Wet your whistle with a Pickle Sickle
Filed under: Nutrition: Health, Weird But True, Media
"Ma, grab me a pickle there, will ya?" Pa called from his rocking chair on the front porch.
"I would," replied Ma, "But the dadgum jars got put in the ice box instead of the cupboard. These pickles are as frozen as can be."
"Aw, heck," said Pa. "Well, just bring me the whole jar, and I'll lick 'em, juice and all."
That's my TOTALLY FICTIONAL account of the discovery of the Pickle Sickle, a new product that combines the convenience of ice pops in squeezable plastic with -- you guessed it -- pickles.
Bob's Pickle Pops come in two flavor options, regular and hot, and can be eaten frozen or not. They've recently been approved by the USDA for distribution in schools. And while some might be concerned about the nutritional value, the sodium and calories can't be any worse than a sugary popsicle.
I'm a sucker for products promoted with a sense of humor. After all, who could be too serious about pickle popsicles? To see what I mean, check out their theme song, I'm in a Pickle.
You can buy your own case of Pickle Sickles -- 16 pops for $17.95 -- at their website.
