Any others besides me suddenly fond of sweet bread-and-butter pickles? (Original Post) raccoon Oct 2019 OP
I cut those up and put them in tuna fish sandwiches. Either that or sweet relish. shraby Oct 2019 #1

Would a bolder tasting coffee help, bold as in dark roast? braddy Oct 2019 #3
Have tried, I think it's the combo of milk/cream and sweetener; elleng Oct 2019 #5
I'm not a big fan, but those pickles really compliment some sandwiches and dishes. braddy Oct 2019 #4

having awful time with taste buds/tongue, NOTHING tastes good, haven't had a decent cup of coffee for weeks.

P.S. Lost my taste for pickled stuff after first pregnancy, 35 years ago!!!

Again, NOTHING tastes good (except ice cream after midnight!)

Mt. Olive makes a good dill pickle and hamburger dills. I like Claussen for a good, crisp, cold kosher dill.

But, I see those pickles just like butterscotch candy. Everyone hates them when they're young. Once they reach a certain age (around 60), they love them. It's weird. I'm expecting the same for myself. I hate both now, but I'm sure in about 20 years I'll be buying them up like crazy.

Tomato soup, grilled cheese sandwich, bread-and-butter pickles.

If that doesn't work, horseradish will clear things up. (the Polish nuclear option)

My grandmother made them and they were wonderful. But I have no idea how many decades it's been since I last ate one.
