Am I the only person that absolutley adores them? I was in ASDA this moring before work and I picked up a jar of them to pick at this morning for 78p.. all my colleagues are like errr, they're evil, and I cant help but think what they're missing out on.. I especially love the anchovey stuffed ones.. as long as they're green ones though, not too keen on black ones..

Anyone else here love them as much as I do lol?

Didn't used to like them at all but I'm developing a taste for them, local Deli does some very large green ones stuffed with garlic, yummy!
 
You can buy from the deli in Sainsburys green and black olives with feta cheese. I chop it all up, and spread it over a garlic bread pizza base, whack some cheese on, lovely pizza if you ask me. Mmmmm might have to make one for tea now.
 
love 'em. When we lived in cyprus we had olives trees growing in the garden and I had a go at cooking my own! it actually takes ages. I like them stuffed with almonds.
 
Wew were talking about this yesterday, my wife and I really dislike them and don't actually know anyone who does like them. Maybe we aren't Mediterranean enough, I like my steak and chips :p
 
Black Olives are amazing!
Green Olives are... ok. They're not my favourite but they're alright.

Those big massive brown ones yo get at a Greek Tavern are somewhere inbetween the Black and Green ones, on my taste buds anyway. :p
 
Olives are great, can't beleive some people don't like them, I thought everyone loved them.

I probably spend about as much money on olives as beer in a week
 
it depends on the type and what they have been stored in.

i like all olives, but my wiofe hated them, saying they were too salty.

but she loves blac and kalamta olives in oil, not brine.
 
I think its an aquired taste.. when I was in Year 6 at school, we had a Greek day and the ones I had were pretty disgusting, but a couple of years back I tried them again and developed a taste for them..

We had a Greek day in year 6 at school also. My teacher made me eat some olives, and my lord, ever since that day I have never touched one since!
