A taste of Thanksgiving at Wawa is back and a Philadelphia Eagles legend is very excited.
Wawa turned to Kylie and Jason Kelce to announce the return of the hot turkey Gobbler sandwich on Sept. 23, 2024 -- that's more than two months ahead of Thanksgiving.
"Hey Jason," Kylie Kelce says in an Instagram video tagged "It's freakin' back!!!" "The Gobbler's back."
"Oh my gosh," Jason Kelce whispers to himself before yelling, "I've been waiting!"

What goes into Wawa's version of Thanksgiving on a hoagie or in a bowl?
The gobbler is basically Thanksgiving dinner in sandwich form -- a hoagie stuffed with gravy-soaked hot turkey and stuffing topped with cranberry sauce.
"Our hot turkey is so customizable, you can Wawa your way," Wawa wrote in last year's "Hot Turkey Season" announcement. "Try the Hot Turkey Gobbler Bowl with a base of mac and cheese, roasted veggies, hot turkey, and tart cranberry sauce. Or our classic gobbler hoagie!"
