    sounds like they could be yummy. I love pickles and pickle flavored chips so why not pickle pops. I just might have to try and make some.

    I'm from the south and pickle pops are very common! You can also just get the small paper cups (ramekin size) and freeze the juice in there. It ends up getting slushy so it's easier to eat that way. Also you can just buy a jar of pickles (whole, chips, spears, whatever) and pour that juice out. So yummy! We used to have them at the ball park.

    Have you ever made Kool-Aid pickles? It's fun (if you like playing around in the kitchen) and they turn these amazing colors. It makes this salty-sour-sweet flavor that is one of my favorite combination of tastes. I have just done cherry and fruit punch, since the red color is so striking.

    Same caveat, yes, high in both sugar and sodium as well as artificial as all get out.
