A restaurant decides to make pickles in the restaurant and sell them as "homemade" pickles. The pickles will not be canned; they will be soaked in a pickling solution for two days then served. Is this legal?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pickles can be made in a restaurant provided the pickles will not be canned and will not sit for a long period of time. While the term "Homemade" might seem illegal, it is not illegal to make the claim "homemade" on the menu, provided the rules concerning the pickling process are correctly followed.
