Could The Picklewich Be The New Favorite Sandwich?

Jimmy John’s Just Dropped a Picklewich… and I Have Thoughts

If you’ve ever seen 'How I Met Your Mother', you might remember the “Olive Theory”—the idea that couples balance each other out if one person likes olives and the other doesn’t. It also works with pickles. Most people who get lunch with me always ask if I want their pickle and know I order extra pickles on the side... (I'm that girl). It came back to mind recently because last Friday was National Pickle Day, and pickles were *everywhere* on my feed.

But forget the relationship theories for a second, because the real star of the show is what I stumbled across while scrolling:
Jimmy John's releasing what they call the Picklewich...

Yes, you heard that right.
A 'Picklewich'.

So... I had to get it

I am a bread lover but instead of bread, the sandwich is held together by two giant pickles. It’s like a regular sandwich—but the pickles take the lead role, fully replacing the bun. Which if you are the person who counts calories and cares about your carb intake and you like pickles... maybe this is for you. I would overall order it again but I did miss the bread and maybe adding the pickle chips was a little overpowering.

If you're a pickle lover, this is basically your Super Bowl.
If you’re not… this might be your worst nightmare.

I said it once and I will say it again... I did order it, I did like it, I will do it again, but I will forever be a bread lover as well.

So now I want to know:
Would YOU eat the Picklewich? Or is this one giant pickle too far?
