Please tell me if you remember anything like this! Mine did, and I can't find other references to this. The texture, sweet-sourness, and appearance of the pickles is great, but that funky smell and taste is distracting. Did I do something wrong? Thanks!

However, reading through this recipe makes me feel inspired. Just bought a good heavy melon, and it's a hot humid day.... looks like pickling weather to me!. Thanks for the inspiration.
