Cool off with frozen pickle juice in a tube
When I was a young, every summer my cousin Harlan would come to spend a few weeks with my family. He lived in Hawaii, so coming to Los Angeles or Portland seemed like a strange way for him to spend part of his summer vacation, but he seemed to enjoy it and I loved to see him, so everyone was happy. About a month before he was scheduled to arrive, we would start saving pickle juice for him, because he loved the stuff (you weren't expecting that one, were you?). I always thought it was gross, but he looked forward to the jars of briny, green-tinged liquid, so we kept doing it.
Apparently, Harlan isn't the only one out there who is partial to pickle juice. The Pickle Sickle is a pickle juice pop that you can drink from the tube or freeze it and enjoy it as you would a popsicle. The company that created this "treat" is selling it to schools as a way to move away from the corn syrup filled Otter Pops (and other sweet frozen desserts).
What do you guys think? Horrible idea or intriguing treat?

Food Oddities: The Pickle Sickle
We've covered some odd food and drink products here at Slashfood, from Lamb & Mint Potato Chips to Pizza Flavored Beer to Turkey and Gravy Soda, but this might be one of the weirdest. They're Pickle Sickles: popsicles made with pickle juice.
Now, I like interesting food products, and I'm even interested in those Kool-Aid Pickles Joanne talked about a couple of months ago, but popsicles made out of pickle juice? Yeah, that's refreshment: the ice cold feel of a popsicle for those hot summer days, only with the taste of pickles! Check out the site though. The ordering page is blank right now, but there's a "Pickle Sickle Song" to keep you entertained.
If anyone tries these, please let us know how they are.
Pickle Juice Sport
Hey, if we can have cravings for sour cream and dill flavored chips, why not in a drink?
That's what Brandon Brooks thought back in the year 2000, when he hypothesized that people "sneak" a sip of the juice from a jar of pickles. He confirmed his hypothesis when Eagles players drank pickle juice to stay hydrated in the 120 degree heat at Texas Stadium against the Cowboys. Pickle juice was a sports drink? Apparently.
Now Pickle Juice is official as Pickle Juice Sport, made with natural dill, vinegar and salt. It's not caffeinated (now getting buzzed on pickle juice would just be weird), and thankfully, not carbonated.
