Take a Mini Road Trip to a Pickle Paradise in Ft. Worth

Have you ever had a friend so obsessed with pickles she makes you scour all the beer and liquor stores for pickle beer? No? Just me? Cool. I will never be a fan of pickles but for some reason all my best friends are obsessed. They go as far as getting pickled flavored sunflower seeds.

When I found out about the pickle paradise opening up in Fort Worth I instantly texted my friend to plan our road trip. Yes, I am that friend who supports my buddy's bad habits. My friend's pickle fantasies are all about to come true.

How lucky are we that it's just half a gas tank away?
