ピクルス味のスナック紹介。
写真を見る感じ食べごたえはなさそうだけど、ピクルス大好きなので興味ある。カルディにないかな…。
take A down a notch
意味 A の自信をなくさせる.
In a statement (via Inspire Brands) Jimmy John’s Director of Culinary Innovation Dustin Hilinski said: “This year, we wanted to take it up a notch and give guests something they’ve been asking for, a dill-flavored chip, which led us to develop the new Pickle Jimmy Chips — a combination of two of our fan-favorite items — JJ’s pickles and Jimmy Chips — into one satisfyingly salty bite for National Pickle Day.”

辞書はdownで引用文はupなので、真逆の意味ですね。
mimic
意味 （特に人を笑わせるために）〈話し方· しぐさ〉をまねる, …の物まねをする (imitate)
The Pickle Jimmy Chips are classic Jimmy Chips with added ingredients that mimic the salty, sour, and dill flavors of a pickle. In total, these chips are made of potatoes, peanut oil, whey, maltodextrin, salt, sodium diacetate, vinegar powder, onion powder, citric acid, dill weed, garlic powder, spices, natural flavors, including autolyzed yeast extract, and spice extract. These also chips contain milk.

rub shoulder with A
意味 (くだけて)A〈有名人など〉と交際する, 接触する.
Jimmy John’s take on the pickle chip is a worthy addition to the pickle flavor subgenre in the world at large, as well on its chip rack, rubbing shoulders with its older brothers BBQ, Jalapeño, Thinny, Regular, and the like-minded Salt & Vinegar.
