Trying Red Hot Cinnamon Pickles for the first time!

Today we are trying out a gift from Dean Family Acres, Cinnamon Red Hot Pickles. Up until Matt gave me these, I have never heard of them before. His wife makes them and he has wanted me to try these. They are very unique and interesting and I am all about trying new things, especially if they are unique and interesting haha.
