Recently, Trader Joe's was on the errand run. I picked up a few items, including

this feta, thanks to an earlier mention by @blue_dolphin. The last time I purchased brined feta at TJ's, I purchased another style, also with the TJ's brand on the container. It'll be nice to compare the two.

I finally got around to opening and trying the Israel feta. I much prefer the other brined feta that TJ's carries as shown below.

The somewhat milder flavor and softer texture makes the above feta my preference. Also, removing the top and opening the conainer of the Israeli feta was, for me, more difficult than it should have been. It won't find its way into my shopping cart again. Glad I tried it, though.
