For example:

  • When you open a fresh jar of peanut butter do you only work through one side until it is completely empty then start on the other side?

  • Or when you get those shallow tubs of hummus does it have to make it back home undisturbed? Then one of the baggers at the grocery store shoves it sideways into the bag completely ruining the symmetry.

    How good pickles are is inversely proportional to how whole they are.

    • Whole pickles: blegh
    • Pickle wedges: no thanks
    • Pickle strips: on a sandwich, sure
    • Pickle chips: yum, on a sandwich or alone
    • Diced pickles: oh yeah, please
    • Pickle relish: hell yeah!

          I know how to do this.

          take relish (sweet or dill) and blend smooth. add pickle juice until runny. blend again. put about a 1/4 cup into an empty Soda Stream and pump it up like triple the normal amount. quickly cap and shake the hell out of it. uncap and suck the vapor out with a straw.

          -I am a stranger from the internet and would never do this myself

      I have this but in reverse (and less extreme). I can eat a good pickle relish, but it doesn’t do much for me. Then, the delish goes up as we approach the whole pickle. The whole pickle is sour and crunchy. Perfection!

      Pickled veggies, bleh. Pickled fruit, fuck yes.

      There is just something about that sweet and sour flavor that hits right. Pickled pears, apricots, and plums are my favorites.

        Are you counting pickles as fruit here? Cucumbers often get thrown in either or. (Seeds inside fruit discussion)

          Definitely not. Cucumbers don’t have enough sugars to reach the sweet/sour threshold that make pickling worth eating to my taste.
