I've never been a big fan of pickles, but these ones are really good. The lemon gives them a really nice flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pickles turned out soft and mushy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These pickles are a bit too sour for my taste. I think I'll try using less lemon next time.
