As consumers continue to seek out adventurous flavors and new ways to elevate everyday eating occasions, the makers of Hormel Pepperoni are answering the call with two new additions to its lineup: Hormel Pepperoni with Jalapeno and Hormel Pepperoni Dill Pickle Flavored.

With nearly half of US consumers actively seeking elevated taste experiences, according to Mintel Flavors to Watch in 2025, and with pickle- and jalapeno-inspired foods surging in popularity, these all-new pepperoni varieties reflect the flavors that are capturing consumer attention across both meal and snack-time occasions. Jalapeno continues to gain traction amid growing consumer demand for bolder, spicier flavors. Dill pickle has also captured consumer attention, with 65% expressing interest in pickle-forward offerings, according to Datassential The World of Savory Flavors 2024.

"Our fans have been asking for something new and exciting, and we're thrilled to deliver with two new flavors that we know people are craving," said Andrew McElroy, Hormel Pepperoni brand manager. "Whether you're chasing heat or looking for that tangy zing, these new pepperoni varieties bring fresh personality to the pepperoni category."

Designed for flavor seekers, Hormel Pepperoni with Jalapeno delivers a spicy kick, while Hormel Pepperoni Dill Pickle Flavored offers a tangy twist.

Hormel Jalapeno and Dill Pickle Pepperoni are available at major grocery retailers nationwide and online.
