Fresh, New Menu Option for Diners Who Want a Little Less

2011-01-14

CHICAGO, IL, January 14, 2011 (Press-News.org) Fans of Potbelly Sandwich Shop's line of Skinnys now have another toasty warm option to choose from with the addition of the Little Tuna Skinny to the menu.

Priced at $4, the Little Tuna is made fresh every day with 100 percent albacore and served on thin-cut bread. The new sandwich joins the T-K-Y turkey breast sandwich, Mushroom Melt and the Hammie on the Skinnys menu, which has 25 percent less fat than Potbelly's Original Sandwiches.

Potbelly first launched the Skinnys menu in 2009 to offer an option for customers looking for a great-tasting sandwich that was a little less filling.

"With the addition of the Little Tuna to the menu, our customers have another choice when they want a freshly made Potbelly sandwich and the portion size they prefer," said Carl Segal, Senior Vice President of Operations Support, for Potbelly Sandwich Shop. "We couldn't be more excited to add this new sandwich to the Skinnys menu."

The new sandwich is now available at Potbelly Sandwich Shop locations nationwide.
