The '''Gherkin Gate''' ({{j|見てわかる味|Mite Wakaru Aji|Visible Flavor}}) known as the '''Flavor Gate''' in the [[Pikmin 2 (Nintendo Switch)|Switch port]], is a treasure found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' at the [[Perplexing Pool]]. It is actually the lid for a pickle jar that was made by the real-life company {{w|Pinnacle Foods}}, as the lid for their popular Vlasic pickle brand. 

In the Switch port, the treasure is now an unbranded orange jam lid.

==Description==
On it, it reads, from top to bottom:

{{guide}}

This treasure is found on the mainland in the [[Perplexing Pool]], and is found near the two [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]]s. It is almost in the same place as the [[UV Lamp]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', and the tactic in getting it is just the same. Just [[swarm]] [[Yellow Pikmin]] against the wall (be sure to have 15 or more). Lead them up carefully through the maze, then [[throw]] them up onto the high ledge so they can retrieve it.

Other Pikmin can also reach it with the [[Throw#High ledge trick|high ledge trick]]. On top of that, flowered [[White Pikmin]] can slowly move up the ramp if ordered to do so with the [[swarm]]ing function; this will only work with a sufficiently large group.{{cite youtube|IWsAgCmiVGE|demonstrating how flowered White Pikmin can reach this treasure's ledge}}
