Garrett Popcorn Shops and Home Run Inn Pizza teamed up to create Pizza-Seasoned Garrett Popcorn and share it with fans at Wrigley Field concession stands during Chicago Cubs games July 2nd to 7th. Pizza-Seasoned Garrett Popcorn combines Garrett Stadium Buttery Popcorn with Home Run Inn's 'Everything But the Pizza Seasoning, made with savory sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, oregano and parmesan cheese.
"We launched our 'Everything But the Pizza' Seasoning last December and it has been a big hit with pizza enthusiasts. It's a versatile seasoning blend that goes beyond the boundaries of traditional pizza seasoning, showcasing the unique flavor of our legendary Home Run Inn Pizza recipe. Adding it to Garrett Popcorn creates a classic Chicago blend," says Gina (Perrino) Bolger, Senior Vice President of Home Run Inn.
