as an aside, I’ve never seen a canned pickle product.

What? Lots and lots of pickles are canned (all the ones at the store, except for some of the refrigerated ones). They just do it in glass jars instead of metal.


Edit: I don't know why I'm being downvoted for stating a fact. Shelf-stable pickles (that aren't lacto-fermented) like this...

...are, in fact, considered "canned." If you don't believe me, call up Vlasic yourself and ask them if "canning" accurately describes their manufacturing process. The number is right there on the jar in the picture: 1-800-421-3265.


Edit 2: Just to be even more clear, pickles like this:

Are not canned. The difference isn't the container (which has exactly the same kind of "lug" or "twist-off" lid as the Vlasic jar), but the fact that this one isn't pasteurized and has a warning label telling you to keep it refrigerated.

This is the kind of shit the internet was made to argue about.

Everybody gangster until the pickles come from Uranus

[-] Algaroth@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Sweet fire from Uranus? Awesome.

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 5 points 10 months ago

You're welcome. I knew somebody here would appreciate this.

[-] nrezcm@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

It appears Uranus also makes a fine dip.

It's pretty good, if you're willing to travel to Missouri

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah, I found out about this a couple of months ago when I saw a picture of those pickles posted on Facebook.

Kinda gotta admire the dedication to the joke it requires to build an entire business around Uranus puns.

If you don't believe me, call up Vlasic yourself

Loved that

He's obviously talking about metal cans instead of glass jars, not the manufacturing process called canning.
