According to most major companies like Vlasic, Claussen and Mt. Olive, it comes down to effective usage of space on the label. Carolyn Goldberger, the brand manager from Vlasic, says, “We use the limited label space to clearly communicate the form and flavor inside each jar. That way consumers can easily find their favorite Vlasic. But no matter the style, it’s definitely a pickle!” Find out the reason why pregnant women crave pickles.

How Many Kinds of Pickles Are There?
There are upwards of a dozen different types of pickles for you to try and enjoy. Dill chips, bread and butter chips and kosher spears are a just a handful. Not all pickles are the same, and each person has their own preference. My favorite pickle has got to be a large jar of kosher spears. My dad made sure to have one in the house at all times.
And while cucumbers are the go-to for chips and spears we know and love, that’s not the only vegetable you can pickle. You can pickle avocados, radishes and even fruit. There’s no stopping the pickling train—it’s a vintage cooking skill that will never lose its style!
