The Mane Seven: in a life-threatening situation

Sunset: How do you eat pickles?

Rainbow Dash: What do you mean?

Sunset: I mean, there's a whole process. It's not like you can grab them from the jar with your hand, because it's cold and the juice burns if you have a cut, plus it's pretty unsanitary. And you can't use a spoon because you'll have to scoop it out, and it'll be way too difficult to grab more than three or four in the jar without taking ten minutes along with half the brine in the jar, even if it's the one with holes. 

Rainbow Dash: Yeah, that's why you use a fork. 

Sunset: Okay, sure, but what if you don't have one of the big ones clean? It's weird to use a small one. But there's always one of those smaller sharp knives clean. 

Rainbow Dash: But the straight edge doesn't really fit the cylindrical shape, and you have to make sure you don't break it; it's too much work. 

Sunset: It makes me feel like I deserve the pickles though. Like "Yeah, I did it. That's right. Good job me." It's empowering, but even after that, it's not like you can use a bowl. 

Rainbow Dash: I get that. It's not aesthetically pleasing.

Sunset: Exactly! And it looks weird if you don't entirely fill the bowl, but you also can't eat that many. My solution: use a mug. 

Rainbow Dash: nods in agreement

Twilight: That is all very interesting, BUT WE'RE TRYING NOT TO DIE RIGHT NOW! USE YOUR LIMITED ATTENTION SPANS AND FOCUS!
