Beano’s Dill Pickle Sub Dressing has been announced by the Convoy Foods-owned brand as its latest market entrant that plays on the popularity of pickle-flavored foods amongst consumers in the US. The sauce features the signature briny flavor of dill pickles from the deli and boasts a balanced taste profile that's inspired by the brand's Original Submarine Dressing. The product is arriving just ahead of the Picklesburgh pickle festival in Pittsburgh and will also be in the deli section at all Giant Eagle locations to coincide with the brand's Picklefest campaign.
President of Conroy Foods Jim Conroy commented on the Beano’s Dill Pickle Sub Dressing saying, "We wanted to do something special for Beano’s 40th anniversary, and we know how much this city loves pickles. We have a history of delivering on-trend flavors to our consumers. This flavor cuts through rich deli meats and fills your whole head with pickle. It’s everything pickle lovers want on a sandwich."
