The Continuing Pickle Saga

 Greetings Pickle Lovers! I have been busy seeking out new pickle adventures to report including an update on the receiving my pickle lovers package from Mt. Olive. Yes! It has arrived! Special thanks and lots of love to the Mt. Olive company for sending the sensation $1 Off coupon, Pickle Magnet and official newsletter. Oh boy!

The magnet is super groovy and kept the coupon on the fridge for a few days before we travelled to the local Acme for another installment of the blog. Many pickles await at your local chain store, and ours is no exception. In addition to using the coupon for a new jar of Sweet Gherkins, I also found some Grillo's Hot Pickles in the cooler section and also grabbed some Cento Hot Pepper Rings. Indeed!

I was delighted to hear that there is a new sweet pickle lover in the family! It seems they first tasted a Mt. Olive Sweet Gherkin on top of one of my famous Deviled Eggs. Just one bite and they were hooked. 

Also, I made it a point to seek out Claussen Hot Dill Spears at the request of a fellow pickle fan, but none were to be found. They will have to wait for a future blog entry.

Now to the matter of Grillo's Pickles because WOW they are an awesome company. Although they are relatively new to the market compared to the established pickle brands, they have a heart and hustle that should make every pickle fan seek out their products. According to their website, the pickles were sold on the streets of Boston back in 2008 at a cost of 2 spears for $1.00 well all right! I got the hot variety because I have been on a heat kick of late. Perhaps it is the chilly winter months that still lay ahead that are motivating me. 

The company has created some fun and games on their website including cartoons about their history and coloring pages to download. Check out their products page to see the awesome variety they have including Pickle Vinegar soft drinks. Plus lots of cool merchandise and even some recipes. (Stay tuned for results!)

PICKLE OH PICKLE where for art thou?

Have pickles gone away? Are they still on my plate? Do I still seek them out? Do I still think they're great? YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT! It's 2023 and there has been nary a post about pickles in these parts for far too long. Have pickle companies gone away? Of course not! There are more pickles then ever and we have even seen some pickle emporiums pop up. The popularity of the pickle continues to grow.  Americans collectively consume a whopping 20 billion pickles each year. As of 2021, the global pickles market is worth $11.1 billion. WOW! To think I spent .1 billion on pickles in 2021.

Historic Smithville Big Pickle Adventure

Image
Thanks for reading another post from another pickle blog where I celebrate a Big Pickle Adventure in Historic Smithville. Have you ever visited Smithville? What a wonderful place! Located on Rt. 9 in Smithville, NJ., the village is filled with unique retail shops and restaurants. There are three big reasons my family and I visit Smithville including The Underground Shop which is one of the last remaining rock stores in the land dedicated to punk and the weirdness that is Jersey (with one-of-a -kind Jersey themed t-shirts, mugs, patches and stickers). Another reason is the events that The Underground sponsors including the annual Art Walk, the Rockabilly Uprising and the very popular Monster Bash. A third reason is that Smithville is FILLED with Pokestops and gyms.  But this time we were on the hunt for pickles and one of the pickle posse knew exactly where to go - The House of Jerky. Located across from the historic Smithville Inn, this place is wall-to-wall jerky of every variety incl
