Madison:
I'm staring at a glass jar I pulled from my refrigerator.  The label
says Nalley barrel cured hamburger dill chips.  Ingredients listed are
cucumbers, water, vinegar, salt, turmeric, paprika, and spice?  Who
knows what spice they are talking about?  I'm not a sweet pickle lover
by any means, but I wouldn't turn one down in a dark alley.  I love dill
pickles Madison and these don't have an ounce of dill in them ;0).  I
just ate a few of them and they are pretty damned sour.  I think it's
time to drop a couple of barrel cured habs in this jar...Ian

Well I used to think that too. Then I took a bite of home made dill
pickles.
Nasty..Tasted like dill weed. Not sour at all. Since then I have stayed
away
from home made dill pickles. That is why is say sour. The vinegar may be
the
key.
