And you know who likes pickles? Alton Brown :D He has a whole episode dedicated to making your own and he mentions it occasionally in other segments as well (beets, for instance).

Dills are great, I do my own hot pickled vegetables too. (carrots, celery, pepperoncinis, asparagus, mushrooms, etc) Stay away from pickled beets though, they're not any better than regular beets.

I used to know this guy in college that would buy huge jars of pickles. When he finished the pickles, he would pour the "juice" into a pint glass and drink it while watching TV.

That stuff burns my throat.

I really like the Dill Midgets (or Gherkins).
But the best pickle I've ever eaten are home-made "Brine" pickles, tiny little gherkins simply placed in salt water. MMMMMMM!

I should take a pic of my favourite brand of pickles. Sour-sweet, break when bitten. Awesome taste and texture. Only problem is, sometimes you have yellowish-whitish ones, but they taste the same.
