I’m going to hold your hand while I say this, in the gentlest tone of voice possible. QualifiedKitten, please throw out those terrifying jars of pickles.

HAHAHAHA! I know, I know, I'm getting a lot of my food from the food bank lately, so I feel extra terrible about throwing food away. I hadn't really looked closely at them until taking those pictures today, and I already tossed the second one. Since they're fermented, white sediment is normal and expected, but I just don't know if that's what I'm seeing at the top of the first jar, or if it's something else.
