Pickles aren't just having a moment or a year, it seems like pickles are having a decade. From waiting for Sonic's pickle slushes this summer to our discovery of all things dill pickle-flavored, we just can't stop seeing pickles everywhere. If we're not waxing poetic on the health benefits of pickle juice or drooling over moonshine pickles and whiskey pickles, we're eating pickles. And what's the most annoying thing about eating pickles? Not being able to reach the last few pickles at the bottom of the pickle jar. Say hello to the pickle jar fork, y'all.
I don't know about you, but the last thing I want to do when I'm craving a pickled snack is to dunk my hand into the jar of pickle juice just to pinch one mini dill from the bottom. Luckily, that's where this amazing condiment fork comes in.
