My toddler loves half sour pickles. is it ok to give him a pickle? or is it too high in sodium?

No problem: Toddlers are typically difficult to feed and often hard to please at mealtime. It is likely that many of the foods you give your toddler will be high in something or another. It is good that you're thinking about your toddler's nutrition, but I would not worry too much about high sodium content. Good kidneys compensate for this. Aim to feed in moderation and you should do fine. Give him a pickle!
