For those who prefer a sweet and salty flavor profile for their holiday treats, Trader Joe's has you covered with its new Peppermint Crunch Popcorn.
A tasty blend of fluffy popcorn kernels and crunchy peppermint candy, the new Peppermint Crunch Popcorn is a perfect snack option for the holiday season. Each bag starts with a savory base of crisp, lightly salted popcorn. Each batch of popcorn is then split in two and half the kernels are covered in white chocolate, while the other half are covered in dark chocolate. The mix of dark and white chocolatey coated kernels are then brought together again and studded with minty crushed candy cane bits.
Trader Joe's new Peppermint Crunch Popcorn is only available for a limited time this holiday season.
