I'm on line at a Marathon Gas Station waiting to check out and look in the refrigerated sandwich display on my right and see "Pickle Juice Ice Pops."

"Holy Yuck Batman, What's Worse Then That?"

I don't expect this thread to last long but I'll give it a shot.

[Bjeanj]

Yeah, that sounds “yuck”, but presume somebody likes it. But why?

[Topspinmo]

Some people drink pickle juice when the pickles are gone. I use to work with guy that would drink hot pepper juice. For me I could never eat clams or snails. Pickle pops would be walk in the park compared s-car-go.

[NotGolfer]

There are "some" who swear by drinking pickle juice. I love pickles BUT........ There's a lot out there about pickled anything being good for gut health.

You can make your own pickling brine and keep in the fridge. It’s quick and easy, and can control the salt

I use a couple tablespoons of sweet pickle juice in tuna salad. It perks it up and tastes good to me. I slice up one of the pickles and add it as well.

I use relish or crushed pineapple in tuna salad. I still wouldn't go for a pickle juice pop though.

Neither would I.

I do that with deviled eggs and sometimes egg salad.

[CFrance]

Yes, very tasty
I put pineapple in cole slaw too.

Do you rub it over your leg?
From the internet (that is never, ever wrong, of course):
In studies where pickle juice was effective for muscular cramps, researchers used about 1 milliliter per kilogram of body weight. For the average study participant, this was somewhere between 2 to 3 fluid ounces.
To use pickle juice for muscular cramps, measure out the pickle juice and drink it quickly. Taking a rough “shot” is also acceptable.

Pickle Pops are on the list.

I could see a use for pickle juice pops if you are a runner or do very strenuous workouts, since pickle juice is supposedly good for muscle cramps. You come home from your run or workout and are hot, so you sit on the lanai with a pickle juice pop to cool off.

Now that's funny. I relish that comeback.

[manaboutown]

From the information in some of the above posts one might consider pickle juice a prehistoric Gatorade!

Yummmm

Interestingly enough, when I was in high school about 50 years ago I found that drinking cold pickle juice quenched my thirst...like nothing else could.

Mom didn't care much for seeing the pickle jar, sans juice...but that didn't stop me. :D

Not too long ago I read an article that discussed top level athletes drinking pickle juice...instead of sports drinks.

There is something about all of the ingredients in the juice, that supposedly aids their recovery, after strenuous exertion...much more quickly. :shrug:

I don't like name dropping but one day my cousin Peter Piper, picked a peck of pickled peppers. I didn't actually see Peter pick the peppers because I was down the sea shore helping Sally sell shells.
