Trader Joes confirms it has discontinued popular produce item and fans are sharing the pur

TRADER Joe's fans are heartbroken to learn that the company has discontinued one of their favorite produce items.

At the retailer, customers can find a range of groceries from snacks to dairy and meat.

But it has some bad news for fans that enjoyed a healthier offering.

Unfortunately, a Trader Joe's employee has confirmed to The U.S. Sun that the company has discontinued the vegan ranch crunch salad.

Last week when we reported that the grocer also took a popular frozen item off the shelves, one fan customer said the discontinuation of the vegan salad was even "more upsetting."

Other fans through a Reddit thread that were wondering if the vegan ranch salad was gone after not seeing it in the store for a while shared their sorrows.

One said with a sad face: "Oh nooooo. I just bought a giant bag of dried cranberries to add to this salad, which makes it perfect."

"Noooo! This would be pure heartbreak," another said.

"I went to two stores in NYC (Soho and LES) two weeks ago and didn't see it at either store."

While the item has been discontinued, Trader Joe's still has the vegan ranch salad listed online.

It was a salad kit that included green cabbage, romaine lettuce, kale, fried onions, roasted sunflower kernels, carrots, and green onions.

Now keep in mind that this included inflammatory oils such as palm, canola, and sunflower oil.

The salad kit came in a 13-ounce bag.

OTHER ALTERNATIVES

While you can't buy the Vegan Rach kit anymore, vegan fans might enjoy another alternative at Trader Joe's.

For example, Trader Joe's sells both vegan Caesar and vegan creamy dill dressings, which sell for $3.99 each.

Both options are made with lemon juice.

The biggest difference is the Caesar dressing is made with olive oil, while the creamy dill dressing is made with canola oil.

But whichever one you choose, all you need to do is then buy lettuce and you can start building your vegan salad.

MORE DISCONTINUED ITEMS AT TRADER JOE'S

Meanwhile, Trader Joe's has been discontinuing other items.

One includes Tabbouleh Style Hummus.

It featured chunks of tomato, parsley, onion, mint, and a bit of lemon.

Another is Thai Sweet Chili Veggie Burgers.

They were made out of a blend of Asian vegetables and rice.

And Trader Joe's has discontinued the Super Greens Powder Smoothie Mix.

Additionally, The U.S. Sun has coverage on three more items that the company has discontinued.
