Do you eat them?
I do, and usually have 3 - 5 per day. The green ones. I like to nibble on them with baby carrots. I wonder if this is another version of the carrot salad because the olives provide vinegar, salt, fat. I don't mix or shred, just eat a carrot, eat an olive, etc.
Besides enjoying the taste and texture, I find olives make my stomach feel good. When I was going through terrible flu-like illnesses in 2012 (due to excess estrogen/gallbladder issues...) olives were something that settled my stomach and seemed to perk me up.
I don't use olive oil since coming to RP.
I was just wondering what others think about olives on the RP forum.
