Pickle 0 calorie question?

I have noticed just now as I was eating a pickle from the jar, that it says it is 0 calories. Now I kinda looked into it and it was a bit inconclusive. I wondered though, would It be possible to actually die from eating nothing but pickles and drinking nothing but water? Your body needs calories to function properly. Calories basically power your body. So, since eating pickles give you no calories, is it possible to die from starvation-type reasons? When you starve, your lacking calories, among the other nutrients. Pickles provide little nutrients, and no calories. So even if you were gorging yourself on pickle jars, wouldn't your body eventually shut down and die?
