumplings for ten days in a row once home and settled.
"Hey Frank, check out all of this fresh produce I picked up at Trader Joe's today!"
"Nice, Willis, that all looks so good. What are you planning on making for dinner tonight?"
"Well I was gonna make some stuffed mushrooms, buuutttt– I'm feeling pretty sleepy now. Probably just gonna throw some frozen dumplings in the pan."
"Sounds good Willis. Just don't get caught in The Trader Joe's Trap again. See you in ten days!"
