Tangy Is Trending

Pickled Perfection

We’re feeling pickled, and we know we’re not the only ones. Pickles are among the 10 fastest-growing taco ingredients over the last four years, with growth of 17.8% across menus.1 Their zesty flavor brings contrast to rich dishes while inspiring creativity across countless formats. Add in their pre- and pro-biotic appeal, and it’s easy to see why operators are putting more pickled on the menu. At Mission®, we’re taking advantage of this tangy trend.
