Boom Chicka Pop: This Holiday Season I Tried Every New Flavor

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Northwestern chapter.

Holiday season is coming, and Boom Chicka Pop wants taste buds across America to know it. Boom Chicka Pop, known for their gluten-free snacks, created festivity in four new flavors.

The popular popcorn company’s recent products will spike all your holiday spirits: Dark Chocolaty Sea Salt, Frosted Sugar Cookie, Pumpkin Spice, and White Chocolate & Peppermint.

Along with their healthy spin, Boom Chicka Pop products are cheap enough for every student that wants a festive snack. Popcorn lovers, these flavors will change all opinions you hold about the classic American snack.

If you’re looking for a savory snack, treat yourself to a bag of this stuff. Mouthwatering dark chocolate mixed with crunchy popcorn is addicting, and you’ll find yourself eating the entire bag (or is that just me?).

Frosted Sugar Cookie

The sweetness will remind you of everything holiday. This popcorn doesn’t have a basic sugar cookie flavor, although it brings up memories of frosted animal crackers I’d eat as a kid. 

#SpoonTip: The sweet flavor can be strong, so eat with caution.

Pumpkin Spice

Still holding onto tasty thoughts of fall? Try this flavor. It’s tastes pretty similar to a Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte. Skip the long lines and pricey cups of coffee. Instead, just grab a handful of this popcorn for a classic fall flavor. 

White Chocolate & Peppermint

Candy-cane lovers rejoice. This winter-wonderland snack will have you singing holiday tunes in no time. The peppermint bits, along with the white chocolate, are a tasty surprise. 

#SpoonTip: Eat a bowl of this popcorn with a mug of hot chocolate for a classic Christmas taste.

When your stomach starts craving a tall glass of Eggnog and some sugar cookies, give Boom Chicka Pop’s limited-time products a chance and enjoy a festive treat.
