What is Trader Joe's Popcorn in a Pickle?
While Trader Joe's Popcorn in a Pickle was first introduced back in 2015, it took us until today to realize such a thing existed. The savory snack features air-popped mushroom popcorn (don't worry, the term "mushroom" just describes the shape) flavored with dill oil, citric acid, and other natural flavors. There are no actual pickles in this dill pickle popcorn, but rather the popcorn packs a punch of pickle flavor you can't help but love.
