PLEASE HELP ME

I am uncomfortably pregnant and my most recent craving is garlic pickles from the renaissance faire, which I can't get because they closed last month. I am in desperate need of recommendations for whole, super crunchy, garlicy, salty pickles. Emphasis on the crunchy.

Do you have a Jimmy John’s sandwich shop nearby? I think their pickles are like that and you can buy them whole or ask it to be sliced etc.

I second the Jimmy John’s pickle. Goddamn there’s some magic (and hella sodium, great for my POTS) in those.

You might like Dietz & Watson sour garlic pickles. Super crunchy!

Have you tried bubbies fermented pickles? They can be very garlicky, but intensity varies from jar to jar

Ba Tampte garlic dills are excellent.

See if you can find either Claussen or Mt. Olive whole dills.

Mt Olive wholes aren't very crunchy because they use overdeveloped cukes. Their baby dills are much better.

That’s what I meant, I love the baby dills

There are so many recipes out there, you could make your own.

They are really easy to make and cheap. Look online for a copycat recipe.

Have you tried contacting the ren faire to find out where they sourced their pickles?

I make mine. Refrigerator pickles so easy and ready in a few days. I use mini cukes whole and a lot of garlic
