Because we’re primarily a food store, you might forget that we’re also a great place to shop for plants and flowers, too. Truth is, our flowers and plants section is one of the most consistently exciting places in the store. We’re constantly updating, upgrading, and upsizing our selection of products – even if the idea is the same from one season to the next, the inherent seasonality of flowers and plants means that you’ll see a revolving selection. And, of course, our prices are almost always well below what you’d pay elsewhere for similar flowers and plants.

If you spend any amount of time in the kitchen, chances are you're spending some of that time applying oil to a cooking surface, be it a baking dish, cookie sheet, or skillet. That's where tools like our Organic Canola Oil Spray come in handy: they're an easy way to apply a quick, even layer of oil without having to do much fussing or finagling with measuring spoons, spatulas, or paper towels. Add to that the fact that it uses an air pressure-based, non-aerosol Bag-On-Valve spraying system rather than propellants, and you've got a seriously can-do can of Organic Canola Oil Spray on your hands.

Equal parts hydrating and refreshing, Trader Joe's Rose Water Facial Toner is formulated with real Damask rose water and Damask rose oil (to bedew and moisturize), witch hazel (to balance and tone), and a bit of&nbsp;Quillaja saponaria&nbsp;(soapbark) extract (to soften and condition). Best of all, it smells exactly like a fresh, blooming rose—so you'll actually "smell the roses" while you're taking a moment to stop, relax, and... well, smell the roses. Mist Rose Water Facial Toner onto your beautiful face after cleansing, or as needed throughout the day for a quick refresher. Stash a bottle in your purse, gym bag, or desk drawer for on-the-go toning and/or at-work hydration. The formula is so mild and gentle that there is really no such thing as "too much Toner" here—so feel free to spritz this soothingly-scented spray anytime you need a moment of calm. And here’s a hot tip: for an extra-cool toning experience, store a bottle of Trader Joe’s Rose Water Facial toner in your fridge… and thank us later.

Some say that Jorts are "back".... Well we say these jean shorts for men were never out of style in the first place! After much discussion at Born Primitive (and maybe a few cocktails), we decided to bring these bad boys back into the spotlight, with a few key modifications. With a polyester/spandex blend to the denim, these men's jorts offer that same denim feel but with ridiculous flexibility for extreme comfort and functionality. They also come pre-frayed, giving you that vintage Jort look that your Dad probably rocked working on his Firebird in the garage while he was rocking Van Halen and drinking a Bud Heavy. The interesting thing is these jorts for guys are actually great for working out, especially on a heavy squat day when you need a little extra help coming out of the hole! So it doesn't matter if your adventure takes you to the gym or the tailgating fields, you are going to be dressed for success when you snag your first (and second/third/fourth) pair of Stretchy American WOD Jorts!&nbsp;

In this Born Primitive Jorts Review, professional fitness trainer Morgan Findlay describes the optimal comfort and stretch of these jean shorts.
