JEWISH DILL

   DARE has 1949 (in brackets), then 1965-70 for "Jewish pickle" or "Jewish dill" or "Jew pickle."
   "Jewish dill" is supposed to be here.  You strain your eyes.  It looks like all "TYPIST WANTED" stuff to me.

KOSHER PICKLE

     Chorus:
Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise)
Medium rare with mustard 'be nice (paradise)
Heaven on earth with an onion slice (paradise)
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise

I like mine with lettuce and tomato
Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes
Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer
Well good God Almighty which way do I steer for my
--Jimmy Buffett, "Cheeseburger in Paradise"



  "Kosher pickle" is not in OED.  Of course.
