Pickle Sickle, Anyone?

Since pickles are cucumbers soaked in evil, I guess this is frozen evil.

@dizastress - They're working on a kool-aid type flavor too, I believe.

Of course, this is the SAME friend who actually tried that kool-aid pickle thing that was the hot topic some months ago, and willingly ate those too...so...

I HAVE TRIED THEM! My dear friend and downstairs neighbor recently had a baby, and during her pregnancy, her partner went online and ordered her a case of these (in what would appear to be a halfhearted attempt to play into the old 'you're pregnant so will likely want to eat weird things' idea). She raved about them and wouldn't quit pushing them on me until I tried one, and lo, with her face grinning at me in wild anticipation of my first crunchy, yellowish-green frozen bite, I was instantly horrified. Yeah, it's pickly. It's ice cold. It's salty, vinegary, hard as a rock, with absolutely no hint of sweetness. I really wanted to support her love of them, but I just couldn't. They ARE as gross as they seem. Kids would probably totally love them just for the shock value. However, I must say this -the company apparently kicks butt, because they later sent her a whole second case and a t-shirt for FREE, along with a nice thank-you letter for their first purchase. You certainly don't see that... well, ever!

I'd package them with a dixie cup and market to pregnant women.

I'm pregnant, but i think i might get sick just thinking about these.

(Do they come covered in chocolate?)

Sweet god, how much sodium is in a pickle pop? Great for those watching their weight - not so great for those who have high blood pressure.

No thank you!

I'd try it ... sounds like something that might thrive on the fair/festival circuit, right next to fried Twinkies and *insert food item* on a stick.

I'm from Texas and the city ball park would sell pickle juice snowcones. Loved them as a kid, so I will give these a shot if I come across them. Also love fried pickles too, but that is another post.

These were disgusting. Way too salty.
