   Okay, now you've done it. Bear in mind that I grew up about 100 miles from Bentonville.

   Yew fancy-schmancy city slickers just don't know what good eatin is. Get a couple of your buddies, their coon dawgs, copius quantities of beer, and just relax in the back yard, drinking, eatin pickles, and shooting anything that comes to mind.

   Sorry, that is the best I can do on the spur of the moment.

April, I wasn't saying that they were dumb and I know that the stuff is selling but I must admit that I would have a problem consuming a gallon of pickles before they get moldy and yucky. I'd probably turn into a pickle after that. I wasn't critical of Wal-Mart, they're only catering to the market
demand, but I find it incredible that market demands gallon sized jars of pickles. What is next? 50 LBS bag of Hershey's kisses?
