Description
Trader Joe's Stepping It Up Spicy Snack Bar Mix is the spicier sibling of the Step Up to The Snack Bar Mix — a five-component snack mix built for heat lovers. Every component brings a different kind of spice: sweet jalapeño pretzel pieces for a tangy, pepper-forward crunch; pasilla chile and sesame chips for a smoky, toasty bite; spicy cheese corn sticks for a cheesy, jalapeño-spiked crunch; spicy chile almonds for a slow-building cayenne heat; and chile lemon corn nuggets for a bright, citrusy-spicy finish.
At 160 calories per 1/3 cup serving with 10 g of fat and 280 mg of sodium, this is a satisfying, snackable mix with real heat in every handful. The 11.5 oz canister yields about 10 servings. The resealable canister keeps the mix fresh between snacking sessions.
One note: this mix contains milk, sesame, wheat, and almond. It may also contain traces of peanut and a wide range of tree nuts due to shared equipment or facility. Not suitable for those with any of these allergies.
HIOOL GOODS sources this directly from Trader Joe's U.S. stores, packs it carefully, and ships it to your door across the U.S. and Canada.
