Giardinera is simply pickled things from the garden. (giardino = garden). The nutritional information will vary according to what vegetables you use. I like to make my own, but there are a few brands that aren't bad. When I use a commercial product, I tend to take the nutritional information at face value. Look at the contents - some brands tend to be very "carrot heavy." Also, check the ingredients. There shouldn't be any sugar type ingredients. This is meant to be a vinegary, slightly hot, affair.

HTH.

In Chicago, they tend to put a chopped up version of giardinera on beef sandwiches, if I recall.
