I was having some ham and pickles (and green onion and cream cheese) -because, well WFH and I was craving something "savory". So, I notice the pickle jar lid has an image of a cartoon bird saying "Now that's one Crunchy Pickle!" which I heard with a Groucho Marx voice. And I thought ha! Groucho but why would a bird be a mascot for pickles? and then the light bulb went off: It's a Stork. Storks deliver babies to pregnant women. And pregnant women crave pickles (and ice cream). I think I vaguely remember some advertisements where the Vlasic Stork delivers a jar of pickles. I smiled. Here's some of the ads: (one of them acknowledges that the "baby boom" is over (or it feels like it does) and not sure how politically correct some of the other ones are..)

And this then made me think of the Dumbo movie, when the stork is delivering baby to Mrs. Jumbo! Thanks for smiles, how did you know I needed them?
