A couple of weeks ago, we overinvolved parents ran the concessions at a speech tournament as a fundraiser. The person doing the buying was overcome at the carte blanche afforded her and bought two commercial-sized jars of dill pickles. We made fun of her and stripped her of her position, but she remained certain we would recoup the money.
And in an amazing display of poor culinary and gastric judgment, the students consumed the first giant jar by 8:00 in the morning. Apparently pickles are the overlooked perfect breakfast finger food. Especially when paired with a Krispy Kreme doughnut and a Coke.
Both jars were sold at a dollar a pickle, and the wayward buyer was reinstated. My own son wanted to bring the remaining juice home so he could make "pickle ice", a disgusting blend of pickle juice and ice, sort of a mutant sno-cone.
"YOU never make it for me," he whined accusingly.
