	Lime Pickle Crispy Sweet Slices. This is one of the oldest pickle recipes known. They get their name from being soaked in a bath of dehydrated pickling lime to make them crispy. (No, not the lime fruit.)

	Lime Pickle (Green) One of the oldest and most special of all aged pickles. These sweet, crisp pickles are preserved the Old Fashioned way using dehydrated pickling lime. (Not lime fruit.)
