Pickles?

Just wondering, are pickles considered raw or not?

  • Are you going to deep fat fry them?

  • No, silly. I’m talking about the one from a jar.

  • noebones…I would guess pickles are raw. I have wondered this too. They are basically just cucumbers in vinegar and maybe a few spices or herbs thrown in.

    You can make raw pickles. I have seen a recipe on this very site! I can’t remember where… here… http://goneraw.com/recipes/152-Sweet-Pickles

    A good rule of thumb is: If it’s in a can or jar, it’s probably cooked. In order for the jar to get that vacuum seal that keeps in freshness, the ingredients must be heated.

    someone just did a post about the 10 most cancer forming foods and pickles was in the top ten!!! I am sure they can’t mean our lovely raw pickles ;)

    I made pickled cucumber by putting sliced cukes, dill and raw cider vinegar in a jar for a while. They turned out OK.
