Olives?

[Guy Incognito]

i love them but the wife makes me put them in solitary confiment in the fridge cos she hates them that much she doesnt want any olive vibe contaminating the rest of the stuff.

what say you?

[Randetica]

i like them in all colors, shapes and languages

[HEIRESS]

love em all.

I make a mean green olive pasta sauce.

olive pesto is rad too.

I had a pizza with black/green olives, genoa salami, and goat cheese last night. thanks panago!

[hitmonlee]

i LOVE olives
but really only straight from the jar, or in salads. do not like hot/cooked olives.

used to open the fridge, get an olive from one jar, piece of marinated feta from another, and eat together (y)

green stuffed olives are my favourite.

[jabumbo]

olives are quite delicious. i usually try and shove them down someones throat when i find out that they don't like them


but i can understand the confinement thing, because they do contaminate everything

pizza: light sauce, light cheese add feta, green olives, and red pementos....(y)

Real ones in Greece taste so different than the jarred variety. They're really bitter but tasty at the same time.

I love all types of Olives, Pimento stuffed, mozzarella stuffed, black, brown, green...all of them.

I choose black because they define a pizza for me! (y)

olive spread. olive spread and crackers is a full meal to me

like guiness from ireland!

its the face that people who dont like them make, its the same face whenever the subject comes up like you have just broken into their house on christmas day and pissed on their kids.

I love olives. Especially green olives stuffed with jalapenos or garlic. But I don't discriminate, red and black olives are yummy as well. Whole Foods has an excellent mix of green and greek/red olives spiced with garlic and red pepper flakes in olive oil that are my favorite.

I dispise raw olives but they make such delicious oil.

just thought i'd share that i was making some pasta and cheese and i chucked some olives on, i dropped one on the kitchen floor. So i shouted me dog over who is always looking for scraps like that, she sussed it out for about 10 seconds before deciding it wasnt for her. And i have seen this dog eat things a lot more disgusting.

[MC Moot]

^ yeah,but the dog is after all British...so...unless that olive was stuffed with chutney,how's she to know?...:D

i only like black olive varieties. i especially love kalamata olives though. they make my heart sing. ive even had extra virgin kalamata olive oil. it was amazing.

i love olive oil too.
