San Antonio’s Wicked Wich serving up sandwich in giant pickle instead of bread

Independently owned sandwich shop The Wicked Wich has released a new special that’s sure to please keto dieters as well as those with a puckery proclivity for pickles.

“For this week’s special we’re using a crisp, JUICY kosher dill pickle as a vessel for our freshly sliced deli meat & cheese of your choice!” the San Antonio business stated in the caption for its pickle sando’s announcement video.

Although San Antonio diners have been known to go big for intensely sour flavors — Lucas and chamoy, anyone? — Wicked Wich acknowledged that pickles can be profoundly polarizing.

“We listen and we don’t judge,” the caption continued, noting that those who can’t deal with the dill can ask for a cucumber instead.

The Wicked Wich is located at 825 Fredericksburg Road. Its hours are 11 a.m.-6 p.m., Monday through Saturday.
