  • Im with you! I LOATHE black olives, their smell makes me want to throw up. Now, on the other hand, green & kalamata olives i can eat by jar fulls, but those are never found anywhere outside a tapenade or a greek salad.
  • gorgonzola stuffed olives, garlic and wasabi stuffed olives, black olives, red olives, green olives...I LOVE olives.

    I don't but my mother LOVES them. Green and black and every shade in between. Sometimes she will eat them straight from the jar. I always pick mine off to give to her...

    I love all types of olives. Especially green or kalamata. My favorite pizza is spicy pepperoni and green olives. Like you my husband thinks it is super gross but I adore it. My favorite burger is sharp cheddar cheese, mayo, and green olives. Seeing a pattern?

    I will eat all your olives.

    It sounds like you hate olives like I hate sloths.

    Sloth-covered pizza..... *screams, tears flesh off and runs*

    Yes.:happy:

    Kalamata, black, green, ripe and freshly pickled, doesn't matter. If it's an olive, I'll eat it.

    I'll second that.

    What they said!!!

    I can't stand commercially available olives. But the olives that my former mother in law preserves are out of this world. This sweet little old lady sits on the ground outsides and pounds them with a wooden mallet and then puts them in a salty solution. When the family harvests, they save all the biggest and best olives for the mother to prepare them and the rest go to make olive oil.

    Its the Olive theory from HIMYM :D
  • Olives taste like hate and death. HATE, no LOATHE, olives. Shudder.
  • Nope. I can see your point. Olives don't sit right with me and I'm a pretty adventurous eater (I mean I will try different things). Olives...tried it, wasn't crazy about it, won't seek them out. If on a pizza, I might leave 2 or 3...thinking maybe I will help my tastebuds get used to them but I am pretty sure I am not an Olive LOVER :-)
  • That was funny!

    I-and my family members-love green olives, especially on pizza! Hate black olives, though!

    Ditto!

    I LOVE black olives. When I was a kid, my parents would play "aliens" with me using olives. We'd put the olives on the tips of our fingers and pretend we had alien hands. LOL My parents love olives and thats how they got me to like them too.

    Ooh, I LOVE olives, of any kind. My brother actually orders like 20 dollar quarts of stuffed green olives (with garlic) online all the time, they're SO good. Needless to say, he always has to end up sharing.
