Trader Joe’s is known for their delicious snacks. From customer favorites likePeanut Butter-Filled PretzelstoChili & Lime Flavored Rolled Corn Tortilla Chips, the grocer has dozens of tasty options to choose from when snacktime comes around. But the No. 1 snack that I always buy is Trader Joe’s Movie Theater Popcorn.
Another reason I love this snack is its affordability. A 5-ounce bag costs just $2.79, so I can re-create a movie night at home for less than in the theaters. (A quick comparison to my local AMC shows a regular popcorn is $9.29 while a large popcorn is $10.29.) The budget-friendly snack has a serving size of 2 cups, so I feel satisfied after eating it, whether I’m snacking on it while watching the latest rom-com on Netflix or in the afternoon when I need something to tide me over between meals.

Plus,popcorn is a whole grain, which is an important part of any healthy eating pattern.
The next time you’re at Trader Joe’s, consider buying a bag of the Movie Theater Popcorn. Or, if you prefer a different flavor profile, the grocer has other tasty options like Organic Popcorn with Olive Oil or Popcorn with Herbs & Spices. Whichever way you prefer to pop, you can’t go wrong with this tasty food-editor-approved snack.
