They're generally in the same area as olives and pickles. They come in a
jar, and they're a fairly light green and are about 1-1/2 to 2 inches in
length (this is based on memory, so don't quote me on that). They're very
mild (or I wouldn't be eating them). They're excellent on the Italian beef
I posted earlier.
