Pickles in Oz


(kris.marshall78) #1

Until last week it has been probably 20 years since I had pickles. I picked up a jar the other day and it now needs replacing due to my apparent obsession with eating them.

What is the best ones to buy in Oz? The one I bought was a local brand but I suspect there is better out there.

Do you mean the nanna kind of pickles that are diced and for spreading on sandwiches? Or small or large pickled cucumbers? Dill or sweet? I suppose you may mean dill since we are keto.

Dill, I forgot about the other types lol

I love pickles. I like to spread cream cheese on a slice of meat and then roll it up with a pickle spear.

I still love spring gully in Australia, i moderate the levels into my daily carb count.

i’ve learned to pay extra close attention to pickles list of ingredients, they like to sneak in high fructose corn syrup in for whatever reason… though this might be a problem only in the US…

If the meat was a strip of bacon, that’d be like keto sushi. (drool)

You just made me check my go-to pickles, Dustin, but I think I’m safe. Whew!

They are local to Melbourne. I am not sure how easy they are to get elsewhere
