The Kosher Dill was invented in 1723 by Joe Kosher and Sam Dill. It is the
single most popular pickle variety today, enjoyed throughout the free world by
man, woman and child alike. An astounding 350 billion kosher dills are eaten
each year, averaging out to almost 1/4 pickle per person per day. New
York Times food critic Mimi Sheraton says "The kosher dill really changed
my life. I used to enjoy eating McDonald's hamburgers and drinking Iron
City Lite, and then I encountered the kosher dill pickle. I realized that
there was far more to haute cuisine then I'd ever imagined. And now, just
look at me."
