Aunt Sue's Kitchen

Aunt Sue's Pickles began in 1972 in Susan Bentley Snowden's home kitchen, where she started canning pickles for her family. Before long, her children's friends were asking to take jars home with them, and word quickly spread throughout the community. As more people requested her homemade pickles, a friend finally asked, "Why don't you sell them?" That simple question sparked what would become Aunt Sue's Pickles. Today, Aunt Sue's Pickles continues to be built on the same family recipes, small-batch quality and homemade flavor that made them a local favorite decades ago. Every jar reflects Susan's commitment to preserving the tradition of Southern home canning while sharing the taste of Mississippi with customers across the state. From one family kitchen to tables throughout Mississippi, Aunt Sue's Pickles is a true homegrown success story.

What makes us most proud of producing Genuine MS products?

What makes me most proud is knowing that something that started in my home kitchen has become a product people recognize and trust throughout Mississippi. My parents taught me the value of hard work, doing things the right way and never cutting corners—values that still guide everything I do today. Seeing customers share Aunt Sue's Pickles with their families, recommend them to friends and keep coming back year after year is the greatest compliment I could receive. Being part of the Genuine MS family allows me to represent the hardworking spirit of Mississippi with every jar I make.
