And grape? Jelly? whole grapes? Everyone here
thinks I'm weird because I like cheese and jelly (fruit jelly like
grape, or jam) sandwiches. Pickle is usually used in meat sandwiches
like hamburgers.

I think she means mustard and similar pickles (do you have those in North America?). Ham-and-pickle means mustard pickles to me.

I'm not familiar with mustard pickles, but I think a ham and dill pickle sandwich would be fairly common.

Over here, pickle can mean chopped up vegetables which have been pickled - more like relish then whole pickles. (Except you probably think of something completely different when I say 'relish'.) It was that type of pickle I was thinking of.


We do have pickled relishes here (artichoke relish, onion relish, corn
relish, etc.), but if you told me you wanted pickle on a sandwich, I'd
think of sliced pickles, usually some type of cucumber pickle.
