Boar’s Head Pickle Snacks are a low-calorie food product developed by the fine foods deli brand as the perfect option for consumers to pick up when seeking out a way to satisfy their craving for a tangy, sour snack. The product starts off with pickles that are sliced into coin-sized pieces and packaged into pouches to allow for enjoyment out of the house. The snacks come in three flavors including Kosher Dill, Bread & Butter and Horseradish Bread & Butter, which each come in 85-gram pouch-style packaging.
Director of Product Marketing Steve Alfris spoke on the Boar’s Head Pickle Snacks saying, "Pickles have always been an essential part of the Boar’s Head experience. With our Pickle Snacks, we saw an opportunity to reimagine that tradition for today’s consumer, creating something that feels both familiar and entirely new."
