About This Product
Elote is Mexican street corn — grilled corn on the cob coated in mayonnaise, cotija cheese, chili powder, lime juice, and cilantro. This blend captures those core flavors in a dry shaker format: sweet corn flour and cane sugar for the corn character, chipotle powder and chile pepper for smoky heat, citric acid for tangy lime-like acidity, Parmesan cheese for salty savory depth, and dried cilantro and cumin for herby earthy notes.
Zero calories per 1/4 tsp serving. No artificial additives. Kosher Pareve certified. Contains milk from the Parmesan cheese — not suitable for dairy-free or vegan diets. The 2.3 oz (65g) shaker is designed for finishing over corn, vegetables, proteins, and snacks.
Trader Joe’s does not sell products online. HIOOL GOODS is an independent reseller that sources authentic Trader Joe’s products from U.S. stores and delivers to customers across the U.S. and Canada.
