Van Holten's Pickles 8 Sampler Variety Pack

I’ll be doing a review for each pickle. I LOVE Van Holten’s pickles, I usually go to my local 7/11 and grab a Tapatio flavor pickle. it’s such a good flavor, spicy and crunchy!! So, I tried the Sour Sis today... it’s OK. It’s not the best, but I have to say, the pickle has a good crunch to it. I was so excited to open my pickles, that they weren’t too cold which, In it’s defense was probably why the flavor wasn’t all that great. I do look forward to trying my pickles throughout the week.

When I received these pickles, I thought I might try a bite and save the rest for later... but I ended up eating the whole thing. I LOVE pickles. I'm also very picky about them. I had the Dill Pickle, and it was great. A little on the salty side, but good flavor and great texture. Very crunchy and firm. I also ended up drinking the juice, which was good haha I didn't measure, but these pickles are probably around 6"? They're big. I'd consider it a great value for your money. I paid $14 for 8 pickles. With the large size, quality of flavor and texture, plus the novelty of it, I would pay that again. If somebody in your life is a Pickle fanatic, or likes novelty foods I'd say these are very giftable!

The pickles are great, but I am not a fan of "Hot Mama". That one is flavored like a cinnamon candy.

Delicious if you like pickles

It has literally been decades since I had a pickle this good! There are many nice pickles in the supermarkets, but the Van Holten brand reminds me of the old fashioned pickles I used to get from huge barrels at a general store. These Pickles are crisp and have a nice snap when I take a bite. I have been telling everyone I know about this brand. So many people don't know the difference between a dill and a sour pickle; Van Holten brand nailed it. I even love all the cute names as well. This is my brand of pickles from now on.
