I have always liked chicken gizzards, but fried along with the rest of the chicken.
Never been a big fan of gizzards but will eat them, especially when accompanied by those big yummy noodles.

Never seen them advertised pickled. Might be worth a try if I do.

Pickled gizzards are probably something you will find on the bar of a beer joint along with pickled, boiled eggs and pickled pigs feet...at least in the South.
OOH People get real! (HEEHEE)
I worked at a top flight restaurant while going to college. Chef made an amazing "chop suey" with chicken innards (hearts, gizzards, livers)....only for the help...it was never on the menu. He fed us well.
I take them (when my wife lets me), boil them for about an hour or two, then dredge them in seasoned flour and pan fry them. Crisp on the outside and soft inside. I like hearts too but don't eat the livers anymore as I have a blood disorder (hemochromatosis- the opposite of anemia). My other comfort food is chicken & dumplings...

Have tried them all except the gizzards. Noticed a number of recipes and a video on how to pickle them using a Google search. Might give that a try?

Just curious. Have you ever tried them or like my wife very reluctant to try new foods if she gets a preconceived idea about it? One time I made Gizzards and noodles but cut them up in very small pieces so you really couldn't tell what they were. My guests raved about the dish and after I told them what it was a couple of them admitted they wouldn't have tried it had they knew what it was beforehand but said they would now make for themselves. I always say try it and if you don't like it don't eat it. Like shark fin soup I was served in Hong Kong in 1965. Looked like snot in a bowl but actually delicious.
