As long as we're on the subject of "pickled" - how about some red beet eggs. That's what folks in these parts call hard boiled eggs and beets pickled together. If you've never had any, they are delicious, even if the eggs look rather strange, being the same color as the beets.
Being a native New Englander, I never heard of them or saw any till I married into a PA Dutch area family. It took me quite a while before I got up the nerve to eat one of those red eggs, but after just one, I was addicted. YUM!!!
