Trader Joe's Just Dropped a Delicious New Item, and Shoppers Say They 'Have to Try It'
With hosting season fast approaching (and tailgating season already here), you might find yourself taking stock of your time-honored collection of recipes and dishes, parsing down the ones that no longer hit the same as they used to. Sure, there’s nothing wrong with the peanut brittle you’ve made for the last 10 years, but why not give cornflake brittle a try? And, of course, that creamy, umami-fied caramelized onion dip you’ve whipped up for the last three Thanksgivings is always delicious, but it might be time to swap it out for something a little more exciting and unexpected. Hosting is all about the element of surprise anyway, right?
Besides, laboring over a hot stove and caramelizing mounds of onions for hours or anxiously waiting for your sugar to reach the hard crack stage is tedious enough as it is. And with all the stress of throwing together a breath-taking holiday bash, who has the time for that?

So what exactly is the delicacy in question? Gloriously creamy Chicken Uncured Bacon Ranch Dip. That’s right folks, u/AffectionateBus3178 shared word of the delectable new dip offering on the dedicated TJ’s-focused Reddit thread, and shoppers are saying they “have to try it!”
This dinner party saving grace features a tangy creamy base of sour cream, sharp cheddar cheese, buttermilk, cream cheese and mayo. The next delicious ingredients added to the party are shredded rotisserie-style white meat chicken, uncured bacon and a zippy ranch seasoning blend. After being expertly mixed, the ready-to-devour dip is then placed into 12-ounce containers retailing for just $5.49.
In terms of enjoying this mouth-watering dip, you can eat it as is with a handful of chips or heat it in the microwave for 2 to 3 minutes for a warm and gooey upgrade. You could even follow the advice of one fan who said, “I’d make a grilled cheese with it.”
On second thought, maybe we don’t need to wait to host a few guests to go grab a container. We’re on our way right now!
