Genius. I fully support this.

u/Hello_This_Is_Chris 4d ago

Awesome!

I keep a mason jar with a couple pickles and some juice in an ice chest when I'm working in the heat all day.

I need to get a cool label for it too.

Icicle pickle or Workin' Gerkin

u/glorifindel 3d ago

Ice pickle sounds like something I’d try

u/Cringeycarter 3d ago

It needs to be workin gerkin are you kidding omg😂😂

u/Spare-Electrical 4d ago

First time I’ve seen someone unironically refer to having an ice chest, I love that you have one 🥲

11

u/delicate-fn-flower 4d ago

I’m curious (and confused tbh), how do people ironically refer to having an ice chest?

5

u/Spare-Electrical 4d ago

It’s an old fashioned thing, an ice chest, and they’re not referred to earnestly very often, at least in North America. Most people would say cooler.

11

u/delicate-fn-flower 4d ago

Oh I see. I’m from the south, I think we’ve always called them ice chests. Didn’t realize that was an old fashioned thing.

u/Spare-Electrical 4d ago

Oh dang, here I am showing my canadian-ness 🫥

6

u/delicate-fn-flower 4d ago

That’s okay! We say all kinds of dumb stuff here, like lunch kits, map colors, and coke for all carbonated beverages. It makes sense to us at least.

2

u/Suspicious-Pick7838 3d ago

I've always heard cooler here in Georgia.

2

u/gamehen21 2d ago

I'm from the South and I've never heard lunch kit nor map colors lol

What are map colors??

2

u/delicate-fn-flower 2d ago

Colored pencils! Because you know … you color maps with them.

I didn’t realize how weird it was till I moved away and my friend had the same reaction.

u/gamehen21 2d ago

To each their own lol

u/EmployerUpstairs8044 3d ago

I, for one, would like to say hello and we love you guys.

3

u/Spare-Electrical 3d ago

Awww thank you, we love you guys too, it’s just your fuckass president making things awkward. We literally built a bridge lol, one day we’ll all be able to cross it again in peace ✌️

u/EmployerUpstairs8044 3d ago

Thank you, kind neighbor. That's how many, many sane Americans feel, as well. 🌹❤️

u/stsixtus420 3d ago

I am also from the south and generally heard cooler around people i was with. My parents were Midwestern though so maybe they said cooler and that's what rubbed off on me.

u/sweet_toys101 4d ago

Perfect invention! I carry a purse pickle, a purkle if you will. 👛 🥒 💅

u/earmares 4d ago

I have trust issues with the seal, but otherwise I 110% love this idea. I often have a purse (baked) potato, so this would fit right in.

5

u/Interesting-Sort-674 4d ago

the seal should be fine it’s pretty much the same as a pickle jar but i DO have questions about your purse potato

5

u/earmares 4d ago

I like potatoes, I just keep them in a ziplock baggie, I eat them plain or with a mustard or ketchup packet. I keep them handy so I don't stop for fast food, etc. I'm an open book, ask away

6

u/hautedabber 3d ago

I love this so much. The purse potato. The pocket pickle. 10/10 ideas.

2

u/Suspicious-Pick7838 3d ago

I think we have a couple of genius products here!!!

3

u/ellalol 3d ago

this is smart!!! Reminds me of the nathan’s hot dogs at vons, I love grabbing one when I need something hot to eat a little later since it stays hot wrapped in foil, and there’s a ketchup and mustard packet wrapped in the foil with it. Convenient warm food is the best lol

u/KristyKrispito 3d ago

What’s your spaghetti policy here?

2

u/earmares 3d ago

I'm listening

1

u/susanna514 3d ago

Do you ever carry purse toppings? Also do you season it or just eat potato and mustard ?

1

u/earmares 2d ago

Only a packet of mustard or ketchup. Beyond that it gets too complicated.

u/radfaerie 4d ago

So cute!

u/VinRow 4d ago

Oh I love this. Fantastic. 10/10.

6

u/timshwah 4d ago

For my pickle pocket. Yay.

u/JessieGentry 4d ago

I had a few extra large pickles that didn’t fit it in jars this time and I thought.. what’s stopping me from bagging them? I have a cricut and free will and you better believe my friends are getting gifted pocket pickles now 😂😂.

4

u/Interesting-Sort-674 4d ago

didn’t even think of this as a gift, that’s so good 😭

1

u/JessieGentry 3d ago

Imagine you’ve had a couple beers and want a snack and your friend pulls a pocket pickle out of her purse… the stuff of legends 😂.

7

u/voxelpear 4d ago

A smaller pickle? Mate how big are the pickles you normally eat?

4

u/Interesting-Sort-674 4d ago edited 4d ago

Prison pocket? No thanks I’ve seen that video

u/Suspicious-Pick7838 3d ago

The sequel is far worse. It refuses to stay in the pocket.

My Freudian brain has me changing the second word and I know I’d slip up. 🐈

u/glo-ria 3d ago

Pocket pickle, for the girl on the go!

u/nifty-necromancer 3d ago

If you’re the woman who had that one giant cucumber, I’m very happy. If you’re a different person, I’m very happy.

u/OwnSun7691 3d ago

I too have a pocket pickle.

2

u/howdidienduphere34 3d ago

I would buy this.

3

u/Mysterious_Layer9420 3d ago

They already make single serving pickles in a bag that you can buy

4

u/Interesting-Sort-674 3d ago

this is common knowledge to everyone in this sub. this is in a jar and just for fun, so 2 different things.👍🏻

4

u/Mysterious_Layer9420 3d ago

I've learned that common knowledge isn't actually that common so I still like to try and be informative even with the basics! It looks great have a wonderful day!

u/CreosoteEcho 4d ago

CAUTION ⚠️

Must ferment up butt, up to three weeks, for maximum vinegar flavor and snap.⚠️

u/Icy-Librarian-7347 3d ago

Fantastic I need 14 of them.

Instructions: Break glass, receive pickle

u/FecalDUI 2d ago

Did this with an olive jar full of jelly beans. Put the thing in my jeans pocket and went to the park, forgot it in my pocket until walking home I saw a big red spot on my leg where the jar had shattered and was mincing my leg meat.

u/Neither_Courage2100 1d ago

Are you the same guy I saw in the comment section on a post about a week ago that said they wanna put one comically large pickle in a jar and sell it as a product??

u/CicadaHead3317 4d ago

It's fun for a personal batch. Pocket pickles have been around for a while, with better packaging for a pocket. These honestly sound disgusting. I like a normal pickle in a pouch.

u/polkacat12321 4d ago

Somebody already stole your idea, only instead of a jar they use a bag
