Whether you're enjoying a traditional pickled cucumber or another brine-fermented delight, there are plenty of ways to celebrate Pickle Day, but you only need one reason. If you're enjoying some pickles, then congratulations, you managed to open their infernal jar!

Of all of the jarred items we enjoy, there's just something so sinister about the pickle container. It's as if pickle manufacturers intend for customers to work for their snack, that the bitter struggle will make them taste all the sweeter. It's a much more romantic thought than the alternative, which is that most modern adults are simply weaklings.

We've selected a dozen comics that ponder the mysteries of the impossible-to-open pickle jar today. We can't promise you any answers, but we can wish you a happy Pickle Day, below:
