That kind of pickle is the reason I never ate pickles before I visited Georgia (the country). I have hated them for as long as I've hated Coca-Cola, which is as long as I've been alive. I didn't realize they were sweet which I think means I only ate one.

Two things I learned in Georgia are that pickles and mayonnaise-based salads are not just disgusting supermarket deli foods, but awesome if done right. When I visited Albania a few years later I was mentally prepared to discover that pickled green tomatoes are especially awesome.

Instead of a lame pickle and a lame tomato, why can't McDonald's give you TWO pickled green tomatoes?
