USA TODAY ranks the Minnesota State Fair’s buzziest new food creations
USA TODAY’s Bianca Harris puts pickle pie and pumpkin funnel cake to the test. Watch her try some of the Minnesota State fair’s new foods.
If you are a fan of Jimmy John’s pickles, the sandwich chain has a new item that is sure to draw your interest.
The company has launched the Swicy Jimmy Pickle Bites, a sweet-and-spicy twist on its signature pickles. The catch? The pickles are served in a limited-time, 48-ounce collectible bucket.
The bucket features thick-slicked pickles soaking in a new “swicy” pickle brine unique to Jimmy John’s, the company said in a news release.
“This fall is the season of spicy books & steamy movies, and Jimmy John’s came up with the perfect sweet and spicy snack to enjoy it with,” said Suzanne DeRouchie, vice president of integrated marketing communications at Jimmy John’s, in a news release. “We want our pickle-loving guests to exchange the popcorn bucket for a giant Pickle Bucket and lean into their pickle obsession in a whole new way.”
The pickle buckets are available in-store only beginning Thursday, Oct. 1 at select Jimmy John’s locations nationwide, including restaurants in New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago and Atlanta, the company said.
