My Mom used to make pickled peaches, and my God they were good! I occasionally buy some at the store, they are good, but not as good as my Mother's. I bought some at a Rural King store, they were an Amish brand, without the jr. chemistry set ingredients most brands like to dump in, and they were pretty good. Rural King is like a combination of a farm store, and Wally world. They sell live chicks, animal feed, people food, clothes, tools, and farm, and ranch stuff. Neat store. Pickled apples sound great. My favorite apple has always been the McIntosh. I imagine the Empire would be good that way also. Thanks.
