One of our hormone drugs, spironolactone (spiro), is a diuretic so we're often salt deprived and craving salty foods. I'm not 100% sure why pickles specifically but I know with estrogen my sense of taste changed and now I get cravings for things that is sometimes strong enough to be a distraction until I eat that food. Pickles are a common craving during pregnancy as well and HRT floods our systems with similar hormones.

I know you were joking, but it’s actually not a terrible point and I updated the post :-)

I'd eat it. I wish I had one right now.

Check your local grocery store. There are otter pops that are pickle juice instead of sugar water, and they're amazing.

Iirc they're usually near the sports drinks.

Pickle brine doesn't actually freeze in a household freezer, so yeah this would just be cold pickle brine.

That might actually be pretty good if you used bread and butter pickles!

I’m a fan of pickle juice, I wouldn’t turn my nose up at these!

I had the same exact thought. The idea is unusual, but I think this might actually be good.

It is, they actually sell them in stores now.

Might be a better health benefit if you used it as an enema

[–] Num10ck@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

considering its mostly vinegar, even the normal usage can provide the same result.
