Mt. Olive introduces our NEW     No Sugar Added pickle products

Now you can enjoy all the great taste of Mt. Olive brand Bread & Butter pickles, but without the carbohydrates. 

Mt. Olive Pickle Company, Inc. announces new No Sugar Added pickle products, using the no calorie sweetener SPLENDA ®.   

Mt. Olive’s new No Sugar Added Sweet Relish, No Sugar Added Sweet Gherkins, No Sugar Added Bread & Butter Chips and No Sugar Added Bread & Butter Sandwich Stuffers can be found on grocery shelves on the East Coast and Texas. Mt. Olive’s introduction of these two products makes it the first company to offer No Sugar Added pickle products in the U.S. 

“We are excited about these products, and we believe people with special dietary needs, including diabetes, will be excited about them too,” said Bobby Frye, executive vice president for sales and marketing. 

Splenda ® brand sweetener, also known as sucralose, is not a carbohydrate, and it has been shown in studies to have no effect on blood glucose control or insulin levels. In addition, SPLENDA ® is free from the unpleasant aftertaste often associated with other artificial sweeteners. SPLENDA ® is a no calorie sweetener made from sugar, so it tastes like sugar. 

“Our new No Sugar Added products are ideal for the entire family,” Frye said. “They have the same characteristic flavor, quality, and crunch of our other Mt. Olive products. We believe consumers, particularly those with limited diets, will appreciate the crisp, flavorful zing these products will add to meals and snacks.” 

Pickles generally are healthful for what they don’t have: few, if any, calories, no cholesterol, no fat and no caffeine. Even better, they add bulk to the diet and are filling. Mt. Olive’s new No Sugar Added products tell a compelling story of their own: zero calories, zero carbohydrates, and zero sugars.

Mt. Olive is the best selling brand of pickles in the Southeast, and the second best-selling brand of non-refrigerated pickles nationally with sales in over 30 states. In business since 1926, the company produces over 70 million jars of pickles, peppers and relishes annually at its manufacturing plant, which is located at the Corner of Cucumber & Vine in Mount Olive, NC.
