Pickle On A Stick

Can't get enough of that pickle on a stick!

These are some more shots of people eating pickles on a stick, at the Lower East Side Pickle Day celebration:

What's this?

Eating corn.

Corn?!

Maybe she's from Brooklyn!

Pickle Day

Yesterday was Pickle Day! It wasn't in the East Village though, it was in the Lower East Side, on Orchard Street, right across Houston Street from the East Village. Yours truly was there with my camera.

Some of the pickle events were very popular, and the lines were long:

Long lines.

More long lines.

There were pickles of all varieties: deep-fried pickles, pickles on a stick, pickles on a toothpick, and pickled cabbage.

Deep-friend pickles.

Even pickled cabbage!

Of course, Pickle Day would not be complete without a visit from Mr. Pickle!

Being with the press, I was afforded a view behind the scenes:

Even celebrities were drawn to the event:

There was even a ten-year-old DJ, playing dance music for the younger crowd:

It was fun for the whole family!

Baby with a pickle.
