TRADER Joe shoppers are in mourning after the chain has ‘confirmed’ it has discontinued as summer staple.
One foodie took to social media to share their upset after claiming the chain stopped selling their TurkeySummer Sausage.
Taking to the Facebook group TraderJoe’s Discontinued:(, they wrote: "Was informed that Trader Joe’s lost their supplier.
"Does anyone have a suitable replacement brand???
"This was my spring and summer go to for cold meals!!"
Many fellow shoppers were distraught to hear the news and took to the comments to share their dismay.
One said: "Noooooooooo!"
Another added: "Oh man!!!I loved this stuff!!"
However, one person claimed: "Not discontinued…production delays due to supply shortage for the vendor. Unknown return date."
The original poster added: "Thank you for giving me hope lol. There is just no alternative to this out there and it’s so good!"
But someone else confirmed that they had been told it was discounted too.
They wrote: "When I asked last weekend the answer that I received was it has been discontinued. Really hoping that your information is the correct one."
A few months ago, Trader Joe shoppers took to Reddit to rave about the turkey summer sausage.
One said: "I love this sausage. I like to eat it with the caramelized onion cheese."
Another added: "I LOVE them more than other summer sausages, anywhere. So tasty."
CREAM CHEESE WOES
This isn't the only product to cause heartbreak at its cancellation.
We previously shared how Trader Joe's fans were also devastated after discovering their Lactose Free Cream Cheese is no longer being sold.
Taking to Reddit, the Trader Joe's shopper said they loved the product so much that they wanted to eat it "for the rest of my life."
They shared how they used to enjoy it on gluten-free bagels.
But, when they went to pick up a new pot of the cream cheese, they couldn't find any on the shelves.
They wrote: "Went to my local TJ's today, dairy case was full, but no LFCC [ Lactose Free Cream Cheese].
"Asked around, it was just discontinued within the past week. Sad."
