Happy National Pickle Day!

Do you know what today is?  It is Babbit's favorite holiday.  It is National Pickle Day.

Did you know...

Cleopatra ate pickles because she thought they kept her beautiful.

In Mississippi they make Kool-Aid pickles by soaking dill pickles in kool-aid.

In Connecticut it is not officially a pickle unless it bounces.

Berrien Springs, Michigan, has dubbed itself the Christmas Pickle Capital of the World. In early December, they host a parade, led by the Grand Dillmeister, who tosses out fresh pickles to parade watchers.

Christopher Columbus gave pickles to his sailors to prevent scurvy.

Americans consume more than nine pounds of pickles per person annually.


How ever you celebrate Pickle Day we hope you celebrate responsibly.  Remember to always use protection.
