The fast food chain has an array of sides to add to your meal – from guacamole, salsa and even a corn one.
The sweet corn salsa has no tomatoes making it a firm favourite for those who dislike the vegetable.
It’s flavor is a mixture of sweet with a medium spice and lots of crunch from the corn.
But, if you don’t want to order out everytime your salsa craving hits, then Trader Joe’s has just the thing for you.

The supermarket now has its own version of the tomato-less salsa.
The Corn and Chile Tomato-Less Salsa is made with a blend of corn, red peppers, onions, coriander, lime and a touch of heat.
Whereas the Chipotle corn salsa consists of sweet corn kernels, jalapeno, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper, making the two salsas pretty much identical.
It comes in a 13.75oz jar so it’s perfect for sharing with the family as a side dish.
And the best part is that it costs just $3.49.
As with so many Trader Joe’s favorites, there is a passionate community of Redditors who just love the stuff.
One wrote: “It’s really good in all ways. We use it on shrimp or fish tacos, nacho topping, scooped with chips, mixed into avocado/guacamole, thrown into salads….”
Another said: “Chile & Corn Tomato-less Salsa is my savior. I’d like to know if anyone feels as strongly about [it] as I do.
“I put it on everything: salad, rice bowls… I’ve even used it in veggie soup. I can’t get enough. Most of my water glasses at home are empty corn salsa jars.”
“I love it I bought 2 jars in a 2 week time span.. I ate half a jar the first sitting I tried it.. sooo good,” another fan commented.
