No, I myself am not a sweet and spicy pickle... but sometimes I do play one on TV.
This is my little 'review' of a sweet and spicy pickle that I recently found at a local store. The are 'Meijer' brand... if you don't spend much time in Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, or Kentucky , you may have never heard of Meijer, they are a relatively large regional chain of stores, similar to a Walmart ( but for me at least, much nicer stores , in most cases ). Meijer has some products that carry their own brand name, and has recently put some varieties of sweet and spicy pickles out on shelves.
I tried three varieties so far. "Spicy Maple Bourbon" is my favorite at this point, but they have a Chipitole version that is pretty good, and another Mango Habanaro that I didn't like quite as much ( not a big fan of Mango ).
When I bought them, I didn't expect that much from the Spicy Maple Bourbon, it just seemed like a odd combination... but wow, they are very good. For me, just the right amount of heat and sweet... been a while since I actually tasted Bourbon ( like 30+ years ), so I can't say for sure how much it tastes like Bourbon, but it really is a wonderful flavor.
Pros - Cheaper then some of the name brand pickles that have similar sweet/hot flavors.. Tastes as good or better then some of the more expensive pickles
Cons - You can only get them if you have a Meijer store near you, I don't think they do any online sales or anything like that. Other then that , the only other con is that they taste so good, you might just want to sit there and eat the whole jar.
A side note... I don't remember the first brand of sweet/spicy pickles I had tried, but I recently became a big fan of this type of pickle. Famous Dave's makes a pretty decent one ( but not the Devil's Spit , those are to hot for my tastes )... There are a lot of brands out now that sell similar style pickles, but wow.. I didn't realize how expensive pickles can be... that's why I was really happy to see a fairly decent price on the Meijer brand pickles.
Recommendation - I absolutely would recommend these pickles to anyone who likes a sweet and spicy pickle, ( similar to a bread and butter pickle, but spicy)...
