Popcorn used to be much simpler. You popped it. You added some butter and salt. You ate it. And it was good. But good things can always get better—so popcorn lovers started experimenting with all sorts of seasonings. They discovered that cinnamon and sugar are super yummy on popcorn. So is chili seasoning, Cheddar cheese, ranch dusting, and even wing sauce.

Trader Joe’s loves to experiment with flavors for its seasonally-available bagged popcorn. It offers varieties such as dill pickle-flavored and Thanksgiving stuffing-seasoned in ready-to-eat bags. Now, it’s bringing back a seasonal popcorn that took last year off, and fans are excited to finally have it back after two whole years without it.

Tangy, Salty, Smoky, Spicy, and Slightly Sweet Synergistically Seasoned Popcorn

Synergy is when two or more things come together to create something better than the sum of its parts. The ultimate example of that in terms of snacks may be the chocolate-peanut butter duo: Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup. TJ’s is going in a totally different direction with its Synergistically Seasoned Popcorn by throwing a whole bunch of various seasonings at popped corn to create something many fans think has a flavor greater than the sum of its parts.

Instagram’s trader_joes_treasure_hunt recently announced that after a break, the store is bringing back Synergistically Seasoned Popcorn, saying the snack is “dusted in a unique mix that’s tangy, salty, spicy, and sweet all at once.” According to the description on the front of the popcorn bag, it’s also smoky.

Among the popcorn’s ingredients, you’ll find sugar, white vinegar powder, sea salt, yeast extract cayenne pepper, garlic powder, rosemary extract, paprika extract, natural smoke flavor, and turmeric extract. That’s a lot of flavor. Somehow, they work together for many popcorn lovers.

“I eat a bag for dinner this is my literal favorite popcorn in the world,” one commenter said. Others added, “Best popcorn ever!!” and “Omg yay! My fave!”

But when will this sought-after popcorn return? Is “soon” a good enough answer? One person commented that they think it’s “sometime in May,” while another—saying they work at a Trader Joe’s in California—says the store keeps “pushing the day this year.”

If you love this popcorn, or you’ve never had it but are intrigued, our best advice is to start stalking the snack aisle and the new product shelves at your local Trader Joe’s so you don’t miss it when it drops.
