question for DS regarding pickles

He is doing whole30, and was wondering if there are any pickles that might be OK?
TIA.

Yesterday I was shopping at Walmart (I know, I know..) and was so pleased to find Vlasic pickle planks that are low sodium. Yea! I said to myself. I was going to use them on my DH's grilled catfish po-boy this week. I was going to coat in almond and coconut flour and oven bake till crunchy. Well, yesterday afternoon I downloaded an app from Fooducate and proudly scanned my new find. They graded it a C because of artificial colors added. I'm a label reader and this escaped me- was interested in low sodium content only. So, it got me to thinking. I need to get myself to the farmers market and make my own "overnight" pickles- no dyes, my own salt content, freshness. I scanned the toddler's juice (which I do dilute)- too much sugar. I'm taking it back and will buy or juice apples. This is all stuff I have done halfway in the past but I need to get on board full time

Hmm, never thought about the dyes! Pickles are such a wonderful addition to paleo foods. But don't want to have to make them.

How about Bubbies kosher dills? Does that pass muster?

I'm actually fementing my own now, it's just cucumber, sea salt water and dill. They have been fermenting now for 5 days. Going to give them at least a couple more days. Hope they're not gross!
