Bick’s are like the default pickle up here in Ontario, and they’re American so obvs a lot of us aren’t buying them anymore. they still have a lot of shelf space, but I’ve started to see a lot of other brands get more. not more US brands though so I doubt I’ll ever see these
I’ve never had or heard of Bick’s actually so I couldn’t say. Looks like it was a Canadian brand that was bought by an American company so maybe we don’t have it, we probably have the same product under a different name somewhere tho, like 4 companies make everything now
Looked them up. Apparently they used to be owned by Smuckers, who kept the production in Canada, but they got sold to a company called Treehouse Foods, who moved it to Wisconsin. Treehouse apparently mostly makes store brand products.
I’ve almost certainly had them then as I live in Wisconsin and have bought store brand pickles before, thank you for the info :) I guess I would say better than Bick’s then, because I think they recycle old pickle juice for the store pickles or something, at least the ones I’ve tried haha
okay that makes sense because prior to the whole “we’re gonna invade your country” thing, I just assumed they were Canadian. but then I checked, and… nope, product of USA
better or worse than Bick’s?

I will say that I’ve never found Bick’s to be terrible. a bit bland. but they do have several different flavours.
but yeah there’s Canadian stuff I can buy instead
