Subway has announced the debut of Sidekicks, a collection of three new footlong snacks available beginning January 22 in the United States. The quick service restaurant franchise’s culinary team joined forces with Cinnabon and Auntie Anne’s to create these “craveworthy new twists” on their classic snacks.
The Cinnabon Footlong Churro, priced at $2, is served warm and topped with Makara cinnamon and sugar, while the $3 Auntie Anne’s Footlong Pretzel, served with honey mustard, reimagines the buttery and salty classic. The Footlong Cookie, loaded with chocolate chips, is back nationwide after popping up in select restaurants on National Cookie Day last December 4 and in 2022. The gooey treat costs $5.
“The introduction of Sidekicks builds on six decades of equity and expertise in all things footlong,” said Douglas Fry, president of Subway North America. “This whole new category on our menu offers customers something they can’t get anywhere else and kicks off a year of culinary innovation and delicious new menu items.”
“We’re excited to team up with Subway to bring guests the fun and flavor of two of our iconic brands, Cinnabon and Auntie Anne’s,” said Dave Mikita, president of international and retail channels at Focus Brands. “These snacks will delight guests in new, craveable ways.”
