Pickles — Definitely a Texas Thang!
Apr 2, 2022
When I moved to Texas from Illinois, I had no idea how popular pickles were.
Up north, sure, people ate pickles. But in Texas, a lot of people eat pickles.
My wife eats them; all of her four sisters eat them; her brother eats them; when I step outside, everyone seems to be eating them; and pickles are even a food staple at movie theaters!
People even look at you strangely if you order a bucket of popcorn without a pickle or two.
It may sound like I am complaining, but the longer I’ve lived in Texas, the more I have embraced and appreciated the brined cucumber.
Sometimes I wonder, how did this happen?
