(KTNV) -- A mother recently got so mad inside a grocery store that she had to resist smashing every jar of pickles on a shelf.
The name of the pickles that upset her so much was "Kosher Dill Midgets," which are made by Cains.
The Rhode Island mom, Chelley Martinka, was so outraged because her 10-month-old daughter Adelaide has dwarfism and she says the product name is offensive.
So, she launched an attack on the company, starting a blog and posting a video on YouTube.
She also contacted the company directly.
Her actions paid off. The company is now changing the name.
