Trader Jose's Pizza Al Pollo Asado

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 Pizza Al Pollo Asado fell into the category of Biggest Disappointments. Noted Russ, "Don't confuse these with our worst-rated items. It's not like you really need us to tell you that the Name Tag Classic Lager isn't any good. Instead, these are the products that failed the most to live up to our pretty reasonable expectations, with a suggestion of what to get instead." Here's their take on the product:

Trader Jose's Pizza Al Pollo Asado (5.5/10 points)

Usually, Trader Jose dishes do well for us. If it weren't for the soggy, crumbly, plain ol' nasty corn masa crust, this pollo pizza would be delicious. Doesn't matter how you make it – it's a mess. Much better option: Trader Jose's Mini Chicken Tamalitos. Read more about this product on What's Good at Trader Joe's?
