The Casey's spicy snack range is being launched by the brand thanks to a partnership with Lola's Fine Hot Sauce that will offer patrons with a piquant way to satisfy their hunger. The snacks come in three options to choose from including Casey's Zesty Jalapeño Cashews, Casey's Zesty Jalapeño Peanuts and Casey's Zesty Jalapeño Pretzels, which have all been infused with Lola's signature hot sauce flavor. The products will be rolling out at more than 2,400 locations in 16 states.
Chief Merchandising Officer Tom Brennan commented on the new Casey's spicy snack range saying, "We are excited to introduce these new, tasty snacks with Lola's unique flavor into our Casey's snack offering across our over 2,400 stores. Our guests expect convenient, delicious options at a great price when they stop at their local Casey's. By partnering with Lola's, we're able to deliver on that promise while supporting another business in our community."
