ok so my question is about..pickles..why are pickled cucumbers plainly called “pickles” instead of pickled cucumbers? i mean..everythign else pickled has the name of what it is as well IE pickled pigs feet, pickled artichoke hearts, pickled eggs..so what makes pickled cucumbers so special that they get to be merely called “pickles”
and this..is what ADD does to me when i am bored and have nothing to do ::sigh::
