I love olives

[tweakmm]

But seriously, this is not a parody thread.

I was at my fridge a few moments ago, hungry and looking for a snack when I spied a jar of olives and dug in. It then occured to me that probably not many people eat olives straight up.
Am I the only one who does this?
Don't even get me started about the martini. Alcohol and olives are like match made in heaven.

 

[JDrake]

Yes it is.

 

[djheater]

Round and firm and salty....

Capers FTW

No it's not.

I swear to god I'm looking at the remaining olives that I got from my fridge right now.
That thread was a thinly veiled cover of the OPs predilection towards penis. This thread is a legitimate thread about my love of olives.

(I will not deny that I was inspired by the pickle thread however)

Oh yeah, lots of people eat olives straight up, they're called Italians and Greeks.
EDIT: And Spaniards. Hell, just about any warm European country.

They're too for me to eat straight up, but i do like them.

Quoting myself:
The only thing better than an olive is one that's been soaking in gin.

I eat olives all the time. The giant sevillano olives from Trader Joes are great. I also like black olives and kalamata olives. I make an awesome tapenade.

I don't eat olives any other way than by themselves.

 

[ThePresence]

Agreed.

Oh, and Text.

They're delicious. When I went to Spain to visit a friend all my meals came with bread and olives with a side of olive oil. They were very simple yet delicious meals.

SOmetimes in college I'd hit up the olive bar at Wegman's and sit down with olives, cheese, crusty bread and a nice bottle of chianti and just do that for dinner. YUM!

I like eating plain, raw, black olives :shocked:

 

[LookingGlass]

Manzanilla olives for me.

Are you kidding? Go out and make some Greek friends. We love our olives. Olives, feta cheese, and some good bread = best food EVER.

olives are just what the doctor ordered.

a nice crisp dill spear isnt bad either though

 

[YetioDoom]

I don't like olives.

I do like pickles.

 

[D1gger]

Kalamata olives FTW. I can eat a jar of them at one sitting.

 

[Cobalt]

This thread made me hungry. On my plate now - kalamata olives, feta cheese, and a nice chunk of fresh bread.

 

[imported_malcontent]

Green olives stuffed with an almond.. That's my favorite.

Anyone who likes olives deserves to have their tounge cut out.

Olives are the most disgusting food ever.

I also used to think so, then I matured and my tastes did too.

You might like olives yet Gatsby!

 

[BooGiMaN]

an interesting fact about olives is that stuffed olives still have to all be done by hand...they havent been able to invent a machine that can stuff olives....
