The first is the story of what happened to Vlasic pickles (company
went bankrupt after getting a close relationship with
Walmart), and the second is about one company that decided
not to sell through Walmart, and why.

The first article is about about Vlasic selling a gallon jar of pickles at
Walmart for $3. Vlasic made less profit on these and wanted to raise the
price, but Walmart said no. (They eventually switched to 1/2 gallon
jars.)

The same article also says that Vlasic's bankruptcy was not caused by
selling the gallon jars of pickles.

The article does not specifically blame Walmart for the bankruptcy.
