AUSTIN, Minn. , Sept. 13,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- HORMEL® Pepperoni,
America's No. 1 pepperoni brand,* is stepping up to celebrate

20 with the opening of a one-of-a-kind online pop-up shop
full of custom items that are designed to help pepperoni pizza fans
celebrate this spicy and flavorful national holiday in style.
Beginning today and ending on National Pepperoni Pizza Day,

All pricing is a nod to National Pepperoni Pizza Day on

experience, but also show off their love for pepperoni pizza
everywhere they go."

National Pepperoni Pizza Day. Some daily featured items include: a
crossbody bag to carry a slice of pepperoni pizza, a custom set of

That Built America," Adam Richman,
to help spread the news about the all-new Pepperoni Pizza Pop-Up
Shop with other pepperoni-obsessed fans. Adam stars in a new video
