National Pickle Day comes up on November 14th and to celebrate, Vlasic introduces the Jar of Pickles candle with the help of Ryan Porter. The two join forces for the comical and functional design, creating a hyper-realistic look of a pickle jar. It is made from wax that rests inside a class bottle enclosed by a metal lid and detailed with a Vlasic logo.
It has a dark green color that resembles the look of a pickle along with the light green nodding to brine. Bubbles are also added to create a realistic visual. The scent is also claimed to be identical to real pickles once the jar is cracked option -- it is now available to shop online.
