Not trying to judge, just trying to understand where we are in the spectrum of human behavior - when you eat a jar of pickles or olives or whatever, what do you do with the brine? Do you dump it, use it for something else, or drink it?
I know someone who saves it to drink it later. He is my husband. Honestly, even after 20 years together, I didn't realize this about him. I thought the stockpile in the door was just a collection of forgotten empty jars, and I've been dumping them as such.
Which is it:
- I'm a terrible wasteful sinner?
- He's a freak?
- Neither/Both, there's a special middle ground?
No judgement or emotional attachment here, he can have an entire shelf of the fridge for brine jars, idgaf. It just never occurred to me to that I should consider stockpiling brine.
Are you stockpiling brine? What do you do with it? "I'll drink some with breakfast tomorrow," is a perfectly acceptable answer. Just curious if yours is different.
I don't do much with pickles at all, so I have never had the problem of dealing with brine
