I love olives, except the bleu cheese stuffed ones I got at HyVee a while back.  Those were gross.

This one time my sister asked my mom where pimentos came from and my mom told my sister that they get them from the insides of olives.  Seriously, she said that.

This one store here has a bunch of different varieties one brand of olives in white wine. Some of them are really good. There are green olives stuffed with garlic, with jalapenos, or with whole almonds (maybe even other stuffed kinds), mixed large and small purple and green olives with oil and herbs, antipasto, etc. Some of them are super good. I really like making spaghetti and serving olives with the spaghetti. The spaghetti dilutes the saltiness of the olves, and also the spaghetti is flavored up by the olives.

I never used to like olives, then I started eating the low salt black canned varieties, now I like various kinds, but there are some commercial varieties that I don't care for. The jars of olives in white wine though, those are good stuff.
