This Christmas pickle story, with a few minor variations, can be found all over the Web, in printed ads, and inside the ornament package. It says that Germans hang a pickle-shaped glass ornament on the Christmas tree hidden away so it\u2019s difficult to find. The first child to find it on Christmas morning gets a special treat or an extra present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The starving Civil War solider theory<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe story goes that a captured Union Army soldier was starving in a prison camp. On Christmas Eve, he begged a guard for a pickle. The guard obliged, which the solider said sustained him and essentially saved his life. After returning home, the solider began the tradition of hanging a pickle on his family\u2019s tree each Christmas Eve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
