Guest Pickler Rick Fields of Rick's Picks

Today, students and their businesses broke up into teams to focus on the Marketing, the Accountancy, the Recipe Science or the Kitchen to create their company's product.  At 10:00am, Rick Fields of Rick's Picks came in to speak to the students about his business and what it takes to successfully launch a new product.

He focused on the new pickle, Hotties, and the problems that he had with the creation of the recipe.  He also focused on how to develop a marketing campaign and the business costs. 

It was a great talk and it looks like the students got to learn a lot from a man that started his pickle business in his kitchen in Brooklyn and it is now sold coast-to-coast in the United States.  

All of the students got to sample his new pickle and decide for themselves what they enjoyed.
