Ring Bologna, Wieners Return to Johnsonville Portfolio
Johnsonville returns two products, exclusively at the Johnsonville Marketplace
Fan favorites return
The most popular product requests among Wisconsin residents to Johnsonville are: “Please bring back the original ring bologna and natural-casing wieners!” This is happening, only at the Johnsonville Marketplace, across the street from the company's headquarters in Sheboygan Falls.
Johnsonville owners Ralph and Shelly Stayer presented the comeback idea to the company’s product teams, and after digging into the company recipe portfolio, the team said it was possible. Johnsonville had discontinued the ring bologna product in 2012 and the wieners in 2010, but long-time Wisconsin fans were holding out hope that Johnsonville would return these popular items. The two items are available both in-store and online order at JohnsonvilleMarketplace.com.
