Okey doke.  I fail to see the need to make homemade tartar sauce for
[presumeably] frozen fish sticks but hey, knock yourself out!  I hope
you and your mom enjoy dinner. :)

1- One less thing to keep in stock.  If you already have mayo and
pickles, you can omit adding Tartar sauce to your shopping list (then
carrying it to the car and from the car to your house).

2- BIG markup as opposed to making it.  Takes really just mao and some
type of pickles (several types work).

 Cornichons. They are like gherkins but  not sweet.
    Optionally may add extra dill to

taste and.or mustard.  Some add lemon juice to taste, I skip lemon and
use just a little pickle juice.

  Don't forget the capers.
