Review is a solid 7.8/10. They says it's better than the stuff they get at the Korean supermarket.
That's why I'm curious because I like kimbap, but most of the time I don't like it enough to drive all the way to Coquitlam. Being able to just throw a roll in the microwave is super interesting to me.
The reviews on the internet seem to be pretty good.

Well, being the only Trader Joe's close to the border, you know it's going to be out of stock for the next twelve months. As soon as they put them on the shelves those fucking canadians will buy them all up - by the cart.
Those dirty canucks!

My go-to kimbap place is Assi Market in Burnaby (on Kingsway and MacPherson) because they are close, freshly made on a daily basis, and of course it helps when they aren't expensive either.
can frozen kimbap really be that good? seems wrong on so many levels.
I think it should be fine? It's not like they made regular kimbap and shoved it in the freezer. This was made specifically to be frozen and reheated.
Some people were saying to just take it out and let it manually defrost and then eat it that way. I rather just microwave it and then just let it cool down a bit, lol.

Give it a shot!
Ah, Assi is my go to for Korean supplies in Burnaby. Forgot they sell kimbap since I usually go later in the evening when it's all sold out. I love the red thermal shopping bags they handed out a while back.

The Eagle has landed. Got me a few Bimbo's ................... or whatever they call them. I called them this morning at opening and they told me shipment just came in. I reserved three. When I got there after the laundromat, they were loading up the freezer with them. Two full cases. By the time I left there were only a few left.
Man, gotta be there at the right time, I guess.
Saving one for the baseball game. Giving one to each of my kids. And, my personal mechanic. They look better in real life, gulolol.

It's very good for its value. (U$5 for pack of 4) I believe they are made by the same company that makes for Momofuku and I actually like it better than Momofuku because the TJ's noddle is wider and grabs the sauce much better.
Comparing to Momofuku or A-Sha (the company from TW making all these noodles), I feel the sauce is on the soft side. I added some sriracha and also TJ's crunchy chili-onion and it's amazing.
Highly recommended for some simple and easy late night snacks.
Bought to try last time and I liked it so much that today when I was down there, I stock up a good 5 packs so I know I'd have supply for a while.

Was there this morning and saw them stacked in the endcap. Thought about it and didn't get it. One more favourable review from RS and I'm getting it next week.
In Mike and RS, I trust.

Okay, I know what I'm getting tomorrow on my weekly trip to The Ham. Those Squiggly noodles. I just made some tonight (purchased it last week). Yeah, so easy to make and pretty darn good. I had some leftover Chorizo, so sliced them up and, "walla," quick meal. Gonna get more and try out all sorts of other stuff with it.

I’ve never been to trader joes. But I got a real hankering for Swansons hungry man dinners. I haven’t had one in ages. Does TJ have a hipster version of TV dinner ?

I did it last time with some homemade chashu, boiled beansprouts and a handful of chopped green onions with sriracha. It's like a quick tsukemen.

Not sure microwave dinner. But their frozen, ready-to-go stuff are amazing. Kungpao chicken is great with rice, just remember to add some more heat to it.

Is this noodle anything like the one by A-Sha noodle? It almost looks like it's made by them but for TJ requirements.
