    mt olive pickles

    has anyone used these? i found them @ my local walmart. the label says no sugar added. in the ingredients, the sugar listed is sucralose(splenda). the ones i bought were sweet gherkins. i just can't eat dill pickles at all. never have liked them. when i found these sweetened with splenda, i couldn't believe i could actually eat them. i do not abuse them, and i don't allow myself to eat them everyday. they don't seem to cause any cravings so far. just thought i'd see if anyone else has tried them and what they thought of them. they are actually the only thing i've eaten that has any artificial sweetners in them, except for the two times i allowed myself an 8 oz can of diet rite soda.

    thanks,
    monie

      I love them. I'm a pickle fiend, and both the gherkins and the bread and butter pickles are great. I also use the Splenda sweetened pickle relish a lot when I make tuna salad or fauxtato salad. I don't abuse them, so I just count them as a cucumber, which is all they are.

      I had been really craving a grilled hot dog all the way, so I grilled two Hebrew National hot dogs, made up some homemade hot dog chili sauce, added some mustard, onions and Mt. Olive relish and it was to die for.

      I mostly eat whole foods, so these pickles are a small concession to processed foods. It's a real treat when I save the processed legal foods for special occasions instead of cheating with high carb junk.

        I LOVE my Mt Olive pickles & relish. I use them sparingly also & consider them such a treat. I add wax beans to the left over pickle juice~~yummy!

        Have had no issues with cravings caused by using this product.
