Mine is pickled beets, no dill (sorry beans, you’re second). Nothing against dill, I love it in most pickles but prefer my beets unadulterated.
Horseradish bread& butter chips are awesome! But I fell in love with a mango habanero guy from Walmart that was actually kinda spicy despite it being corpo slop attempting to seem trendy, and of course they discontinue it a few weeks after I discover it!
I’m a sucker for ‘sweet mixed pickles’, especially the cauliflower for its unique crunch.
Bubbie’s pickles. I like the garlic-y taste much more than any other brand.
zesty dill gherkins.
Dill or sour for cucumbers, and anything not sweet for whatever else (eggplant, radish, plum, etc)
Pickled okra is definitely my favorite so far. Haven’t tried those eggs at the gas station checkout yet…
Pickled eggs are nothing special. You use them wherever you’d use a regular chilled pre-boiled egg. They have a bit of extra tang from whatever they were pickled in, but it’s very underwhelming, IMO.
But then maybe you’ll be the person who thinks they’re amazing. What do I know.
I had hoped to pickle beets this year…fuckin ants and rabbits man.
I feel you, I dumped a bunch of azomite in my garden a few years ago, all of my beets were softball size or larger with massive chunks eaten out haha

Bread and Butter
I like fresh pickles, when they’re right off the vine. I just rinse them off and slice them and eat as is.
Zesty bread & butter. It’s basically bread & butter that’s a little spicy. If I can’t find any, I sometimes make my own with a standard jar of bread & butter and add a couple spoonfuls of red pepper flake to the jar and let it sit for a couple days.

Sweet Gherkins
There’s a special something about pickled okra.
Close second is pickled watermelon rind.
Edit: Almost forgot about Maille brand Cornichons. So good, especially with pate, or some liver wurst
You can pickle watermelon… rind? It becomes edible?
Absolutely. Tends to be a southern United States thing. Pickled Watermelon
Huh, TIL! Thanks for the recipe.
Dill hot pickles, none of that nasty sweet pickle shit.
Kimchi
I do love me some kimchi
