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.

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

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.

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.

Been using valerian for leg cramps with variable success, will give the pickle juice a try,
Nothing ventured, nothing gained!

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.
