Pamela Anderson has unveiled her latest culinary venture, a premium pickle range, and social media users are already in a frenzy, drawing unexpected comparisons to Meghan Markle. The Baywatch star announced her new product line this week, promising fresh, tangy flavours inspired by her own kitchen favourites.

The launch instantly stirred chatter online, with many noting similarities to Markle’s earlier cooking-themed projects. The Duchess of Sussex famously co-created a charity cookbook with the Hubb Community Kitchen in 2018 and has reportedly explored food-related media ideas since. Some fans speculated, tongue in cheek, that Anderson’s move might feel like a subtle nod, or even a challenge, to Markle’s own ventures.

The playful rivalry narrative gained steam after a few viral posts suggested that Anderson’s branding, complete with rustic jars and homespun recipes, could outshine any royal-backed culinary brand. One fan quipped on X: ‘Pam’s pickles could make Meghan green with envy.’ Others joked that Markle might be “relishing” the competition.

Anderson herself appeared amused by the comparisons. In a brief statement shared online, she said she was simply excited to bring a ‘wholesome, homemade’ touch to a market often dominated by mass production. She added that the recipes were personal, inspired by her family’s traditions, and that she hoped the jars would find a place on dinner tables everywhere.

Despite the buzz, there is no indication that Markle sees Anderson’s product as competition. The Duchess has kept a low public profile regarding culinary projects in recent months, focusing instead on other philanthropic and creative work.

Still, the online reaction has ensured that Anderson’s pickles debut with more than just a crunch, they’ve launched straight into the heart of pop culture conversation, proving that in the world of celebrity brands, even a humble jar of pickles can spark a royal stir.
