Next summer you will be eating frozen pickles

If aliens descended to earth, they would probably be confused by some of our warm-weather treats.

“Snow cones?” the aliens would say. “Wouldn’t it make more sense to just throw sugary syrup on actual snow in the winter, when it’s so plentiful?”

Then the aliens would vaporize you. But that’s hardly the point.

The point is that we already eat some weird stuff — and it’s only going to get weirder. For example, our friends at MenuPages have uncovered the next great frozen treat craze — frozen pickle juice in a plastic tube.

It’s like Joe Camel’s poop is trying to sell you something

As revealed in the video below, the geniuses at Pickle Sickle started their company a little while back after they were unable to keep tiny cups of frozen pickle juice on hand at skating rinks in Texas.

If that last sentence made any sense at all, I suggest you give up hallucinogens for Lent.

The makers of the Pickle Sickle say the pops are a healthy alternative to sugary frozen treats, and have become all the rage among the “culinary elite” of Texas. I don’t believe it, but then I used to dunk sour cream and onion chips into milk like they were Oreos.

So take that, Smorak from Zrbniic 12.
