Because they pass the bouncy test 
According to an article from the Hartford Courantin 1948, two men — Sidney Sparer and Moses Dexler — sold pickles that were “unfit for human consumption.” The Connecticut Food and Drug Commissioner Frederick Holcomb told reporters that you should be able to “drop it on one foot and it should bounce.” Since the pickle did not bounce, Sparer was arrested and paid a $500 fine.
While there is no specific law around this, there are several statutes and regulations that address the incident, per the Connecticut State Library.
