Best Pickles in the World From Chisinau, Moldova
Budapest-based blogger Dumneazu visited the central market in Chisinau, the capital of Moldova, where he had "the best pickles in the world."
Pickles stuffed with pickles, eggplants pickled whole, tomatoes, cabbage, peppers, if it grows it gets pickled. The cucumber pickles... oh my fracking Gods... Moldovans are proud of their wine and cognac, but they should be exporting the pickles. They should open pickle bars in all of Europe's cities and watch the money flow in. These weren't just good—they were A-Number One Hebrew Semitically Approved Sour Bombs.
And to think I never thought of visiting Moldova until now. Pickle fanatics, you know where you're taking your next vacation.
