I'm feeling a little silly today, and I can't think of a better toy to match my mood than the Pickle-Pult ($4.95 at Archie McPhee). It is just what it sounds like: A device for catapulting pickles.
As a parent, you may be familiar with catapulting food, but the pickles that fit into the handy pickle-pult are, thankfully, the non-spoiling kind. It's win-win for everyone. Kids indulge in their food-tossing fantasies and adults get to watch harmless plastic pickles shoot across the room. Naturally, you'll want to purchase the two-pack of terrified pickles ($5.95) to ensure the enjoyment lasts a full five minutes.
And while it's been name-checked before on Droolicious before, I don't want to miss this opportunity to point out the yodeling pickle, which is worth every penny of its $12.95 price tag.
