## The story

The Brine Balloon was a pickle the size of a cucumber, floating in a puffy plastic pouch of green brine. You tore the top, pulled it halfway out and ate it like a banana, brine running down your wrist. Some kids drank the brine afterward to prove something. Nobody was ever quite sure what.

## Fun fact

The balloon was nearly impossible to open without spraying brine on whoever was standing to your left.
