  • First time I hear about a "relish tray" after a quick googling it looks like a regionalim term equivalent to a "vegetable tray" Also see this : https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/91497/what-is-a-relish-tray-versus-a-veggie-tray – Max Jul 28 '17 at 13:06

    The terms tend to be largely interchangeable in my experience and somewhat regional, but yes, relish tray tends to be used a bit more often when preserved and pickled items are included, while vegetable tray seems more common when the tray is all or mostly fresh veggies. I think few would consider either to ever be wrong though. – dlb Jul 28 '17 at 15:59

A relish tray emphasizes, but isn't necessarily exclusively comprised of, preserved/pickled vegetables.
