KoolAid’s “bad rep” just got…very, very weird!

A Sweet So Sour: Kool-Aid Dills

KoolAid DillsThere’s nothing even remotely political, atheistic or religious about this. I just thought a little “comic relief” might be in order.

And the only comment I will make is: my sister used to put up “banana and walnut pickles”. Strange as that combo sounds, they were deliciously addictive…

On the other hand, my brother-in-law thinks all pickles are “slimy”!

  1. The Rev. Jenner J. Hull:

    As a proud pickle fundamentalist, I must say that these “sweet” pickles are an abomination unto… Well, someone. I’m not sure who. Maybe that crane that pimps for Klaussen.

  2. Naomi:

    I love a crisp pickle – either dill or sweet or those bizarre candied-gherkins that are so tiny, I feel powerful!

    I even love zucchini pickles (the only use for such a veggie!). I do not like steamed zucchini. One of my favorite Garrison Keillor/Prairie Home Companion jokes is about zucchini. “A wise Minnesotan always locks his car when the zucchini are ripe!”

    Rev Hull, I guess I’m a pickle-fundie, as well!

    Much like “terror”, a pickle is not a thing but a tactic. Many things can be pickled. Therefore pickles can be peaches or beets.

  4. Toni:

    *gagging sounds* Pickles make me ill. Any and all.

  5. Stardust:

    Looks and sounds nasty…spit spit! :razz:

    Here’s the pickles I hate: http://www.bettybowers.com/graphics/picklelicker3.gif

    (Not the green one, the one in the sunglasses)

    OMG Jess! That is so funny! I am saving that one!

    This pickle is scientific proof that Ray Comfort wants to molest you.

  9. Naomi:

    Now we know why Mike Malloy calls her “Pickles”! :roll:

    I Wiki-ed Ray Comfort. Since I found nothing negative, I’ll assume Comfort has someone on the payroll to keep his listing pristine… :razz:

    I’m with the Rev; SWEET pickles are the SPAWN of SATAN! The only TRUE PICKLE (TM) is the DILL (all-caps engaged for fundy mode)!

    However, I do like pickled ginger on my sushi, and that’s sweet – oh no! I am beginning to doubt my pickle faith!

    I like dills and sweet pickles. Guess I’m a moderate. Not sure I’d go for the Koolaid pickles though. Someone once gave me a jar of pickled watermelon rindss. They scared me.

  12. Naomi:

    I had to go to Utah to find out that even pickled okra is delicious! (Only because it was on the relish tray at my sister-in-law’s T’Day feast.)

    But my jury is still out on pickled watermelon; I think it’s leaning toward “execution”…

  13. Toni:

    We have fried okra? I didn’t know.. shoot!
