Sonic the Polish Pickle

Sonic the Polish Pickle photo

Poland isn't exactly famous for its videogame output, but it may very well have just put itself on the map with this brilliantly original character. In lieu of an actual name for the creature, I have christened him myself. His new name is Sonic the Polish Pickle, and you can find him on a jar of Ogórki today!

I have no idea whether or not the makers of Galileo Ogórki pickles have secured rights to use this mutant Sonic on their jars or not, but I do know that this is one of the greatest videogame-themed pickle labels I have ever seen. Well done, Poland. Your place in gaming history is secured. 

[Thanks Filip!]

I was going to make a joke about how sonic is around pickles because he has no dick, but I was too lazy to.

Product Endorcement FTW

I've seen this around for a while, but being it on the front page it is still p. awesome. Is it just me or is his eye bigger than Sonic? Looks creepy....

...only to find that Galileo Ogorki pickles made this character years before Sonic, and what we've really had all these years is a chili dog-loving speedy pickle

i think this has more to do with shitty internet culture than videogames...
unless you consider them both the same thing.

Did you forget that Poland brought you The Witcher, one of the best modern PC RPG's I've ever played? Funny picture, nonetheless. Ogorki FTW.

Proud to be Polish.
By the way, anyone knows what's written on this freakin' jar?
It says "our little dragon recommends crunchy-pickles".
For fuck sake. Sonic has evolved into a fucking dragon!

I HATE the new Sonic Direction! They Should just KEEP the olD Sonic and NOt this BuLLSH!T New Green gay Sonic. ANd his eyes are weird, and his socks are too big, and he has 2 many Spikes, and his finger is clearly wagging the wrong direction, and his smirk is 1 degree of kilter, and sonic he's too fat or too skinny. GOD WHY WON"T SEGA/PICKLE COMPANIES EVER LISTEN?

This is a smart blog. I mean it. Thank you for another essential article. Where else could anyone get that kind of information in such a complete way of writing? I have a presentation incoming week, and I am on the lookout for such information.
