NOT promoting a particular brand... just pickles in general. have always liked pickles. bread & butter... sweet gherkins... dills (chips and spears). a touch of heat is fine with me. when pickles are gone, that brine gets used. remember best friend and I snacking a big Kosher dill, right out of the bucket/barrel.
when still working, a science elective for students was in the school greenhouses. they had these neat hydroponic towers. they had burpless/English cukes that grew to the ceiling. I took some home and made a batch of my take on bread & butter pickles... a little spicy. was totally floored that there were HS aged kids who didn't know pickles came from cukes?! a bit sad.
so... are pickles particularly popular with you?

Oh yeah, I'm a huge fan of pickles! I want to try making my own though because the stores make them too salty these days. I like them with more vinegar than salt. My favorites are dill pickles of course and hot and spicy bread and butter pickles! 😉  |

Not a fan of dill pickles. But love sweet pickles (hot or regular) and sweet pickle relish. Really like sweet pickle relish on both hamburgers and hotdogs.
I got some of those Sweet Gherkins and because of this thread I'm going to have a few right now!

Does Grillo's make both sweet and dill pickles or just dill? as my dad would have said... "yes"! grrrr! happened every time you asked more than one question at a time. Grillo's make dill and sweet... spears and chips... mild and spicy. they're in refrigerated sections... not where the rest of the pickles are. |
