l'm not a hater. l love all pickles. The crunchier and colder the better!

Gwendolyn- long time lurker here but I'm glad to see your face (not to be a creeper)!

I used to only love dill pickles but with time the rest have found a special place in my heart, potato salad, and tuna salad.

I LOVE dill pickles, and I always have. My favorite are Claussen's mini whole dill pickles. When I was a child I used to love going out to eat at The Bagel because they set out dishes with little whole pickles in the middle. My parents' friends still talk about how I used to eat two dishes' worth.

I eat pickles as snacks all the time. MMMMMM. I'll take a pickle over a chocolate bar any day. I'll eat pickles on burgers, or even in certain sandwiches. But mostly I like to eat them all on their own. I had a student whose family used to make their own pickles and she brought me several jars each year. Those were amazing.

I don't like sweet pickles at all. Blech.

ETA: I just reread this and realized I sound like Bubba from Forrest Gump: Whole pickles, speared pickles, pickle slices, pickle halves, mini pickles, pickle sandwiches . . . Haha.

ETA2: I just ate two Claussen mini dill pickles.

ETA3: Dogs love pickles, too! At least, mine always do. They know what's what.

Haven, the forrest gump thing cracked me up!

I LOVE dill pickles! When I lived in Jersey, the deli near me had the best whole dill pickles in a barrel and I got one everytime! I miss them!

I always disliked sweet pickles but then I got a recipe for sweet rolls! You slice a baby sweet gherkin in half, then spread cream cheese on a piece of genoa salami. Then you roll the gherkin up in the cream cheese salami! Can I tell you that it is SOOO good!!! I bring them to a lot of parties as a munchie and they go FAST!!!

Dill I like Claussen because they're so crisp, but I also like making my own. Unfortunately can't get them as crisp as Claussens are. Yum!

Dill Dill Dill! Sweet pickles make me sick for some reason-- I just gag. Claussen's pickles are definitely the best--- i love them!!

Dill pickles all the way. I am not a fan of sweet pickles at all.

Cold, crisp Claussen dill pickle slices! Mmmmmm.

Dill!!!!! I don't like sweet pickles. I love dill pickles though. I just wish they had a bit less sodium... i feel a little guilty when I eat them for that reason.

*sighs dreamily* But but, those of you who are anti-sweet pickle, how do you like your tuna salad? Sweet pickle relish in a tuna melt is just the perfect finishing touch...

Dill only. I can't stand sweet pickles. My father is the exact opposite, so if there was a pickle around when I was growing up, one of us was guaranteed to be grossed out.

Dill! Don't get me near a sweet pickle. I'd want to spit it out.
