Are pickles OK for gout?

In moderation, though a few brands rate Good. Of the 14 products here, 2 rate Good and 12 Moderate. 10 of the 12 below Good are held there by ultra-processing. Their purine is low, under 1 mg a serving, and 7 of them are held there by processing alone. The processing class comes from Open Food Facts, product by product, so two near-identical recipes can rate differently. The best-rated is La Costeña Pickled Jalapeno Nacho (A, Good).
