A Pickle of an Idea
This is one business idea you’re going to have to see to believe. In Mississippi, entrepreneurs are stirring up batches of Kool-Aid dills to sell at their local markets. Yes, Kool-Aid pickles.
According to a teacher in the area, it’s easy to make a gallon of the popular concoction. Simply cut the pickles in half, make double-strength Kool-Aid, add a pound of sugar, shake it and let it sit in the fridge for a week. “This whole Kool-Aid pickle thing is going so good, you wonder why somebody hasn’t put a patent on them,” said teacher Billie Williams.
The main consumers of this interesting treat are, not surprisingly, youngsters, who shell out anywhere between 50 cents to $1 for their cherry or tropical-flavored treat.
