We used to have give-aways gathered from various airline items collected over the course of the year. Rather more exotic, non-AC amenity kits were often on offer in the pre-eBay day. 24Left, surprised there were no cello-sealed pickles. Was in the Dollar store the other day and noticed twin packs of corn on the cob, imported from Thailand of all places! Just drop the sealed bag into boiling water for 5-minutes and enjoy. AA lounge at YYZ had cello packed Omega3 hard boiled eggs.

Have not seen any in cello wrap, but I went searching.

Tripped over this site and still laughing.

Been a while since I posted (sorta regularly), but if you have space for 1 more (or waitlist), I'd like to join.
The last event at the Royal York last year was good. Esp. when the server was asked for a pitcher of beer... lol

You can happily move yourself to confirmed. AFAIK, there is no maximum number of attendees.

OH MY. I just realized why Pickle Barrel is the venue. I swear I need to cut back on the alc, brain is melting.

I should buy 3 x 5-gallon and fly them from Vancouver to Toronto. I'm guessing 40 pounds each, easily under the limit...

Anyone know how long they hold unclaimed bags?

Edit: I need to figure out if pickles are in "Brine"... This might be a showstopper... =(
