Trader Jose's Chicken In Red Mole

Nathan Rodgers, his wife Sonia, and their friend Russ Shelly and his wife Sandy set out almost two years ago to review the cult grocer's some 4,500 products for their site What's Good at Trader Joe's?, and so far they've covered more than 300 products. While the reviewers are fans of Trader Joe's, they take reviewing seriously — their first review was even negative. Here's their process:

• They rate products on a scale of one to 10, 10 being the best.

• For any post, two people rate the product.

• Reviewers give their overall impression and up to five points each.

For Russ, Sonia, Shelly, and Sandy,Trader Jose's Chicken in Red Mole fell into the category of Easty Dinners. Noted Russ, "We're all not Martha Stewart, and sometimes even she needs the night off. All these are easy enough for a college kid, but tasty enough for the whole family...if you decide to share, that is." Here's their take on the product:

Trader Jose's Chicken in Red Mole (8/10 points)

Real mole's pretty darn involved. This full, spicy, smoky dinner-in-a-bag is easy enough that you can assemble IKEA furniture while making it. How do we know? That's exactly what we did. We're international like that. Read more about this product on What's Good at Trader Joe's?
