Trader Joe's is no stranger to introducing experimental popcorn flavors and its newest creation introduces a new experiment: combining "all the tastes—tangy, salty, smoky, spicy and sweet—into a single seasoned popcorn snack. Trader Joe’s Synergistically Seasoned Popcorn features puffy kernels that are generously coated with a blend of seasoning that contains not just sea salt and cane sugar but also white vinegar powder, natural smoke flavor and cayenne pepper. Although the flavors all mingle with one another, Trader Joe's reports that its Tasting Panel found that they could easy distinguish each of the flavors within the seasoned popcorn snack.
