Pickles | Pad Patter 11.14

I love pickles!!! My favorite are Clausen. They have to have a crunch to them. My parents used to also make homemade pickles. There is a Bar-b-que chains here that has spicy pickles with jalapeños and red onions and they are quite good too. I have tried to pickle some red onions once and I learned the hard way that Morton Kosher salt is much saltier than regular kosher salt. I thought salt was salt but I guess not. I had to throw them away.

 

My neighbor hides a pickle ornament on the tree and whomever finds it first on Xmas Day gets to open their gifts first!

 

There is only one pickle that I like... Sweet midgets. I don't put pickles on any sandwiches. That was another thing that tasted good when I could eat again.

 

I have a Christmas Pickle, too. LOL It's so cute!

Mom and Grandma used to make pickles every year - we had cucumbers in our garden and pickle making was a big deal at our house. My favorite were "Bread and Butter" pickles - I don't know if that was a legit name or they just called them that. They canned enough for us to eat all winter.

 

I am not a huge fan of them but my mum is so they are in the house all the time. If I do have one, it’s just a bread and butter pickle type.

 

Pickles have been my most enduring dislike. Never ever ever liked them. Haven't ever wanted to try them again because they stink.

 

I can't believe the Xmas pickle it's actually a thing!

 

I'm a fan of dill pickles but I hate the smell! We have made our own pickles before and they are so good. We also pickle other things. In fact, last night we made homemade pickled polish sausage!! SOOO, good!

 

Yes, it's a "thing". LOL I can't remember who got it for me, but I've had it for a long time. I hope it didn't get lost in our big move. All of my stuff is up in the attic.

 

I like super crunchy pickles.. not soggy nasty ones.. I prefer baby dill ones but can do big fat ones if crunchy ...and sliced have to be crunchy .. no soggy on my burger I won't eat it

 

Ohh and we have an Xmas pickle too.. it's been a tradition in my family as long as I can remember ... they actually sold pickles at dollar tree a few years ago and I got one for our tree ...first person to find it gets first gift of year

 

Is it glass?
