Fúckin love em. Spent along time searching for the secret ingredient that made homemade burgers taste as good as McDonalds. I knew I hit the jackpot when I found these!

WindSock

No in the past, yes in the present.

i love them, so much that for past 3 years Ive been growing them. When you get a burger, it usually only has about 3 slices. I add about 10 to my own.

Celly Smunt

only mcdonalds ones

mikemac

Love them

Have to laugh at people in McDonalds picking apart their burgers to take them out.
Why buy something you don't even like?
You know you can ask the staff to make a burger without them anyway?

The easiest way to do this would have been to open up a McDonalds burger and have a look at what's in it... A gherkin.

Devil08

Do you pickle them aswell? I find the pickled taste is the best part. so scrumscious! Forget the beef, just throw a load of Gherkins between two buns

Schism

Not for me, they're the only think I pick off a burger.

Hated them as a kid...would physically retch if there was one in a burger and I bit into it...hated onions as well.
As I got older, the tastes started appealing to me...mustard is the only fast food thing I never acquired a taste for...

No Poll?

I love Gherkins on Burgers, the taste of them reminds me of my first time in McDonalds when I was a kid being brought to Cinema for the first time that night also.

Devil08

ah mustard...thats another days work, a fine ingredient I must say. Mustard and Ham - Like Laurel and Hardy

Kiera

It's a burger joint, not a restaurant. And I have hands. :pac: I worked when I was a kid and I hated people that pissed around at the till dreaming up custom burgers so I usually fucked up their order out of spite.

I also rarely get burgers in those places so I don't usually have to.

candy-gal1

Love them from the jar but hate them on burgers!

Devil08

Interesting, maybe its the burger you dont like and not the gherkin on it?

SV

Yes, nom nom.

Dob74

I dont like gherkins....... oh no

Biggins

Don't like gherkins.
I must pass them on.

They're great, and there's even a temple in London to commemorate their greatness.

In the words of Churchill the dog.... Ohhhhhh Yesssssssss

Devil08

looks more like a silver bullet, but green...

MetzgerMeister

I used HATE them in anything, WITH A PASSION!!

Now I love them and even eat them on their own straight from the jar

You can kill werewolves with a gherkin-shot to the head.

AssaultedPeanut

Gherkin burger for me. No need for anything else tbh

dotsman

Gherkins are evil.

I never eat in McDonalds for this very reason. Gherkin-free Burger King all the way.

Banji

I take them out. There's always someone there who will eat them.

Kold

Pickles are awesome. I just don't like it when I get the end of one.

Devil08

Looking at the poll it seems Gherkins are here to stay guys. Its a victory for the gherkin!

Thrill

Yom yom yom, love em.

sponsoredwalk

I heard last night that they go great with vodka!

face1990

They're my favourite bit of the burger. I'm always kinda disappointed when I've eaten them and have to eat the rest of the burger gherkinlessly.

Needless to say, any homemade burgers are extremely gherkinful.

Gherkin is such a wierd word.

Scarydoll

Love gherkins but not on burgers.

The gherkins that you get in burgers tend to be kinda crappy (though i still monch them) and this puts a lot of people off.
But there's absolutely no comparioson of a sh*ttys maccers gherkin and proper pickled gherkins that you chop up yourself for sambos. With beetroot too. Nyomers

I still enjoy the McDonalds ones, and if I'm there with friends they all give me the gherkins from their burgers, so that I can have extra in mine,but you're right the ones that you buy in the glass jars are far superior. Sometimes I just pick one out of the jar and eat it by itself.:)

Sometimes when I'm too lazy to make a sandwich I just grap a gherkin and hunk of cheese and wrap them up in a couple of slices of ham and stuff them all into my gob

WIZE

They scoff them down but always manage to leave the gherkins . Like a magic trick

Dunny

Never actually ate one straight out of a jar before. Very tempted to now!:D

JONJO THE MISER

Looked for them today in Aldi, big jar 87c you cant beat it, used to hate them before but now i love em.

Krusader

The gherkins in a Big Mac, spot on!

fonecrusher1

I like them in burgers in McDonaldsdisease. They definitely make a positive contribution to the overall taste of the food item.

If someone asked me to eat one from a jar i'd punch him square in his ovaries.

They are ****ing sexy.
