Red Dog Saloon Serves Up Kmart Subs

On the latest episode of The Kokomo Post Mini Tries, Bree and Erin embarked on another culinary journey of the trendiest and most captivating foods, treats, and drinks. This time, the spotlight was on a sandwich that recently took the city of Kokomo by storm.

The Red Dog Saloon introduced its rendition of a Kmart sub, causing a viral sensation on the internet and capturing the attention of locals.

For those unfamiliar with the nostalgic sub, the breakdown of ingredients includes a generous stack of bologna, salami, ham, onions, lettuce, tomato, banana peppers, pickles, mustard and mayo.

Neither Bree nor Erin had ever tried a Kmart sub, leaving the pair curious as to why this sandwich has garnered so much attention.

As Bree and Erin bit into the sandwich to uncover the essence of the hype, they both said it was a good sandwich but appeared a bit puzzled about what made it particularly special to the locals. The duo, however, reached a consensus that the sandwich’s allure lies in the nostalgia it evokes.

“I wish I had the heart for it,” said Bree, recognizing that many others hold a sentimental attachment to this classic. Despite not fully grasping the local enthusiasm, both Bree and Erin gave the sandwich a fair and commendable ranking.
