Now imagine that company in 2025, still owned by the same family, and still preserving the flavors of the local produce – not just in canned fruits and veggies, but in supremely satisfying sauces, too. And now imagine you're listening to a podcast… oh, wait, here's where reality and imagination intersect. In this episode of Inside Trader Joe's, we're up close and personal with the supplier of a number of Trader Joe's sauces – including Lemon Pesto, recently returned to our grocery shelves for a limited time. It's a captivating conversation that covers topics as wide-ranging as tradition and innovation, and definitely left us hungry for more. Pass the pesto, please!
