CHICAGO-In a delectable celebration of Chicago’s culinary heritage, Home Run Inn Pizza® and Garrett Popcorn Shops® have partnered to create a unique, limited-time snack: Pizza-Seasoned Garrett Popcorn. This special treat will be available exclusively at select Wrigley Field concession stands during Chicago Cubs games from July 2 to July 7.
The innovative recipe melds Home Run Inn’s signature ‘Everything But the Pizza’ Seasoning—a blend featuring sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, oregano, and parmesan cheese—with Garrett’s renowned Stadium Buttery Popcorn. This fusion results in a burst of flavors designed to delight fans and create a memorable taste experience.
“We launched our ‘Everything But the Pizza’ Seasoning last December, and it has been a favorite among pizza enthusiasts ever since,” said Gina (Perrino) Bolger, Senior Vice President and fourth-generation family member of Home Run Inn. “The seasoning is versatile, going beyond traditional pizza applications to highlight the unique flavor profile of our iconic Home Run Inn Pizza. By adding it to Garrett Popcorn, we’ve crafted a classic Chicago blend that fans will love.”
Home Run Inn, famed for its tavern-style thin crust pizza since 1947, and Garrett Popcorn, celebrating 75 years as Chicago’s original gourmet popcorn purveyor, bring together their rich histories and beloved products for this collaboration. Kris Penn, Vice President of Strategic Partnerships for Garrett Brands, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership: “Garrett has a history of collaborating with notable brands, and we are thrilled to team up with Home Run Inn. Their delicious seasoning adds a ‘grand slam’ twist to our popcorn, creating a treat that fans can enjoy during the Cubs games.”
This exclusive offering celebrates Chicago’s culinary traditions and promises to enhance the game-day experience at Wrigley Field with a flavorful homage to two of the city’s iconic food brands.
