close your eyes, run your fingers over that hard long green vegetable (I don't like soft pickles usually, unless they are chopped up and on a hotdog), feel the texture, taste it, the sour tanginess ...or if you prefer sweet pickles, that tangy sweetness; bite it, hear and feel the crisp break of the skin and the sudden penetration of your teeth into the meat of the matter, pickle that is; don't swallow it right away, chew it and roll it around in your mouth to enjoy every last bit of savory flavor and texture. How's that, jewels?
