As per the title, what is a food that crunches/is hard to bite, but is also savory and sour?

I couldn't find anything (except Lemons!) matching this criteria, but it's an interesting combination of tastes.

Edit: Thanks for the answers! I'm gonna try out some new foods

Hmm, the various pickled things, like pickled cucumbers, for example?

Even salt and vinegar potato chips (crisps). A good S&V flavored deep fried starch is hard to beat. or clean. Any day you use the fryer means you have to clean the whole area. Otherwise, it starts looking like the first or second act of an Alien film.

(Well) Pickled Carrots usually have a lot of crunch in them still.

Pickled okra is wonderful. That a gumbo are the only way I can eat the slimy stuff. Pickling seems to burn away the slime.
