Vlasic Kosher Dill Pickles

High histamine

These dill pickles are high in histamine because the cucumbers are pickled in vinegar and brine.

This is a jar of cucumbers cured in a brine of water, vinegar, salt, and garlic.

  • The pickling is the issue — cucumbers held in a salt-and-vinegar brine become pickles, which run high, and that is what sets the rating.

  • The vinegar adds to it — the vinegar in the brine is moderate on its own, so between the pickled cucumbers and the vinegar the whole jar sits at the high end.

Since this is a sealed pickled product, there is no way to make it lower as-is.
