It all began when store owner Deanna Farrar was 17-years-old. She accepted a dare to eat a pickle on her scoop of strawberry ice cream, which was drizzled with chocolate sauce. Surprisingly, she loved it.

32 years later she decided to put it on the menu. And it's been a huge hit.

"It was just something fun. It looked pretty. I took a picture of it and it got shared and we thought, 'Oh it will go away.' It didn't go away," said Farrar.
