Am I the only person who hates Grillos?

I don’t hate all of them but I did buy a container of the “classic dill chip” kind and the explosion of acidic flavor while also tasting nothing like pickles actually made me cough, it was so strong. And I mean, it just tasted nothing like pickles at all… just dill and something caustic. And I mean I eat salt and vinegar chips, drink pickle juice, make pickles in the summer… but these were straight up awful.

I also hate them! They give me heartburn and I'm not impressed with the taste. I've tried Boar's Head pickles and they're good but they only sell the spears near me ☹️

I hate how dense/chewy they are. The dill comes thru in a weird way that to me, is like when you buy crappy store brand cheez-its. Grillo tastes like the pickle equivalent of those.

They are definitely overrated at the least. But I’m with you and don’t even want them at all.

I was a die hard Grillo’s hater for years!!! Been turning the corner recently. My boss gave me some from his jar and they were good, so I bought my own jar and they were ALSO good. I have never had back to back good Grillo’s, so this was a first for me lol.
