To answer OP genuinely, I’d imagine a similar rate of waste for anything at restaurants. How much free bread that Italian restaurants throw on your table is wasted? How many tables overorder and don’t eat anywhere close to what they ordered? It’s truly sad when you collectively think about all the food that is wasted.

There aren’t any specific industry-wide statistics publicly available on what percentage of pickles or pickled tomatoes served at Jewish delis — or delis in general — get thrown out uneaten. Nobody (that I could find) has measured pickle waste at Jewish delis specifically.

Here’s what is known from broader food-service waste data and why a precise pickle percentage doesn’t exist:

📊 General Restaurant Food Waste Context

In the restaurant and food service industry overall, about 4 %–10 % of all food purchased by a restaurant ends up thrown away before or after service — this includes prep waste, unsold food, and plate leftovers — though this isn’t pickle-specific.

Separate estimates suggest that 30-40 % of food available for consumption in the U.S. is never eaten (households and food service combined).

Studies of food service plate waste (not specific to delis) indicate an average of ~17.5 % of prepared foods can be thrown in the trash in institutional settings (schools, cafeterias) — again not specific to restaurant sides like pickles.

Another report finds that 84 % of unused restaurant food waste is discarded (not donated or recycled) — but doesn’t break down by item type.

🥒 Why Pickle-Specific Data Is Missing

Pickles and other condiments are typically free or nominal side items at delis. Restaurants do not usually track item-level waste the way they track major ingredients (meats, produce, mains).

As a result, even broad food-waste surveys lump all wasted food together rather than isolating pickles or pickled tomatoes.

Anecdotes from diners or deli staff might suggest some pickles go uneaten — especially if diners don’t want that bold flavor — but there’s no reliable percentage available from industry data or academic research.

🧠 Bottom Line

There is no published figure for what percentage of pickles or pickled tomatoes served by Jewish delis get thrown out uneaten. Pickle waste at delis would be a very small subset of overall restaurant food waste (which is often in the single-digit to tens-of-percent range for total food products), but precise numbers simply aren’t tracked or reported publicly.

If you’re asking for curiosity or research, gathering such data would likely require on-site waste audits at delis themselves — counting how many pickles are served versus how many are returned uneaten or disposed of.

I’ve been to all the best kike delis in the world and have never seen or heard of this before now. Tomatoes are basically pre-pickled on the vine
