 Aunt Bee and Clara Johnson are both jarring homemade pickles. The only difference is that Clara s are good enough to have won the blue ribbon at the fair eleven years counting while Aunt Bee s taste like they ve been floating in kerosene. The boys are too polite to tell Aunt bee the truth about her pickles and come up with a plan to switch Aunt Bee s pickles with store bought pickles. The plan backfires when Bee decides to enter her pickles in the contest.
