April, I wasn't saying that they were dumb and I know that the stuff is selling but I must admit that I would have a problem consuming a gallon of pickles before they get moldy and yucky. I'd probably turn into a pickle after that. I wasn't critical of Wal-Mart, they're only catering to the market demand, but I find it incredible that market demands gallon sized jars of pickles. What is next? 50 LBS bag of Hershey's kisses?
