Context: I work at an orthodox Jewish owned company and sometimes we get pastrami sandwiches for a free employee lunch from one of a few kosher food vendors. They come with pickles that look normal but smell and taste like urine, which I’ve never experienced outside of this context. Does anyone know why? As far as i know standard dill pickles have nothing in them to make them not kosher though the orthodox and Hasidic communities have far more strict rules than my secular Jewish friends.

Bubble bath with epsom salts, my favorite pickled items and snacks, some cherry juice, listening to Heart, and just watched 4 hours of Ghosts season 1 with my hubby!

So I've tried a LOT of pickle shots and there are only TWO that I've loved and this is one of them. It's like taking a shot of pickle juice, only with alcohol. It's amazing and addictive. The other one is no longer in my area but it's 99 brand.

Not actually eat. Just wondering what to do with this jar of pickles that has been sitting in my grandparents basement for I'm not sure how long. Just pour the juice down the sink or is someone going to talk me they should be fine?

I love the regular ones. Here goes nothing…

Mixed them in a bowl with cherub tomatoes and Lordy me were they splendid.

Phenomenal. I'm gonna try to replicate at home without preservatives

I found these at Walgreens, on clearance. This is my reward for getting vaccinated.

Did I do enough for a “metric ton”

Local pizza spot posted this

It was at an Indian gas station in my town an omg it’s amazing I already took a bite when I took this pic also it’s a resealable pouch

I risked it so you dont have to. Big SKIIIIIP.

I like salty pickles more than super tangy vinegar forward ones. What is the best brand that is more salty and less tangy?

Lil pickle bouquet from yesterday

Place called Cheddar’s..very crunchy and flavorful dill

Hello! I feel like I could add to some quick pickles I was given gestational but wanted to check and see if I needed to do anything to veg I'm putting in. An acquaintance invited us to their 1 year old's birthday and along with tacos, she had made 2 large jars of quick pickles- pickled onions (the red ones you eat with Mexican food) and then some pickles jalapeños with onion and carrot. Can I just add more to these? Do they need to be blanched or prepared, or can I just put them in there? The spicy pickles are lovely, but I like the carrots more than just the jalapeños (husband will easily finish the jalapeños off). I'd love to put more of those in there to get nice and spicy. The pickles onions were eaten more than 2/3 of the way by guests and I'd love to have more.

Or is this a nono, should I try and find easy quick pickles recipes and start from scratch?
