Trader Joe's Crunchy Pops

Architectural marvels like the Colosseum, the Pyramids of Giza, and Macchu Picchu have had the masses asking “how on earth did they do that?!” since time immemorial. It’s time to add Trader Joe’s Crunchy Pops to this pantheon of engineering feats, though their incredibly airy structure and pleasantly savory flavor will swiftly deem explanations inconsequential.

A lightweight blend of potato starch, pea flour, and corn flour undergoes not one, but two cooking processes. Air puffing gives the Pops their bite-sized lattice construction and unbelievably airy texture, while baking contributes satisfying crunch and subtle toasted flavor. Olive oil and salt tie everything together into a savory, light, and crunchy snack that’ll have you munching first and asking questions later.

Nosh on Crunchy Pops right out of the bag, pack a snack bag-full into lunch boxes, or heap a handful onto your plate alongside barbecue fare. For a quick cafe-style meal, serve alongside a Turkey Apple Cheddar Sandwich, a bowl of Lentil Soup with Ancient Grains, and Cut & Peeled Organic Carrots of Many Colors.
