What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?

The 'Snack Attack' episode featured McClure's Pickles' small-batch spicy dill pickles, built around the company's family brine recipe. McClure's Pickles was a specialty pickle producer with a listed address in Troy, Michigan, at the time of the show's taping. According to Crain's Detroit Business (2012-01-12), the company relocated production to a roughly 20,000-square-foot former American Axle plant at 8201 St. Aubin Street in Detroit, behind the Russell Industrial Center. The company's own website, mcclures.com, was live when checked on 2026-09-08, indicating the brand continues to operate, though this check did not confirm whether any McClure's operation remains at the original Troy address.
