“The Wienermobile is a beloved American icon that has been sparking smiles and driving craveability for our iconic delicious wieners for nearly 100 years,” Stephanie Vance, an associate brand manager at Oscar Mayer, said in a statement.
“This summer, it’s time to highlight another fan-favorite: our delicious 100% Beef Franks,” Vance continued. “When Oscar Mayer makes anything, we prioritize taste over everything, so no matter what kind of hot dog you enjoy this summer, if it’s Oscar Mayer, you know it will be 100% tasty, and 100% make you smile.”
Kraft Heinz says Oscar Mayer will host a “Franks for Franks” promotion this summer where Frankfurters will give coupons for free packs of Oscar Mayer 100% Beef Franks to Frankmobile customers who are “named an iteration of ‘Frank.’”
