The latest offering from Jimmy John’s, the Picklewich, has created a stir among many. This one-of-a-kind sandwich, which is offered between October 28 and November 14, dispenses with the bread and uses two large wedge cut dill pickle halves instead for the “bun” and is hence sure to coins some excitement amongst its followers across the country. This low carb bread free sandwich is a twist to all strides with two optional versions – Vito that comes with piled high salami, capocollo and provolone and the Turkey & Provolone which is filled packed with turkey, cheese and fresh veggies.
Those with a penchant for all things pickled will surely be delighted with this pick from Jimmy John’s which is not unlike other designs that have gone round the internet, for example that of the deli pickle sandwich from Seven Brothers Gourmet Food Market based in New York. Jimmy John’s Picklewich serves this type of sandwich as well, making sure that anyone who is a fan of pickles can ‘purchase’ them anywhere within the nation.
Jimmy John’s has not only enhanced the new item but also included old client favorites, the Pickle Jimmy Chips— another excuse to tell you to eat the new sandwich that contains zesty dill potato chips. Presently and for a very short period, an offer will maximize the customers’ use of all pickles in the restaurant, and also on National Sandwich Day 3rd November, 2017, Jimmy John’s number members indulging in the purchase of any 8 inches sandwich will obtain the Picklewich at 50% off.
The reception to the Picklewich has been, to some extent, divided. Several supporters enjoy the taste, which is actively sour, and consider it a practical low-carb food that is simply a more fun and elaborate sandwich. In contrast, some people find it hard to eat because it is very messy. The moistness of a pickle may render the sandwich somewhat slick because there is no bread to hold the contents together, and a skillful touch is often needed to manage the situation.
The Picklewich is an obligatory experience for anyone hot on impossibly daring tastes, though it may not beat the classic bread sandwiches at Jimmy John’s. The Vito Picklewich with the fancier Italian style makes may appeal fans craving more spice in their meals even more.
On the other hand, Pickle Jimmy’s Chips have kept on pleasing the customers with a pleasantly sharp dill taste that is hard to find among the chips in store—the taste that is fresh and tangy. Dill chip fans are happy that these chips return to the menu, even if only for a limited time, given many anticipate fans like Jimmy John’s will include these chips in the menu permanently.
With the Picklewich and Pickle Jimmy Chips, Jimmy John’s is proving once again that it’s willing to take risks and innovate, bringing a creative, limited-time offering that caters to modern food trends. For pickle lovers and adventurous eaters, it’s an experience worth trying, if only for the novelty and flavor.
