Today is National Pickle Day! I’m not a fan of pickles at all, but my husband LOVES them. His favorite quote from the TV show “Everybody Loves Raymond” is when Raymond eats a pickle and says it’s “a food and a drink!” My husband isn’t alone in his love of pickles. More than 67% of American households eat pickles, and Americans eat more than 9 pounds of pickles per person every year. That’s a lot of pickles! For the pickle fans in your life, here are some fun pickle gifts that they’ll love.

Get your pickle lovers laughing with this Picolas Cage T-shirt. It’s available in a bunch of different styles and background colors, although this pickle green seems most fitting.

PICKLE WINE STOPPERS

I don’t know if pickles go with wine, but they sure make fun wine bottle stoppers. The stoppers are BPA-free, made of food safe silicone and can be washed in the dishwasher.

If you’re like me and not a fan of pickles, try Branston Pickle from the U.K. It’s the only kind of pickle I like.
