I love pickles, the crunchier and the more dill-like, the better. My favorite thing to do is to get a nice soft hot dog bun and warm it in the oven (wrapped in foil so that it doesn't dry out). Then I steam a good frank, and put it in the bun along with a piece of american cheese and some yellow mustard. Then I grab several tiny, baby gherkins from the pickle jar, and pile them on top. It's messy, but unbelivably fabulous and perfect for the summer.

Mmm...kosher dills. They're far and away the best thing ever. I remember my mom teaching me how to "gleak" with them, where after you take a bite you roll your tongue up to the roof of your mouth and your salivary glands can launch. Yep, we were disgusting!
