How often do you eat olives?

I love olives, but I probably only eat them a few times per month. I would love to eat them more and get cravings for them probably a few times a week, but either I don't have the type I'm in the mod for, we're "out of stock," or I eat something else. It all depends. How about you? How much/often do you crave olives, and how often do you eat them each week or month? Would you like to eat them more?

I can definitely say 5 days a week. I'm a bartender and I work 5 days a week so I snack on them while working. We have blue cheese stuffed and regular green olives. Of course, they are better in a martini but we cannot drink at work!

I have never actually bought any either sense i started living on my own i do know how they taste and all but they just aren't my thing for sure.. so to answer your quiestion nope i wouldn't eat them at all anytime of the month..

Hello Bethany! I love olives (black olives though)and I love them with my salad. As a matter of fact Beth, I can eat them right out of the can. The ones I eat have such a nice mellow flavor to them. When I forget my olives, I feel my salad isn't complete. Take care Bethany and God Bless!

I love many different types, but black olives, green olives, and calamata are three of my absolute faves! I also love olive oil and garlic.

I eat them about once a week, if not more. I use them in a lot of my pasta dishes and in antipasto. I also add them to salads and much them right out of the jar! I also use olive oil in most of my cooking. We go to our local warehouse store (BJs, Sam's, CostCo type thing) and buy them in larger packs so we always have them on hand.

I do not eat olives often, but I did make a pasta salad this week and added black sliced olives to it. I had a small cup full left over. My husband wanted spaghetti and clam sauce for dinner, when he saw the olives he said add them to his dish.. Oh, gee, olives and clam sauce??? He ate it and said it was good.
