    I can't stand black olives, but I love green olives. Of course, my 4 and 6 year old love black olives and would love that pizza! They will sit and just eat black olives (Yuck!)

    I have a weird texture aversion and I don't like olives at all (or tomatoes, or eggs, or mushrooms...) but my fiance loves olives.

    I will only eat black if they are on a pizza, but I *LOVE* green!

    I love olives and didn't realize they were a commonly disliked thing! However, I don't think they're appropriate on pizza because they're salty and the pizza is already salty enough (same reason I don't like anchovies on pizza).

    Yum!! Not particularly fond of the pickled, stuffed green variety, but I will eat them. Black olives are my favorite. I like to put one on each finger and pretend I am the olive monster.














    What?

    Love them. One of my favorite things to snack on. And I order extra olives on my pizza. Would love to eat that deep dish!

    I LOVE OLIVES.
    Seriously, in my college's cafeteria, I could eat a whole bowl of olives.

    Most people I know love olives. I don't like them at all. If they are in or on a food I will not eat it. I can't even stand the leftover flavor that it leaves. Or the smell.:noway: That being said, I feel like *I* am the one that is the minority by not liking them.

    No. They are the devil's food.

    I worked at Pizza Hut when I was a teenager and the bin of black olives always looked like a bin of black beetles to me. Shiny and interesting, but not something to eat!

    edit: Incidentally, I was a cook, and orders with black olives were fairly rare. Probably the least used item on the line aside from banana peppers, as I recall.

    I love olives (especially pickled in alcohol). I don't like frozen pizza or pre-packaged meals. So not worth the calories.

    I'm obsessed with black olives. The people at subway know my order immediately when they see me because it's "weird". I get no dressing at all, just chicken, tomatoes, spinach and extra extra extra black olives. When they finish, I ask them to add more.

    I eat them out of the can pretty often as well. I'm the same way with mushrooms.

    Adore them. Can't think of anyone in my family that doesn't.
