pickle forks

Brine jar tools

Pickle forks are small, narrow utensils with two or three tines, designed for retrieving pickles and other items from jars: Pass me the pickle fork—I can't reach the olives.

The narrow profile fits into jar openings that regular forks cannot.

In aviation, pickle forks are structural components connecting an aircraft's fuselage to its wings.
