Pickles aren't gross, per se. It's vinegar that tastes bad.

Of course no one makes lacto-fermented pickles anymore because they take longer to make and need to be kept in the fridge.

Check out Clausen pickles.

They make everything taste like McDonald's

I used to hate pickles as a kid without having ever tried them, then I started getting pickle spears and I fucking love them from food places whenever I eat out. However, when I go to the store I can never seem to get ahold of the same kind of pickle spears everybody else seems to use.

Also, my young daughter likes pickle-flavored chips and other pickle-flavored items, but won’t touch pickles themselves for anything.

You have a couple things to take into account with pickles. So there are two ways to make pickles, essentially.

  1. Brined. A solution of water, salt, and vinegar is made and the cucumbers sit in that for a while and eventually you have pickles.

  2. Fermented. A solution of water and salt, though not as much, and you let that sit, unrefrigerated, for a couple days and then you have pickles.

In each case, different flavorings (dill, garlic, other spices) can be added to change the flavor. Also, tannic acid can be added to keep the pickles crisper.

I am personally more a fan of brined pickles, so I buy mine off the shelf. But fermented pickles are kept in refrigerated aisles. Most common fermented pickle in my area is Klausen. Some people love them, I'll eat them, but they aren't my first choice.

I think you should check them out, because I feel like most places that make their own pickles do fermented because they are less labor intensive.

I fucking hate pickles and ketchup.

Pickles I can understand. Mustard too. But ketchup?

[-] Early_To_Risa@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

You did right.

[-] scytale@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

I prefer pickle relish, but have no problem with pickles. I was surprised to see how popular pickles are in the US though.

[-] Early_To_Risa@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

Are they not elsewhere? They're anywhere that sells sandwiches or burgers.

[-] bilb@lem.monster 2 points 1 year ago

I don't prefer pickles, and oh look, my penis is huge. Debate settled.

[-] DontTreadOnBigfoot@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Oh no! I like pickles and my penis is only above average! 😱
