Oak Creek Farms Pickled Okra

Image
Oak Creek Farms Pickled Okra --- Flavor: 7/10 Texture: 8/10 --- Tangy and tasty, but sometimes a little TOO tangy and I have to limit how many I eat at once. Only one in the jar was the woody firm one so the ratio was really good.

Five Guys Pickle Chips

Image
Five Guys Pickle Chips --- Flavor: 6/10 Texture: 9/10 --- a really nice pickle chip, its thick and has good seeds and meat. Normally burger pickles are bad so this was a nice change. The flavor is pretty basic but thats ok cause it has a good texture that does well on the sandwich

Grillo’s Pickles Half Sour Whole Pickles

Grillo’s Pickles Half Sour Whole Pickles --- Flavor: 5/10 Texture: 8/10 --- Salty cucumbers. Extremely salty more than boiled peanuts. Soft cucumber texture is great and has good crunch. Not sour at all, not sure why they’re called half sour.

SE Grocers Zesty Dill Spears Pickles

Image
SE Grocers Zesty Dill Spears Pickles --- Flavor: 6/10 Texture: 4/10 --- Really unique flavor, says Zesty and they do have a salad dressing sort of flavor. The seeds are good but the mean is the texture of an firm cookie which I didn't care for

Home Made Dilly Beans

Image
Home Made Friend’s Co-worker --- Flavor: 10/10 Texture: 10/10 --- These were made by my friend's employee. I was really happy with the blend of spices used, they were flavorful but not too hot. They were sour, but not too intense. The texture was good as well. Not too squishy not too hard. Honestly, I don't know if I would change anything about them. I don't normally give perfect scores, but when I try to think of what to change, I can't come up with something

Deutsche Kuche German Style Pickle

Deutsche Kuche German Style Pickle --- Flavor: 3/10 Texture: 7/10 --- I don't like these. They're sweet in a weird way. The texture is good but the flavor takes away from them too much. They’re sweet-ish but not sugary syrup? I don’t know, I don’t like them.

Jimmy Johns Full cut in half flavor: 6/10 texture: 6/10 I only ordered a pickle, that was it. I was asked if I wanted it cu in half or quarters... apparently half just means scoring it. I had to pull it apart lol. Not a bad pickle, but I would have enjoyed a better cut. The skin could be a little softer but the meat is good. 

oh snap dilly bites

oh snap dilly bites Flavor: 6/10 Texture:7/10 For a pouch they are not bad There is a sour flavor and even though they're a little shriveled they are crunchy.

over the top burger joint thickcut chips

Image
over the top burger joint thickcut chips --- Flavor: 5/10 Texture: 6/10 --- Good crisp meat, thick cut but thick skin Nice flavor, not a vinegar flavor. Maybe a fermented pickle? Like a sub not terrible thick skin but notable meat is wider compared to seed content incocosisnt from pickle to pickle. Some were softer some were more firm.

Piggly Wiggly Spears

Image
Piggly Wiggly Spears --- Flavor: 7/10 Texture: 6/10 --- I deleted the pictures of these before posting here, oops! I had these when we had nopower, the seeds were good, they were pretty tasty

Oh Snap Pickling Co Gone Dilly Fresh Whole Kosher Dill Pickle No Brine Added

Image
Oh Snap Pickling Co Gone Dilly Fresh Whole Kosher Dill Pickle No Brine Added --- Flavor: 4/10 Texture: 7/10 --- More crisp that I expected from a pouch pickle. I don't know why. Somehow has a very bland taste when you first bite them, and the back flavor after you've chewed and swallowed you can taste it on your breath. I like the seed ratio a lot

Buckees Pickled Green Beans

Image
Buckees Pickled Green Beans --- Flavor: 6/10 Texture: 5/10 --- Nothing special about the flavor, the garlic and pepper weren’t very noticeable. I wish they had pulled the stalk end of the beans off, they were really woody and fibrous on the end.

Sucker Punch Classic Kosher Dill PicklePack ChipCut

Image
Sucker Punch Classic Kosher Dill PicklePack ChipCut --- Flavor: 5/10 Texture: 7/10 --- Ok for a pouch pickle. Normally pouch pickles are kind of bad to me. I didn't taste any dill on these. They have good texture, but the flavor is basic and nothing to write about.

Breckenridge Farms Kosher Dills

Image
Breckenridge Farms Kosher Dills --- Flavor: 5/10 Texture: 6/10 --- A little more tart than I was expecting them to be. I want to say basic but they're a little different than other pickles, maybe more citric acid or something?

SE Grocers Kosher Dill Sandwich Slices Fresh Pack

Image
SE Grocers Kosher Dill Sandwich Slices Fresh Pack --- Flavor: 5/10 Texture: 5/10 --- They are ok, nothing special. A little firmer than I like, I question if they would rate lower if not cut like this, I find I am bias in my feelings for this cut of a pickle.

Kroger Dill Wholes

Image
Kroger Dill Wholes --- Flavor: 4/10 Texture: 6/10 --- These pickles are too much. Too much what? I don't know but its too much. I will eat them if they’re all the pickles I have but they are too potent and I can’t even describe why. Too salty? Too much vinegar? I don’t know, but too much. I can cut one in half and eat it from time to time. The jar is a really big plastic jar which I read mixed things on, but I wish they were tastier

Tappy’s Mild Cocktail Okra --- Flavor: 10/10 Texture: 7/10 --- The flavor of these are amazing. They're so strong and delicious and my mouth waters as I am typing this. There were a few fibrous woody ones that I didn't like so I scored the texture lower, especially since there weren’t many in this jar, making the fibrous to squishy ratio higher.
