[Tajín](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fresh-gourmet-and-tajin) Clásico is beloved for its bold, tangy and zesty flavors, and G.H. Cretors released a new chili-lime popcorn snack featuring the iconic seasoning with a mildly spicy flavor profile.

Snackers often enjoy sprinkling seasonings on their popcorn to customize their snack experience, especially with Tajín. Recognizing the way consumers like to spice up their popcorn snacks, G.H. Cretors developed this pre-seasoned popcorn to simplify the enjoyment of a beloved food pairing and save time for snack enthusiasts, especially with back-to-school on the horizon and parents wanting to pack satisfying lunchboxes and supply fun after-school snacks.

The gourmet kettle corn popcorn snack is exclusively available at [Costco Mexico](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chile-limon-chicharrones) and [Costco USA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organic-jalapeo-lime-tortilla-chips) in the Northwest Region.
