GLK Foods is the world's largest producer of sauerkraut and with its pickled food brand [Oh Snap!](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oh-snap-chillime-bites) it is launching a line of pickled fruit snacks. The spiced and unspiced apple and pineapple snacks can be found in portable two-ounce snack bags.

With these pickled apples and pineapples, the brand is aiming to bring the success it has seen with [pickled carrots, cucumbers, beans and peas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handpacked-pickled-vegetables) to the fruit category. These better-for-you snacks speak to consumers who are familiar with the numerous [benefits of fermented foods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kimchi-crisps).

With more time at home, people are supporting the resurgence of pickling by canning, fridge pickling and lacto-fermentation. While pickling has been around for many years, consumers are now finding themselves open to more than just pickling vegetables.
