SAN ANTONIO-- As fall football season approaches, Corner Store is introducing several new menu items--BBQ pork ribs, a Sweet Jalapeno Whoopie Pie and a Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuit Breakfast Sausage Kolache under the store's signature Fresh Choices brand.
"As cooler weather and football season set in, we wanted to introduce a little warmth and spice into the menu," said Hal Adams, senior vice president and chief marketing officer for CST Brands Inc., Corner Store's parent company.
Corner Store's new BBQ pork ribs are perfect for sideline snacking and make a terrific pairing with the new Sweet Jalapeno Whoopie Pie made with fresh-baked, spicy jalapeno cornbread and a cream cheese filling.
For breakfast, the Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuit Breakfast Sausage Kolache pairs two of the chain's classic items.
The BBQ pork ribs are $4.99 for three pieces, the Sweet Jalapeno Whoopie Pie is $2.49 for a three-pack or 99 cents each, and the Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuit Breakfast Sausage Kolaches are $1.99 each.
