Pickles are one of life’s sweet joys. They can be sweet, spicy, dill, sour, heck — you can even have a Kool-Aid pickle! I don’t know how or why somebody felt compelled to take a boring old fruit like cucumber and turn it into something spectacular, but I sure am glad they did.
So too is Oscar-winning actor Matthew McConaughey, who as it turns out absolutely adores pickles. Matthew loves pickles so much , in fact, that he decided to share a semi-nude NSFW picture via Instagram in order to celebrate National Pickle Day.
Pickles Are One of Life’s Sweet Joys

All the world over, people love the sweet/spicy/tangy crunch of a pickle. They’re one of the most universally beloved condiments all the world over and taste great on everything from burgers to salads and beyond. Also, if by some stroke of misfortune you’ve yet to treat yourself to a deep-fried pickle, stop everything you’re doing and remedy that immediately. Believe me, it will be the best thing you put in your mouth all day.
Pickles Are So Great That They’ve Been Given Their Own National Holiday!

That’s right, there’s such a thing as ” National Pickle Day ” in the United States. It takes place on November 14th and has been celebrated each and every year since 1949. All across the country, floods of photos and videos have begun appearing on social media platforms showcasing people from all walks of life enjoying their favorite crunchy treat. Among the masses was none other than Oscar-winning actor Matthew McConaughey.

Matthew decided to go with a simple caption for the photo and wrote “Pickled” — a tongue-in-cheek pun using the term “pickled” as a way of expressing one’s intoxication or inebriation. Judging from Matthew’s expression, the fact that he’s standing naked in front of an open fridge, and his well-documented love for bud and bourbon , it’s safe to say that Matthew is truly pickled.
Not Surprisingly, Matthew’s Love of Pickles Has Caused Quite a Stir Across Social Media

“It’s really nice seeing that a famous dude uses the same mustard and steak sauce that I do,” @greenhorngrove wrote via Instagram.
“I’m just going to reach for the soy sauce real quick ,” @mrssaxer joked.
“I feel like this is this[sic] most appropriate ‘Alright, Alright, Alright!”‘ post there ever was,” @amandamontroy said.
