PopCorners recently added to its variety of air-popped corn snacks with a Spicy Queso flavor. The all-new gluten-free snack product is made with Non-GMO Project verified corn that is enhanced with red and black peppercorns. The snack boasts 120 calories per serving, offering consumers a light way to satisfy a craving for a crunchy, cheesy snack.
As much as queso is a staple of classic Tex-Mex food, the spicy melted cheese is currently extremely popular among fast food and fast-casual restaurants—as such, consumers are looking for ways to enjoy the unique flavors of queso in mess-free formats at home.
Previously, PopCorners has released flavors like the piquant Cheesy Jalapeno White Cheddar and White Cheddar, but this new variety has a distinct and globally inspired appeal.
