Do you like them? Dill? Sweet?

What about those gigantic ones at State Fairs and other concession stands?

Do you drink the juice?

Who opens the jars for you?

    I like Kosher Dill pickles. Pickle Juice is pretty gross even with vodka.

    The mini garlic ones are my favorite. And bread and butter pickles. Yum

    Edit edit: Also, I make my own by doing the following: I took a whole beer, wash, peel, cut, boil (a couple min) then place into the unbeatable pickle jar, after I eat the pickled beets that came in the jar. Aaand in another jar I have fresh cabbage wedges pickling in the leftover pickle brine.

    This thread is invigorating. Just what I needed.

    Pickles.... I like em, dill and sweet ones but I just do not understand how people drink the juice.

    Does this make me a hypocrite? Probably.

    I have had to use a butter knife to wack the s*** out of the lids to get them to open though. Ya know, when there was no strong, burly man around.

    I like both dill and sweet.

    I've never had one of the huge ones, sad I know.

    I do drink pickle juice (yum!!) and as a side note it is great to relieving muscle cramps. I don't have science to back that ridiculous claim up, just my own experience.

    I open my own jars.

    Little sweet ones you just pop in your mouth 😋

    Give it a good wack on the top and it eases it off 👍

    Someone recently told me that pickles are also a great way to get hydrated. I have not researched this to find out if it is true but am now wondering if it's worth a google-ing.

    I stand in the street with the jar looking pathetic until some kind person takes pity on me.

    I like those little baby dills. I bang the jar on the counter before I open it myself. No dude around most the time.

    There used to be this girl here who liked to take pictures of herself holding pickles in her fragile, lily white Dickensonian hand.

    😂😂😂 best thing I have read all day!!!

    And there was some pretty stiff competition in that mfp crushes thread!

    I haven't given much thought to the pickle but regular dill works. Not a fan of sweet.

    My dad was in kidney failure, and had really bad leg cramps because of it. The doctors actually told him to eat pickles. He was taking this stuff. Not really sure what in it helps the leg cramps but it does!

    Damn. I thought pickle must surely be a euphemism for something.

    Dill is my preference.
    Never been to a state fair or bought a pickle at a concession stand.
    Did drink the juice as a kid but don't now.
    I open my own jars.
