I've got to call the attention of people reading this thread to an item in today's Express version of The Washington Post that the newspaper gives out at DC-area subway and bus stops.

The article is on unexpected kitchen items such as pancake batter in a spray can. I couldn't find a link on the Post's website, so this is a retype and I'm responsible for any typos.


Bob's Pickle Pops

These are not frozen pickles -- they are sticks of "freshly squeezed pickle" and brine. There's a spicy version, too.
