Trader Joe’s Reinstate Corn and Cheese Arepas, the Gluten-Free and Vegetarian Product


Trader Joe’s Reinstate Corn and Cheese Arepas, the Gluten-Free and Vegetarian Product
The Issue
As someone who cherishes simple and satisfying meals, I have deeply missed the Corn and Cheese Arepas since their discontinuation. This affordable product was a staple in my kitchen and tailored to my specific dietary needs as a gluten-free and vegetarian consumer.
The decision to discontinue this beloved product has left a gap in the market, as Corn and Cheese Arepas were one of the few gluten-free and vegetarian options that were both healthy, convenient, and delicious. It’s an easy to make meal for lazy days, essential for people like me who require particular dietary products.
According to the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness, about 1 in 133 Americans, or about 1% of the population, has celiac disease. In addition, the Vegetarian Resource Group reports that roughly 5% of the U.S. population is vegetarian. This means that there is a sizeable segment that could potentially be looking for gluten-free and vegetarian food options like Corn and Cheese Arepas.
We urge the company to recognize this outcry and reinstate Corn and Cheese Arepas, providing this essential product to those adhering to gluten-free and vegetarian diets. Please, sign this petition and help us bring back a product that is cherished for more than just its taste. It represents convenience, accessibility, and a respect for dietary diversity.
