    Pickles are so good. Been experiment with pickling all sorts of things lately. Turns out, home pickling is shockingly easy, safe and versatile. It seems a bit sussy at first, but, assuming you got the salt to weight right, it’s basically bullet proof. And these pickles are so much tastier than the stuff at the store. Like, the lacto fermented stuff is just so much more complex than the vinegar stuff at the store.

        Picklez is any food preserved in an acidic solution. But that acidity can be generated in many ways. Such as by adding stuff to an existing acidic solution, like vinegar, but also by creating an environment that consistently breeds safe microorganisms that will create an acidic environment and outcompete the icky microorganisms that make my tummy hort.

        Truly you are the coolest though.

      … it doesn’t have to be, but there is a strong correlation between increases in hormones normally elevated in women and a craving for pickles… so like… probably an enhanced demographic overlap.

        More than that, the most common testosterone blocker is a potassium sparing diuretic. I used to crave pickles frequently before going off it after bottom surgery.
