COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Shrimp for All! White Castle's Shrimp Nibblers have sailed into port once again. The crispy Nibblers are perfect for shrimp lovers of all ages, and will satisfy any Craver's seafood appetite, no fancy cloth napkin required. These bite-sized treats will be available at most White Castle restaurants for a limited time beginning February 7.

"Our Shrimp Nibblers were extremely popular last year, so we're excited to bring them back and introduce Sriracha Shrimp Nibblers – a new hot and tasty flavor that's sure to be a hit," said Jamie Richardson, vice president of White Castle. "But don't wait too long to check them out, Shrimp Nibblers will only be in our restaurants for a limited time."

The Shrimp Nibblers are made with mouthwatering butterfly shrimp and cooked to perfection. When customers order the Classic Shrimp Nibblers and Sriracha Nibblers, they have a choice of four dipping sauces, including cocktail, ranch, tartar or zesty zing.

White Castle was one of the first to introduce Sriracha to its menu in 2014 when it debuted its Sriracha Chicken Sandwich. The limited-time only Sriracha Shrimp Nibblers join the everyday seafood lineup that includes Fish Sliders, Fish Nibblers^® and Clam Strips, available in some regions for a limited time only. White Castle's Fish Sliders and Fish Nibblers are made with Alaska Pollock.

"As a family-owned business, our focus is on listening to our customers and providing them with what they crave," Richardson said. "During the Lenten season, many of our cravers seek a dining alternative and they love the quality, affordability and convenience of Shrimp Nibblers when visiting the Castle."

Cravers can purchase Shrimp Nibblers in Castle and online or through the mobile app, just in time for the Big Game.
