On Jan. 6, Starbucks launched a crave-worthy snack that’s as satisfying as it is flavorful: Khloud Sweet & Salty Kettle Corn Protein Popcorn, a non-GMO treat made with coconut and olive oil with each individual bag delivering 7 grams of protein per serving. 

Khloud has a balance of sweet and savory crunch and is made with only real ingredients you can pronounce; cane sugar, pink Himalayan salt, milk protein and 100% whole grain kernels. Perfect for those moments when you need a little something extra!
