Time to settle the hate.

Black olives are FTW! All you all just wanna hate. Black Olives can make anything better.

DivaBaby19 ftd'd for black olives

11/20/2011 8:26:39 PM

olives are one of three foods I absolutely refuse to eat... the others being mushrooms and raisins.

11/20/2011 8:27:42 PM

I'm a Black Olive fangirl

Probably the only thing I love in my mouth that's black

11/20/2011 8:28:18 PM

11/20/2011 8:28:52 PM

The only way I enjoy olives of any type is in my spaghetti sauce.

11/20/2011 8:31:13 PM

I <3 black olives (green ones not so much)



I sometimes buy a can of the large whole ones and just eat.

11/20/2011 8:33:06 PM

I did the same thing in college all the time

I love olives so much. I'll go to Neomonde and get a big container to eat by themselves. It's a wonder I don't have high blood pressure.

11/20/2011 8:42:56 PM

love them lol... i ask for a bowl of them at olive garden

11/20/2011 8:43:21 PM

Green olives are much better.

11/20/2011 8:45:06 PM

I like them now, but had a mental block for a long time. When I was really little there were some olives sitting out and I thought they were grapes so I grabbed a couple and inserted them into my eager young mouth... needless to say I was very disappointed and horrified at the nasty tasting grapes.

11/20/2011 8:45:52 PM

^ ahhaha. great story.

11/20/2011 8:49:30 PM

^^ that reminds me of when my family went to a Mexican restaurant that for some reason used whole, fresh jalapenos as garnish. My uncle told my little sister it was a pickle so she chomped into one. Hated my uncle for years after that.

Black Olives>Green Olives.

Green Olives are good, but Black Olives are SOOO much more subtle.

11/20/2011 10:10:35 PM

^^Haha. Well played.

11/20/2011 10:13:02 PM

I like Kalamata the best...all olives are good though. They're an acquired taste. I didn't like them on pizzas/mexican pizzas growing up but now I'm all nom nom nom.

11/20/2011 10:16:43 PM

I like chicken nuggets.

11/20/2011 10:18:55 PM

^^ +1

^ With black olives, rite?

11/21/2011 1:55:16 AM

11/21/2011 2:01:58 AM

Black olives are fucking gross, green olives 4 lyfe.

11/21/2011 2:06:22 AM

Black olives are fucking gross, green olives 4 lyfe.

11/21/2011 6:19:13 AM

I dislike all olives.

11/21/2011 6:47:01 AM

kalamata (brown) best

11/21/2011 6:58:44 AM

11/21/2011 7:52:09 AM

Kalamata FTW!

11/21/2011 4:58:13 PM

kalamatas are awesome

canned ones suck

olive bars should be mandatory in every grocery store

11/21/2011 4:59:40 PM

bought a can tonight because of this thread

so happy

11/21/2011 10:28:20 PM

^ Jealous.

11/21/2011 10:47:28 PM

11/21/2011 11:04:00 PM

SO GOOD

11/21/2011 11:59:51 PM

The only black olives I will eat are the ones from Olive Garden. I *love* me some green olives and kalamata olives though. I frequent the olive bar at my Harris Teeter for this very reason.

11/22/2011 12:15:58 AM

I went to the olive bar at the new wholefoods in N. Raleigh a few months ago. Damn if they don't have some awesome shit!

11/22/2011 6:15:26 PM

Is it just me, but I think black and green olives all taste pretty much the same...?

11/22/2011 7:31:19 PM

Sometimes I feel like my tastes are very plebeian, but I prefer plain canned black olives to kalamata.

11/22/2011 7:32:46 PM

^^its just you

11/22/2011 7:33:44 PM

It's not that I don't like them. I think olives are delicious, but I'd describe all of them as strong and salty.

11/22/2011 7:34:54 PM

I guess that's ALMOST accurate...some just have higher degrees of strong and salty (twss)

11/22/2011 7:35:49 PM

I LOVE all olives! Just have to make sure they are fresh. (no canned or jarred olives for me )

11/22/2011 8:23:37 PM

elitist

11/22/2011 8:24:24 PM

No I'm allergic to the canned/jarred stuff

11/22/2011 9:10:40 PM

you're such an elitist that you tricked your body into reacting to anything not fresh

I see how it is

11/22/2011 9:12:48 PM

do not like

11/22/2011 9:23:29 PM

^^ I know. What a bitch!

11/22/2011 10:07:31 PM

Lolz I wish! Extreme marshmallow puff man swelling and stomach issues is no bueno

I missed canned foods. And shrimp. And wine.

11/22/2011 10:31:28 PM

Notice how black olives turn white if you let them sit for a long time?
