We were watching a quiet documentary about fermentation (don’t ask me why), and suddenly he says this, looking super serious. I laugh and ask him, “And you still eat them?” He replies, “Yeah, I like things with a real-life story.” Since then, every time I bite into a pickle, I feel like I’m committing psychological murder.

The bitterness of the pickle is you tasting their pain
That’s equally hilarious to the grandpa post I’ve seen earlier who said soups are just pretending to be a drink 🤣
Yea 🙁 we are mean to plants. Also the same deal with tea, they make it suffer in different ways to develop the taste
Suffering is the chisel to the masterpiece.
I used to have a pair of flip flops with pickles on them that said “pickles are just cucumbers soaked in evil”
Wonder what his take was on Raisins
Pickle Rick!!
A cucumber can always get a little bit pickled but once you are a pickle you can never be a cucumber again
I just don’t care for what happens to cucumbers when they are pickled. All other pickles are fine, just not cukes. Natural fermentation is much much better, but still not my first choice.
I once matched with a woman on Tinder whose profile said she just found out that pickles are just pickled cucumbers, implying she thought there was a pickle vine or some shit.
That explains Pickle Rick instead of Cucumber Rick.
