Reply to comment by Fearless-Golf-8496 in TIL different kinds of tea (black, green, white, oolong) come from the same plant. The only difference is in how the leaves are processed. by wombat-slayer

There’s a whole bunch of different varieties, gherkin is one. I’m actually pretty sure dill pickles are gherkins pickled with dill specifically, but I’m already the nerd correcting people about cucumbers vs pickles and I don’t need to get weirder right now.

We only get the gherkins in the UK, but that might be because we tend to go more for chutneys than pickled vegetables. We have pickled gherkins, pickled beetroot and pickled onions, and that's about it.
