Philip Bruns recalls the horrors of struggling to twist his squiggly mouth into a satisfied grin as he munched through five quarts of Heinz Kosher Pickles. Howard Mann, a nightclub comic with a Kosher dill nose, once had to sit patiently while makeup men reworked his uneven toes, then ran up and down a steep hill 20 times to celebrate the joys of Ting foot deodorant.
