Tim Walz’s Favorite Nebraska Restaurant Serves An Iconic Sandwich
BY JENNA WOS
Vice presidential hopeful Tim Walz is on the campaign trail. While traveling, he visited his favorite Nebraskan restaurant to indulge in one of the state's most iconic meals.
Runza is the name of both the restaurant and its famous, beloved sandwich. The original Runza sandwich is made with seasoned ground beef, chopped cabbage and onions.
The first Runza was opened in Lincoln, Nebraska in 1949 by a brother-and-sister duo. Today, it has locations in Midwest states such as Nebraska, Kansas, and Iowa.
In an Instagram video, the Governor of Minnesota is seen shaking hands with employees and saying, "We really came just to go to Runza, and then we did a little rally on the side."
"Nothing better than a Runza," says Walz in his Instagram video, "If you're going to go to Nebraska, if you're just going to be a good person, you stop at Runza."
