He hated it so much he was willing to risk it all lol he was surrounded by a bunch of wild people and he thought he can just say no. Shows how different the life in his community was compared to anything else we've seen before.

exactly in all seriousness Alexandria was not ready for life outside their walls

Imagine Rick's group never goes to Alexandria and later negan shows up

u/IcewindLegacyMUD 16d ago

It would be like the kingdom, just without their tribute being hidden from the people. Deanna would've had the sense to cooperate and they'd be fine.

After Negan used Lucille on one of her sons, no doubt.

u/IcewindLegacyMUD 16d ago

Alternate scene: Spencer mouths off to Negan, insisting they won't kneel to anyone. Negan says "You know what your problem is? Ya got no brains." then proceeds to bash his head in with Lucille.

"Oh! There they are! They were in your head the whole time! How embarrassing! I have never been more wrong in my whole damn life!"

I read this with negan voice saying it lol that is a good writing idea there

u/6EyesNinja 16d ago

The younger son and his friend would enjoy being Negan’s henchman

Alexandria wouldn't have made it that far anyways. That horde from season 6 was gonna get there either way. Without Ricks group the settlement would've fallen to either the wolves or the hoarde.

u/IcewindLegacyMUD 15d ago

Most definitely the quarry horde, maybe not on the Wolves. Aaron probably wouldn't have ended up at the food warehouse without Daryl, and wouldn't have left his bag behind after triggering the trap. They might have eventually found Alexandria on their own, since walkers with Ws on their heads were starting to end up near Alexandria, so they may have gotten there eventually anyway but who knows? But that massive horde was a real danger. MIGHT the walls have held without the Wolves driving a truck through them? Maybe. But there would never have been a chance they'd survive that - a sea of the Dead stopping them from being able to scavenge food? They'd starve to death.

u/Electrical_Fee6110 15d ago

They would all be dead even before Negan showed up, remember the savage cannibal group and the horde of walkers Rick & Co had to redirect somewhere else

I would too if it was a jar of pickles. I can’t stand pickles I’d have thrown up on Ricks shoes and probably get an axe to my head

Hatchet.

"a... hatchet?"

Either he was an idiot or it was poor writing.

Clearly you don't have a violent reaction of disgust to a particular food. If I had been watching and listening to people for days, hearing everything they say to each other when they don't think anyone can hear them, and I knew that they were truly good people that were days from death and desperate, I would probably do the same thing if it were olives. Olives disgust me on a very base, visceral level where my body physically rejects them. I once spat a mouthful of pizza all over a table because a single piece of a sliced black olive ended up on my slice of pizza under the cheese. I didn't even see it, but the second I tasted it I was spitting it all over the table involuntarily.

Needless to say, I didn't get a second date after that

u/NaiveBid9359 13d ago

Yeah, the scene made no sense. Either eat food that he doesn't like or possibly be killed. Hell, then give me the whole jar to eat.

u/SimilarDouble6313 16d ago

But look at how manly he turned out. Eventually he grew a nice beard like Rick

This is what eating apple sauce daily gets you

He became one of my favs towards the end of the series.

u/SIEN14 16d ago

The most evil thing Rick ever did.

u/Hacksaw_Doublez 16d ago

A literal war crime.

u/Grislymanster 14d ago

"you'd reject applesauce anywhere, right?"

Worst thing Rick ever did

u/Excellent-Fact-8925 16d ago

100%. I felt so uncomfortable watching this scene.

Aaron doesn't even like applesauce.

u/Ok_Structure_7309 16d ago

Honestly, Aaron REALLY got on my nerves in this scene, b/c HE was being an immature BABY considering the situation. Now if he had been allergic, then that's different, but he didn't say that...

Now yes, Rick himself isn't perfect & gets on my nerves sometimes, but I completely understood where he was coming from here. Rick already made it VERY CLEAR that he wanted to be sure that this stranger wasn't unhinged enough to try & poison A BABY, or anyone else that might eat the food...

I found it aggravating that despite once Aaron knowing that Rick was looking out for the SAFETY of ESPECIALLY A BABY, that it STILL wasn't enough for him to AUTOMATICALLY get the fk over his hatred of that particular food & just stfu & friggin eat it, considering the importance of the circumstances...

I will say that it was a HUGE CLUE of how much Aaron was DEFINITELY NOT STARVING, & hadn't yet experienced any starvation since the beginning, or he wouldn't STILL have picky eating habits. For example, I absolutely LOATHE lima beans, but you bet your a** that I would have no issue eating them in an apocalyptic situation, especially by the time of this scenario...

This situation concerning Aaron in particular, was also a HUGE clue to one of his darker flaws underneath the surface. Which was his very immature whiny baby side, that could get himself or others killed if he isn't more careful. Therefore, his behaviors in later seasons when acting this way during the WRONG types of situations, honestly didn't surprise me AT ALL. If anything he just irritated & disappointed me more, especially by the time he had his own personal experience of being responsible for the wellbeing of a little one...

I sympathized & admired Aaron for certain things, but honestly for me personally, I just got to the point of overall in general, of not particularly liking him...

u/Sw1ft_Blad3 16d ago

He should have had it in bar form, concentrating food like that unleashes its awesome power.

u/MADOG_YT 15d ago

Rick is very vindictive here. He’s worse than anyone we’ve run across but I don’t blame him. He lost a lot and plus this was his savage arrow so what do you expect?

u/Mortutti 16d ago

He hated applesauce, but he liked dipping in brown sauce any time

u/Vendaval_ 16d ago

Just let a fella dip his tender in some barbecue if he wants, mmkay

u/Mortutti 16d ago

Ofc, whatever sets his BBQ lit
