    I always buy pickles I haven't had. I have my local spots; there is a polish deli close by that I get my favorites. I love jar-cured and imported/home made ones the best. Sour is good, garlic is good.

    So I was very surprised at how good these pickles are. They are from COSCTO! My wife brought them home and I opened the jar before the groceries were in the house (just have to try a new pickle).

    Moishes - fantastic COSTCO value and a nice sour/dill taste from a big chain store. I normally don't do grocery store pickles but these are great!

    Oh, that reminds me - was informed by friend today - need a source for best Giardiniera in oil, not vinegar. Chicago style. She and her husband miss the stuff, and have ordered off 'net, but think some of the prices are silly, so price has to be reasonable, as well.

    Hot New Pickles, Horseradish Pickles, pickled Okra, and pickled Celery are out of this world from here:

    I see they have pickled Pineapple now, going to place an order - never tried that!

    I love pickles, so far my favorite have to be the one they use at Quiznos. Dunno what they are though.

    I am sure the local Pizza place probably thinks I'm nuts cause when I order a pizza I always ask for a few pickles on the side.

    BTW try Famous Dave's. They ship and they are AWESOME.

    You came in on that pickled polish sausage thread didn't ya?

    Nothing like some tasty fried pickles - with some ranch for dipping! (sorry for the poor cell phone pic!)

    No I will have to search!

    All my clothes smell of deep fry today; I did it on the back porch to save the house but man I need to throw these clothes in the laundry but I'm scared they will burst into flames sitting in a pile ;)

    Try to slice them before you fry them. Much much better.

    Hot or mild?
    My favorites are the ones with more olives, celery and carrots which tend to be milder even if labeled "hot". Greco and Marconi, both local Chicago brands I believe. I'd be happy to fetch some for you. send a PM if so.

    Best Pickles? Hengstenberg Crunchy Gerkins, from Germany. Most "green grocers" near me have them.

    Unfortunately I just can't get over the sourness of pickled foods :(

    It sounds like I am really missing out

    My fave are Ba Tampte garlic dills, even better than the ones in the barrels at our local Farmers Market-and cheaper.
