3.75 out of 5
With Mr. Crisp we find ourselves with another delightful small batch chef inspired pickle. In comparison to other Spicy pickles this comes in at the lower end of the spice spectrum maybe a 1 out of 5 for spice. But don’t let that cool you down, the garlic on the other hand is way up there. Not quite as garlicky as what Grillo is throwing down but it’s in the ballpark. You’ll find these are hand cut but you’ll see pretty consistent chip sizes, all of which come with a crunch that can only be described as, well, crunchy… maybe very crunchy. Definitely not the most crunchy. Yeah, let’s go with very crunchy. You’ll find some very minimal dill weeds and a lot of chopped up garlic floating around in the jar if that appeals to you. I’d say this is a well rounded pickle, and if you are into pickles on burgers I feel like this pickle would suite you well. Also Mr. Crisp was the asshole in charge of Saint Catherine high school in Sister Act 2. Nobody really liked him but thank god Sister Mary Clarence showed up and took that crazy group of delinquent students to the 1994 all state music competition and took home the gold. If she can save the day surely Mr. Crisp deserves another shot, so needless to say, I’d buy them again thanks to Sister Mary Clarence and her joyful joyful pickles.
