Herr's

NOTTINGHAM, PA — The City of Brotherly Love possesses an infectious and unique spirit when it comes to its game day celebrations. This fervor extends beyond touchdowns and field goals, embracing a unique culinary tradition that brings together fans like nothing else. These iconic snacks, a reflection of the city’s identity, play a pivotal role in the Philadelphia playoff football experience.

Herr’s Foods Inc., a local staple and cherished snack maker, surveyed fans to uncover the top picks in game day munchies. The results? As quintessentially Philadelphia as you would expect. The city’s signature cheesesteak proved the champion of the tailgating scene, garnering 42% of fan’s affection. Trailing not too far behind were the legendary Philly Pretzel Tray and classic Hoagie.
The appeal of Herr’s chips extends beyond their satisfying texture. Salty, cheesy, and spicy varieties bring a greasy joy that is unparalleled in flavor and versatility. The company’s diverse offerings, from Sour Cream & Onion to Jalapeno Kettle, ensure that there’s something tasty for everyone.

The survey revealed an interesting paradox: while 79% of fans are open to exploring new snack experiences, there’s a sizable faction, 20%, who remain loyal to their tried-and-true favorites. Herr’s delivers on both fronts, earning it a well-deserved spot in the Philadelphia game day tradition.

Dips play a crucial role in enhancing these game-day snacks. Buffalo chicken dip, French Onion Dip, and Cheese dip took the top spots in the dip draft, with Salsa and Spinach Dip rounding off the top five. When paired with Herr’s assorted chip offerings, these dips transform the snacking experience into a culinary touchdown.

“In the city of Philadelphia, a playoff game day spread is more than just snacks; it’s a time-honored tradition,” says Ed Herr, Chairman and CEO of Herr’s, encapsulating the significance of these celebratory treats in Philadelphia’s game day narrative.

Philadelphia’s game day celebrations, infused with the city’s vibrant culture, are heightened by Herr’s. From their classic salted chips to a world of spicy flavors, the company offers the perfect chip or snack for every game day ritual. As a family-run company since 1946, Herr’s continues to provide snacks that resonate with the taste buds of southeastern Pennsylvania fans.

In summary, Philadelphia’s game day isn’t just about football; it’s a cultural phenomenon. The snacks that define these celebrations—whether it’s an iconic cheesesteak or a packet of classic salted chips from Herr’s—hold a special place in the hearts of the fans. Regardless of the game’s outcome, Herr’s ensures that the city’s game day tradition scores a win every time.
