Reply to comment by smltor in ELI5 Why are pickles not just called pickled cucumbers? by Shabless

>Not trying to be a dick or anything just showing that the term "cornichon" has been used in Australia at one of the largest supermarkets in the country

True, but the original claim that started this conversation was that Aussies use this name "often." I've never heard the word out loud before and hadn't even read it until today.

Probably a regional thing then. Pretty sure most of my social circle in Sydney would know the word.

Although I also feel like it only became common in maybe the late 90's.
