Do people actually eat this sandwich? Do they survive?

I ... like .... pickes.

Since there was no "All of the above" option, I cannot vote.

Claussen kosher dill

Yes. From the refrigeration section. I will eat Farman's Kosher and Country Style. Prefer whole but Claussen is usually halves or spears. I don't fancy sweet pickles but I love sweet relish on my hamburgers and hot dogs.

Poutine is insanely good. I never knew about it until I toured through Canada a few years back. I was there for two months and I think I ate Poutine pretty much every day! Thank you my Canadian friends!

I always wondered what those Canadians meant when they said they liked to eat poutine. I figured it was a Quebec thing.

They sell whole pickles too.

One of my favorites...... Says "Milwaukee" but is actually made in NJ. (Go figa!)

But they are really good and do taste like the full pickles I remember from Milwaukee!!

For years (nay, for decades!) I thought these magnificent "White Spot" pickles were some kind of closely-guarded secret recipe. Then I moved to Russia, and soon afterwards discovered that the world-beating White Spot dills were in fact generic garden-variety "Ukrainian Salted Pickles". And - that actual Moscow-style "Russian" dill pickles are bizarre and outlandish things...

Then I take it you know about the bite of pickle after the shot of vodka.

My Uncle also sent me home with a nice supply of Smokefish. (Smoked Salmon; he's Finnish, and that's his culinary hobby, so to speak.)

I can't wait to bust that out for my friends, when we can put this social distancing thing behind us.

What is the best beverage for smokefish?

 

[Axtman]

I know these aren't pickles.....so sue me! But has anybody tried these peppers? They are delicious!

 

[jeff62]

Sweet pickles are heresy.

Word.

 

[alaskaleftybass]

I recently tried these-- Boar's Head. They were a bit soft but tasty. I should have tried the pickled carrots on the bottom.

 

[IamGroot]

I would kill for a home grilled cheeseburger with dill slices and ketchup right now.

Pickles are the only way to eat cucumbers, which are otherwise inedible.

 

[Iristone]

Reminds me of a mock-debate prevalent for a few years in China: sweet vs. salty rice pudding, sweet vs. salty mooncake, sweet vs. salty tofu jelly... And then I'm the one who brought sweet vs. salty milktea to the table...

 

[Bajo Clarkko]

@IamGroot, most of my friends usually gravitate towards some type Ale or (Craft) beer.

Something that would tend to complement the flavor, not overpower it.
I don't drink alcoholic beverages, so for me, iced tea, maybe a soft drink.

 

[Rabidhamster]

Never, ever under any circumstances sweet pickle.

Dill pickle is the pickle.

now I'd take pickled jalapeño over dill pickle many times. But one of those giant cold dill pickles from the fair or ice cream truck? Delicious!

I've got cucumbers planted to hopefully become pickles this year.

I like it but that word sounds like some kind of virus you'd pick up on a cruise ship or from eating undercooked meat
