It’s the perfect addition to lunchboxes and adds a little pep to snack time.

The VanHolten Jumbo Hot Pickles are available in hot, sour and dill flavors.

They cost just $1.25 each – though you do have to buy at least a dozen at a time.

But that way you know you’ll always have one to hand.

Customers love them and they’re finding their way into lots of shopping baskets.

“I am buying my second dozen! Both my daughter and my son cannot get enough of them!” said one happy shopper.

And another wrote: “I think they get hotter the longer they’re in the pouch I love it!”

While a fan of the sour variety commented: “They are sure to satisfy pickle connoisseurs. They are not for the faint of heart.

“Best is you don’t have to refrigerate them and are easy to pack in lunches, for picnics, and camping.”

They’re available to buy in Dollar Tree stores and from the website.

They include BPure Body Lotion, which is available in three varieties: hydrating, illuminating and revitalizing.

“Love the lightweight feel. The scent is not overpowering. And it makes my skin so soft!” wrote one fan.

“These lotions are wonderful and comparable to a lotion that would cost 10x’s the amount.

“All the scents are light and wonderful and not overpowering at all,” commented another.
