Do you like olives?

Okay, dumb question. But I find that a lot of people hate olives, whereas they are just about my favorite thing ever.

Do you think there's a correlation between hating olives and being skinny? Three of my skinnier friends hate olives.

    When I weighed 285 I hated olives. About a year ago I started craving them. I can't just pop one in my mouth and chew it up but I love those purply ones with hummus and black ones chopped up in all kinds of stuff. So I am the opposite of your theory.

    I LOVE black olives! And the only "bad" thing about olives is the sodium - and as long as you keep that in check, it's fine.

    Love 'em. Green, black, oil cured, whatever. Loved 'em when I was skinny, love 'em now.

    In fact, I wouldn't like martinis so much if I didn't like olives.

    I love olives, I could eat an entire jar of black olives in one sitting. I don't think there is a correlation. It's an acquired taste!

    I will eat them sometimes, but I don't care one way or the other. I was surprised when I went to eat some that were left over from Thanksgiving and read the nutrition label. 10 calories each. :noway: Large green olives with pimentos.

    Greatly enjoy olives {of all colors and stuffings} as for skinny people and olives, typecast people from Greece.
