Any others besides me suddenly fond of sweet bread-and-butter pickles?

I think because of my declining taste buds.

I cut those up and put them in tuna fish sandwiches. Either that or sweet relish. shraby Oct 2019 #1

having awful time with taste buds/tongue, NOTHING tastes good, haven't had a decent cup of coffee for weeks.

P.S. Lost my taste for pickled stuff after first pregnancy, 35 years ago!!!

Again, NOTHING tastes good (except ice cream after midnight!)

Mt. Olive makes a good dill pickle and hamburger dills. I like Claussen for a good, crisp, cold kosher dill.

But, I see those pickles just like butterscotch candy. Everyone hates them when they're young. Once they reach a certain age (around 60), they love them. It's weird. I'm expecting the same for myself. I hate both now, but I'm sure in about 20 years I'll be buying them up like crazy.
