The Vegan Chicken-Less Seasoning Salt Reimagines Poultry Seasoning

— February 25, 2020 — Lifestyle
Trader Joe's observed that chicken-flavored seasoning salt has been especially popular in Australia over the last few years, which inspired the creation of a new vegan-friendly seasoning salt. What started as poultry seasoning in Australia quickly became a unique way to season other items like fries—and now, it's become a staple in fish and chip shops. After visiting and trying the phenomenon for themselves, Trader Joe's team decided to recreate the experience for people back home but in a way that everybody could enjoy, no matter if they choose to eat chicken or not.

Trader Joe’s Vegan Chicken-less Seasoning Salt is a blend of sea salt, onion and garlic powder, colorful turmeric and a few other spices. The savory seasoning is completely animal-free but offers a satisfying way to enhance everything from fries to roasted cauliflower.
