Were the peppers already pickled on the plant somehow? Is there a type of pepper called pickled peppers? What is a peck anyway?

From what what I remember, this saying is about Mary Anning and how she sold fossils by the beach in England where she lived. So most people probably didn’t know how to pick a rock with a fossil, or open it well enough to preserve said fossil
So people say. I’m a bit sceptical about that origin story because fossils aren’t seashells and, as far as I remember, Mary Anning didn’t sell many of her fossils!
