— February 10, 2024 — Lifestyle
Trader Joe's is giving fans a delicious new popcorn alternative with the debut of what the brand has dubbed the 'World's Puffiest Sour Cream & Onion Corn Puffs.'

As you might have guessed from the name, the World's Puffiest Sour Cream & Onion Corn Puffs are a light, airy, and extra fluffy snack made from corn. Each puff is dusted with a savory and tangy dusting of sour cream and onion seasoning, which makes every bite extra flavorful. As Trader Joe's describes it: "With a flavor to savor, even when the movie is over, all you’ll be talking about is the airy, crunchy delight from every bite of Trader Joe’s World’s Puffiest Sour Cream & Onion Corn Puffs."
