Ladies.
I like the taste of pickles, especially on a burger, but I don’t like the slimy, wet texture. So what I recently started doing is marinating shredded iceberg lettuce in pickle juice. And I top the burger with that. Is this a known thing? Surely throughout the history of human cooking, somebody thought of this. I alway dress my burgers and sandwiches with shredded iceberg lettuce for the texture. My wife, friends and family treat me like a weirdo when I mention this iceberg/pickle hybrid. Granted, I may be a weirdo, but I think my argument is valid. Pickle Lettuce should be a thing.

No!!! Out of the jar, pickles are fine. But when you put them on a hot burger they wilt after a couple of minutes. It has nothing to do with the quality of the pickle. I find that pickled iceberg lettuce is vastly superior in crunch and taste to lettuce + pickle.

As someone extremely wary of lettuce because of its tendency to become wet sludge in an instant, while simultaneously being a god-tier fridge pickle maker who makes the crispest crunchiest pickles on earth, you aren’t making a lick of sense buddy.

Finally, a take that would have unified the food hot takes thread.

Serious question, why not just use sauerkraut?

to be fair, dressing your lettuce before throwing it on a sandwich is a power move and just makes a lot of sense

I love a good caesar burger. Dress some romaine lettuce with caesar dressing and fresh paresean. It's a god tier burger topping.

I took this move from Matty Matteson and it's made my subs a lot better. Also the bread scoop is crucial

The legend of the pickle lettuce spreading far and wide, becoming more and more incredible and convoluted with each wild-eyed, whispered retelling.
