Best Frozen Foods for Lonely People

Trader Joe's

In years past, you just grabbed a bottle of Two Buck Chuck in preparation for what seemed like the inevitable evening activity - Sophie's Choice (again) with Eric … the cat. But not so, since Trader Joe's opened in Austin! Now you can have steak-and-ale pie and mushroom mochi with your wartime weepy. Of course, Eric will still be there, hanging on every agonized look Meryl Streep gives. And you'll still be there, less drunk, more full.
