Ok, found this when I bothered to look :) :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pickled_cu***ber

"Kosher dill
A "kosher" dill pickle is usually not kosher in the sense that it has been

prepared under rabbinical supervision, which would ensure that no
non-kosher 
ingredients were used, and that no utensil in contact with the pickles had

ever been in contact with food that was not kosher. Rather, it is a pickle

made in the traditional manner of Jewish New York City pickle makers, with

generous addition of garlic to the brine"
