I usually enjoy your products and have purchased the bread and butter slices before, but my spouse bought the spears and when I ate the first one I got the "artificial sweetener aftertaste" recoil. It was so strong, it overpowered the flavor of the pickle. Even though the label brags of the lack of artificial dyes and flavors, it does NOT mention the inclusion of the artificial sweetener sucralose. I will always check for this when buying your products in the future and if it is there, I will switch to a competitor's product. It tastes awful.
