After introducing a fall-themed version of its corn tortilla chips, [Trader Joe's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/festively-shaped-pretzels) is welcoming the arrival of this year's holiday season with the Festive Tortilla Chips. These colorful tortilla chips have red, white and green colors, and designs in the shape of stockings, bells and evergreen trees. The naturally colored tortilla chips get their bright hues from ingredients like beet and spinach powders.

The traditional corn tortilla chips with a festive twist make for a simple way to elevate [seasonal snacking opportunities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jingly-jangly) and add a shot of color to the spreads on holiday entertaining tables. Perfect for pairing with guacamole or nachos, the chips are a cost-effective way to enjoy a seasonal version of a comforting snack with a crunch.
