Supporter Spotlight - Dr. Pickle

According to Joey, Dr Pickle’s energetic and personable representative at the Highland Park Farmers Market on Fridays, “We’re a third generation old school pickle company, traditional New York style pickles. Sometimes even people in New York itself can’t get them there the way we still make them. We use the old recipe.”

Based out of Paterson NJ, the company is featured at many street fairs and farmers markets in the tri-state area, but A Better World Café has good reason for having a soft spot for them (aside from the interesting history of pickling on their website, that is). They’re regularly generous in donating many a delicious pickled treat that we can include in the dishes for to our customers, whether it be that gorgeous green spear that we can supply with one of our sandwiches or some of their amazing olives that we can tuck on the side of a Mediterranean platter.Not only is does our resident Dr Pickle donate to our cause, he also likes what we have to offer him as well. According to Joey, “First of all, I like to eat more natural food, so the rawer it is, the more I like it. [The Better World Salad] tastes great. I love salad but I only love a good one and the salad that she makes is phenomenal, it’s the best I’ve ever had. It’s better than the ones I make at home.”

We appreciate that glowing endorsement and thank you from the bottom of our hearts (and our stomachs) for your support!
