People who don't like olives have weak souls. Literally spiritually frail.
Repent and take your soul to the gym.
you didn't have marmarabirlik then. the greek export olives are ass
It's okay, olives are best as an ingredient in dishes
Even tapenade has other stuff in it
While I generally agree, this is leaving out eating olives straight from the jar
You eat the hell out of those olives my friend
I will! Fun fact! Olives are cat drugs! They contain the same psychoactive chemicals as catnip! My kitty really wanted some once so I looked up if they were safe to share and found out that's why she ess going wild for em. Theyre salty and sometimes have garlic in play tho, so be careful
I want to explore with olives in cooking but my partner despises them even more than I do 😔
Maybe one day when they are not home lol
I use them a lot when I make my traditional Puerto Rican dishes
Chop a couple up, toss 'em in some rice or beans, a little brine for good measure and my friend, you got something good to eat
One of the things that only I do at work cause im the best at is making brine for our marinated olives. Literal brine of course, red wine vinegar, some oranges chopped up into it, tarragon, oregano and rosemary and roasted garlic
Sounds tasty!
I would probably eat some of those with some nice bread
Not at the price we charge for it
Mmmm Green Olives in rice, so good
can you enjoy olives without tomatoes? didn't think so. another day another native american cultural victory.
Yes, easily. Those are two great tastes that taste great together but also great separately.
you know what we do with bougie deviationists around these parts
I dont always agree with you but thank you for speaking truth
