Maybe Claussen forgot where they parked the pickle truck.

Actually, Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. But alas, no pickled cucumbers.

I bought some Whole dill Vlasic. The outside box said Claussen, when I got it home to put in the fridge it was Vlasic. Not my favorite. Will report back.

No Clausens in my Safeway yesterday, they had Dietz and Watson pickles in the deli area. Today I'll try Wegman's.

A shortage of pickles? If you watch TV these days there doesn't seem to be a shortage of pickle smokers. LOL

Neighbor picked up a container of Deitz & Watson kosher dill spears with my weekly groceries. Look great but haven't tried them yet.This message has been edited. Last edited by: bald1,

Quite a few jars of Claussen's in my local Giant's deli section. Scooped up a jar of dill sandwich slices (twice the price of Mt. Olive, but...). Very tasty straight out of the jar, and washed down with a Heineken. This weekend, I'll pair them with some burgers or hotdogs.

I haven't had a pickle in a long time, not because I don't like them but I just don't seem to crave them. Today, at our local Safeway, I checked out the Claussens (mainly prompted by this thread). We have dill halves, and dill sandwich slices, but no hearty garlic. I'll ask about that next time I go, because it sounds very good. I brought home a jar of halves, which went great with a sandwich for lunch.
When in doubt, mumble

We don't really buy a lot of pickles (not pickled cucumbers at least). One jar normally lasts us quite a while. Anyway, I saw the Claussen pickles in our local Winn-Dixie refrigerated section yesterday, and this thread caused me to pick up a jar. I have to say, they really are much better than the Mt. Olive or Vlasic ones we usually get. Hopefully any shortage is short-lived.

Vlasic pickles pretty much suck, but since I bought the jar I will consume them and carefully examine the jar inside the box next time I visit Sams Club.
