The Back StoryMore: One meaning of pickle (when used as a verb) is to preserve, souse,
marinate. Our pickle design has been pickled. Also, there’s a pickle
(used as a noun) as “I’m in a real pickle at the moment.” In this
instance, pickle means: plight, predicament, mess, difficulty, trouble,
etc. Our green pickle ornament may give someone a giggle who’s in a
pickle or is a pickle-person because of his/her love for pickles—sweet
or dill.
