Alamo Candy Big Tex Dill Pickle In Chamoy - Three Pickles - Individually Wrapped - Made In San Antonio, Texas - Large Pickles

I dunno why, but I like these. No, they don’t taste like Chamoy, but it’s an acquired taste I guess? In the past, I’ve gotten some, let’s say, not fresh product. This round, all three (3) were firm, not mushy in middle and not too tough. Always well packed and never leaked

The only way to eat this pickle is to do so wearing a plastic smock, plastic gloves, outside away from public view. Or barring those, completely naked under a waterfall. From the moment you open the package, you and your surroundings will look they were involved in a 1980’s slasher movie. This product will have you quoting Macbeth, “ “Will all great Neptune's ocean wash this blood clean from my hand?” Nope. It’s on there for good. Your clothes, hands, lips and teeth will be crimson and no amount of scrubbing is going to fix your clothes.Is the flavor worth the mess? Nope. Salty, sour and mushy but where’s the unique spicy flavor? No where to be found. Gross all the way around.

Hear me out… writing yhis because it’s my 4th time purchasing these.I get it—this pickle is definitely an acquired taste. If you’re a gringo, this might not be for you.I grew up in Latin America, surrounded by all kinds of chamoy brands. And trust me, not all chamoy is the same. Some are on the sweeter side, but others (like this one) lean more into the sour, salty, and tangy side of things.This pickle? It’s heavy on that sour and salty chamoy flavor, with just a touch of medium/hot heat. So if you’re looking for a sweet candy-style chamoy, this ain’t it. But if you were raised in Mexico like me—where chamoy often packs a punch—this one hits the spot.Yes, it stains. The package clearly states it contains Red 40. I get that not everyone loves the idea of Red 40, but honestly, eating this on special occasions isn’t going to hurt.Final verdict: if you’re in it for the experience, know what you’re getting into—this is for the sour-salty chamoy lovers out there. If you didn’t grow up with that flavor profile, it might be a shock to the taste buds. But for those of us who did? It’s perfect.

I normally don't eat spicy foods, but I fell I'm love with these pickles. I tried them the first time and that was it afterward. Be careful the juice and the pickle will stain your hands, clothes, and anything else it touches. The pickle has a bitter, but spicy taste to it, the more and more you bite into it.

A bit expensive for what you get

As a Chamoy and pickle addict, I was stoked to try these. Paid the ridiculous $30 for 3 pickles because I *had* to try them.The good: They’re quite huge. They do have a very slight, barely detectable taste of Chamoy. They taste ok. Probably worth trying if you’re a pickle & Chamoy addict, and you’re dying of curiosity as I was.The bad: They don’t taste much like Chamoy, and pretty sure the red juice is just red-dyed vinegar. Other than the barely there taste of chamoy, there’s no real flavor. No garlic, no spice, just very VERY salty.The ugly: they will leave your fingers and fingernails a deep red that will linger for a couple days.All that said, I would recommend them if you’re a curious addict as I said above. Even better if you can split the order with someone. I did enjoy them cut into spears and eaten one spear at a time.

I honestly really like the chimoy pickle! Especially with all of the things that the chimoy pickle kit offers. I ordered these 3 pickles, but i was a little annoyed bc two of them looked weird (I'm sure they weren't bad, but they were squishy inside).Anyways- i messaged the small business seller with my frustrations. I got an immediate response, and the situation was resolved quickly. The seller was really nice about. I'm excited now that i get to enjoy my chimoy pickles!For others who say that it's just a dill pickle with red dye.. that's not correct. Yes it does have red dye to make the pickle red. Yes, the pickle does have a chimoy taste.I'm definitely going to purchase again, supporting this small business.

Too salty for my taste
