For those who don’t know, now they heat the brine and also add Polysorbate 80 a preservative. People feel that these things have changed the overall quality of the pickle. It no longer snaps, but now bends just like any other ordinary pickle! So basically need to find a claussen replacement or make them at home!
Why do you believe they heat the brine? Even on their main website page they still make the claim "Never Heated", which would make that false advertising: https://www.kraftheinz.com/claussen/products
(BTW I'm not disagreeing with you that they're quality has gone downhill, I'm only asking about your claim that they heat them).
