How many pickles are in this photo?

[mcblink]

So help LRT and I settle an argument please.

In this photo, I cut 2 (whole) big dill pickles into spears. I now have 8 spears......but only 2 pickles...follow me???

Now, say that I cut these 2 cucumbers into 8 spears, before the pickling process, and THEN pickled them, do I have 8 individual pickles now? Or is it two?

I maintain that I have 8 pickles, because if not for the pickling process, they would not be pickles any which way.



LRT, on the other hand says a pickle is a whole pickled cucumber.

So where does this leave pickled peppers? Pickled onions? Pickled eggs? Pickled pig's feet? Pickled sausage?

I say anything pulled out of the pickle jar is a goddamned pickle. LRT says it has to have a skin on it to be considered a whole pickle.

Please help us, TTR. You're our only hope.

We're about to go outside and thump our bare chests over this deal.

poop.

That's great and all, but does the tootsie pop have to be whole? If you pickle a whole tootsie pop, you have a pickle. That's a given.

If you pickle half a tootsie pop, it's still a pickle, no?

Or does the entire tootsie pop have to be present in order for it to be a pickle?

You two are involved in something that cracks me up.

It's not important how many pickles I see, how many do you see?

This reminds me, I need to get pickled, starting now...

But I see two pickles, quartered and salted.
They also look slightly warmed and very delicious.

They have been salted with garlic salt...they were pretty good!

What if they are deep fried?

I think that as many pieces go into the jar is how many pickles you have. If you remove 1 pickle from the jar and slice it into 10 pieces you obviously made/purchased the wrong type of pickle for the job.
