    Try going into a restaurant and asking for sweet pickle relish to put on your scrambled eggs.

    That used to be the only way i could eat them. Stemming from childhood trauma...

    Later it got to where I could stomach them with crumpled up bacon, and from there branched off into mushrooms, artichokes, etc. and the whole modern gamut of things found in scrambled eggs...

    But there's still a soft spot in my heart for pickle-o. Scrambled eggs with relish, and buttered toast with strawberry jam, and hot chocolate. A perfect breakfast.

    scrambled eggs with relish?! whoa, that's quite a combo. but then to add all the rest, you know, the mushrooms, articokes, was there any eggs left?

    my mother finds canned corn disgusting, but it reminds me of my childhood.

    marinate some meat in garlic, ginger, soy sauce and worcester sauce, then cook in a wok until brown... throw half a jar of tomato relish over top until relish is heated....mmmmm *drool* and serve with rice, cucumber (helps to take the zing out of your mouth if its too hot)

    thats really got nothing to do with pickle has it... but still its a condiment story

    thats the right word isnt it?

    going to look for the dictonary

    Pickles...preferably the little ones that you can take tiny bites out of...taste really good with vanilla ice cream. Just take tiny bits of both at the same time, and it's amazing. It's like sticking your finger in an electric socket. I had to stop eating it in public because I'd close my eyes and shudder and people would stare.

    This is a night for confessions.

    McDonalds Fries dipped in their chocolate sundae...mmmmm

    I sometimes make this sandwich that causes pregnancy anxiety in boyfriends: toasted wheat bread, crunchy peanut butter, ham, cheddar cheese and hamburger dill slices just recklessly heaped inside. It's fabulous -- sour, tangy and super salty. I also like to eat sweet gherkins at the same time as toasted bread with peanut butter and my mom's potatoe soup. Yummers.

    What does the "o" stand for in "pickle-o"?...and how come you have an "o" at the end of so many American products?...you guys dont have an answer,do you?...and I will tell you in advance,the only guys that may post an idea back are droopy and Sem,see if im right.,the rest of you are eating doughnuts,and are far too fat to post.

    i've never hear of them. a google search shows them to be deep-fried pickle slices. clearly an invention of the american south, if not texas.

    excluding any possible relation to "piccolo", i'm going to say that they are pickles shaped like an "o".

    they only other american product i can think of with an "-o" at the end is "bac-o's". which, paradoxically, is neither o-shaped nor bacon.


By V on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 01:59 pm:

    droopy...how about the famous "jell-o"...and I still say you have zillions of products ending in "o"...I remember "brill-o" iron wool soap filled pads for ovens,I think they are still sold,also, I remember "brass-o" for cleaning brass.

    Cheerio? Rollo?


By droopy on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 02:09 pm:

    jeez, how could i forget jell-o? mormon soul food.

    you realize that this is so tantalizingly meaningless that i'm going to have to find out why "-o" gets tacked onto the end of products.

    the truth is out there.


By heather on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 02:13 pm:

    deep fried pickle slices are good. addictive even.

    you can get them in new orleans


By V on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 02:14 pm:

    droopy,Albert Einstien was a relation to you,so find the "o" factor...


By V on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 02:17 pm:

    Anti,thank you for the pic of some gay guy eating a piccolo.


By V on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 02:21 pm:

    agatha,thank you for putting the Sorabji brains from "park" into "drive"

    actually, i'm due to go rooting around in an old, unbearably hot garage for old movie stills from the 1920's.

    here's what i found on the jell-o front:

    "In 1897, Pearle Wait, a carpenter in LeRoy, was putting up a cough remedy and laxative tea in his home. He experimented with gelatine and came up with a fruit flavored dessert which his wife, May, named Jell-O. He tried to market his product but he lacked the capital and the experience. In 1899 he sold his formula to a fellow townsman."

    later it says that the company that did have the capital to market jell-o was a coffee substitute company called grain-o.

    this is only going to get worse.


By V on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 02:44 pm:

    ...what was "jell-o" like in 1899,did it make you pass blood?


By V on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 02:48 pm:

    ...and can it still do that?
