We have at least 2 reports now of pickle use giving hallucinations (error messages) upon which the pickle remained.  I isolated one such pickle passed back to me and it functioned normally.

Ergo, it is not the pickle but the circumstances or environment of its use.

Anyone that can provide solid information leading to a solution of this issue will receive a reward - possibly a fresh pickle.

Here's my explanation:

Some pickles are hallucinogenic. They create a time loop and you get back to the moment when you decided to eat that pickle. You feel no effect because you're a pickle junkie, so you gained immunity.

This effect is more consistent when the pickle is tagged as Necrovion.

 

I just consumed one of that "No Homeland" Pickle (fresh, without burger), and nothing strange happened. I'm not a pickle fan myself, but maybe they're the ones who feel the hallucinations because they didn't wash 'em first.

I think the actual issue is that "reloading" the entire page will try and "re-use" the item, causing errors to appear.

So not actually related to pickles, but pickles (among other things) show the error.

So this happened one time when I tried to use a pickle, but I couldn't reproduce it.  It worked normally after that, even when not refreshing inventory....

Currently I can get this error to happen if and only if I use a second pickle after using a first and not refreshing the inventory.
