Do You Ever Get in a Pickle?
If you get in a pickle, it means you are in trouble of some kind! It might even mean it's time to ask God to help you get out of some trouble. But just eating pickles will probably never get you in a pickle.
Did you know those pickles you like with a sandwich were made with the vegetable called a cucumber? Did you know a pickle is just a cucumber in disguise? Does this mean you've been eating a vegetable with your sandwich? Yes it does.
When a cucumber is mixed with sugar, vinegar, and spices and cooked, it turns into a pickle. And if its made properly, a pickle will make a crunch sound when you bite into one. In fact the pickle packers International "Guide to Perfect Pickles" says that you                                                           should be able to hear that crunch at ten paces.
If you'd like to try the crunch test, you could get a friend to hold a pickle while you walk ten paces (big steps) away from him or her. Then get your friend to bite into the pickle, and see if you can hear the crunch. If you can, you've got a perfect Pickle - and a delicious way to eat one of God's vegetables!
