The Mojito sauce, to which my family has becomw addicted, has been discontinued. I just visited seven TJs in search of a last jar. No luck. Please bring it back!

We need to start requesting it at the stores...the checker told me that if enough people ask for it they might bring it back.

I went to store today to get Mojito sauce and found out it has been discontinued. I can't believe it - I use it all the time - chicken, fish , shrimp etc. It is a family favorite -best sauce in the store!!
Let's all start requesting it - I just put in a note on the Trader Joe's website.

I'm so disappointed

I have been using this sauce at least once a week for quite a while. I usually marinate a whole split chicken and then cook on the grill served with cuban black beans and rice. My family will be so disappointed!! I'm trying to recreate the sauce myself...I'll let you know if I succeed.
