Seems like it would work particularly well with a sweet pickle, concentrating the vinegar and salt flavors is going to make them really strong, sweetness would help balance it out a bit.
I’d even consider making a custom batch with a lighter seasoning (like summer style fridge cucumbers), so it’s more like cucumber chips with vinegar and salt.
No, it’s pretty awful. I love pickles and one of the first things I did when I got a dehydrator was dry out some dill and then bread and butter chips. Made my whole house smell like vinegar and the by product was entirely, but not unpredictably, way too salty and the texture was of an old, dried out gummy bear. Inedible.
Tried to salvage it by powdering it and the seasoning was just a vinegar salt and a sweet vinegar salt. It was fun culinary experiment and now I know, but there’s a reason this type of thing isn’t popular.
It seems to be something others have tried, and at least one company is selling them. I bet they would be pretty good if you like pickles.
