This is completely unrealistic. You know they would charge a lot more than that

Where I live "pickles" without any elaboration usually means small picked onions so it must just depend on what the most common type of pickled vegetable is where you are and in the US that's cucumbers.

Btw we call pickled cucumbers gherkins if they're big and cornichons if they're small.

Sliced American style pickled cucumbers are sometimes called pickles but thats the influence of American fast food.

Codependency is when you become reliant on another individual, or individuals for basic functions or emotional needs. This is unhealthy because over reliance can lead to not developing necessary skills (literally and emotional). When those individuals are taken away, either by death, a break up, moving, or another reason, the codependent person can no longer function. We all rely on others, but by over relying it can lead us to a greater struggle down the road. Its important to build basic skills, including emotional ones, even if you expect to always have people in your life.

Milk is on its way to becoming called cow milk. With the rise in other alternative

Pickled jalapeño, carrots, radish (you’ll find these three very commonly at taquerias), red onion, sauerkraut, olives, pickled eggs are common in the south as is pickled sausage, kimchi, pickled peppers are very common on sandwiches and pizza.

Those are all common things I can think of off the top of my head.

In the UK something sold as a cornichon is generally small, quite sour and will feature no dill.

I'm now thinking about a crazy world where insurance companies have their hooks in every public service.

Operator: 911, what's your emergency?

Person: I'm locked in my bathroom! My husband's gone crazy and says he's going to kill me!

Operator: Ok, I'll need your address and insurance information and we'll send an officer over right away.

Person: Ok here it is!

Operator: Hmm...It seems your insurance plan doesn't cover domestic violence so you'll have to pay $787 out of pocket. Do you still want us to send an officer over?

Oh my god. A corn maize.

It’s delicious. I used to have a few bottles that I ordered from Jamaica.

Amaizeing fact?

i don't think this question will stay, but I'll have a go at it.

then and than do not sound the same when spoken, they sound similar, but not the same. the 'e' in 'then' is a more closed sound than the 'a' in 'than'.

you might want to compare other words with the same sounds:

• ben, ban
• send, sand
• lend, land

'then' tends to be used when talking about sequences. "i do this, then i do that", it can also be logical sequences: "if you rob a bank, then you will go to jail"

'than' tends to be used more for comparisons: "I'd rather have a nice car than a small payrise", "there's nothing more satisfying than spending the night with your friends".

although I'm not a linguist so I'm probably missing a lot of uses.

Pickled eggs are amazing & super versatile if you want to make/flavor your own. I've done black pepper & garlic as well as red curry flavored. They essentially taste like a boiled egg so still eggy but pickled, tangy & delicious!

No they don't sound the same.

"Then" means "happening next". I'm going to work, and then to the gym, then driving home.

"Than" is for comparisons. You are taller than me. Mexico is hotter than Canada.

Funnily enough, "pickled <anything>" is used in Finland for just about everything else BUT pickled cucumbers. Here, they are called either "salt cucumbers" or "spice cucumbers".

Very much a naming thing in North America. In India, pickles are combo of oil, vinegar, spices and fruits or vegetables and can refer to any one of hundreds of varieties.

Amazing fact.

Sauerkraut isn’t pickled.

It is a vague term, but usually involves some sort of initiative toward state subsidies for healthcare programs for all workers in all industrial sectors.

But sauerkraut is fermented and that is not the same as pickling.

>cornichons

That's the French word for pickles.
