Hi. I just got home from a local supermarket and i saw "pickled onions" i havent seen those since i was a kid. 
PICKLED ONIONS!  I used to drink them in martinis.  Now I just use olives.
Oh wow !! Really? i have never heard of that. I remember going to the bar as a kid when my mom worked there and eating pickled onions, eggs or sausages tho
Yes...I remember those pickled eggs.  Jeez that was nasty.  All the old guys would come in and have that and a beer.
lol. yes they were very popular in the bars. I liked the onions the best because i liked peeling the layers and eating them that way. What else comes pickled ? lol
Lol.  The pickling process is pretty interesting to me, a simple brine or vinegar and voila, it lasts for months.
