I do have to add though, it depends which ones. I love green ones but I bought a different brand to the ones I usually eat once, and they were absoloutley minging, so it really depends on where they're from. I'm guessing the people who hate them might have had some of the not so nice ones.
 
Actually ive just started to get liking for these little fellas, i prefer the black ones. I dont care how they come but really nice eaten with garlic bread.
 
An acquired taste. ;)
I love 'em.
"75% disliked or strongly disliked olives as children, yet two thirds of these became complete converts in adulthood"
Also no0one prefers black ones.
"0% of survey participants preferred black olives to green olives."

I think it's possible to have too many olives ;)

Open the jar, have a couple, close the jar.

Tastebuds tell you you're a spanner for overloading them if you just scoff a jar, you lose the freshness of the taste of olives after no olives. Instead it's the taste of olives while you're still full of the aftertaste of olives.

I never used to like them, then this girl told me if you eat 10 in a row you will like them. I didn't believe it but tried it anyway, by the end of the 10 I didn't mind the taste. A couple of days later I had some more, and now I love them!

Green ones are my favourite, I like the really massive ones you get at deli counters with the stones still in...hmmmmmm
 
I can't stand them either although I would love to like them. I love food and I want to like every food but sometimes my mouth disagrees :o
