Excuse me but bottom left ist just cucumber

Anything but sweet pickles. Those things are a fuckin war crime.

Y'all know you can pickle more than cucumbers right

Whole baby dills are my favorite. I think the brand I like best is also fermented?

Anyway, I went on a bit of a pickle bender quite some time ago, bought all sorts of pickles to find my favorite. I somehow wound up with 2 open jars and 1 unopened, all of my favorite. After some time had passed, the jars that had been open began developing some stuff on the sides of the jar above the water line. Since they're fermented to begin with, and the brine is supposed to be cloudy I imagine it's totally normal and still safe to eat, but it's weirded me out, and now they've been sitting in my fridge for over a year because I feel guilty throwing them away until I know for sure, and I can't open the third jar knowing I already have 2 open jars.

Edit: I took some pictures. I think one is likely safe, the other likely mold?

Safe?

Mold?

Cheap pickles are floppy and have no crunch. They suck. Good firm crunchy pickles though... yeah that's the stuff.

Try deep fried pickles then come back.

Why you fighting? that just means more pickles for you.

I don't really care for dills much unless they're our good homemade dills, and even then i really only like them on their own, not in/on things.

Sweet pickles are my favorite (especially baby sweets OMG) but my partner says sweet pickles are too much of a pain in the ass to make at home. She makes batches of "bread and butter" slices which are really good, but not the same. Sadly I have to go store bought for my sweet pickle fix.

Her hot & spicy pickles are petty bomb too.

Fuck pickles, unless they are on a Cuban sandwich then they're chill.

Pick... ing a fight?

commercial pickles make my stomache really fucked up but home made is fine. I suspect corporate greed and 'generally recognized as safe'

Is this Loss somehow? Or am I going crazy?

I think cucumbers were just fine. I like cucumbers.

I like pickles, but never see the point in getting them because sauerkraut, and kimchi, are better.

I only hate sweet pickles. Gimme the zesty dills all damn day. 🤤

Pickled food tastes like ass.

Pickles are like fermented cucumber. Fermented stuff are tasty 🤤

Except fermented cabbage.
