Green Olives or Black Olives ?

[AOA]

Black, especially on pizza!!!

I like olives in every form or fashion I've encountered them... but kalamatas are the best, I think.

Sadly, there was no poll option for them.

Yes, kalamatas are great.

Come to think of it - it's not too late to order pizza.

I hate 'em both, but if I had to choose it would be green olives. I make a Japanese fried rice that isn't the same without them. You can't really taste the olives in it specifically but they add a special something that's not the same without them.

...Olives?

They're nature's dingleberries.

I thought dingleberries were nature's dingleberries.

Hmmm.

I've never had a kalamata olive.

I like em both. I voted black olives because that's what I always preferred before I became an adult and could buy my own and OD'ed on them.

Yes! Black is ahead by one.

I can't choose. on pizza definitely black olives but I use green olives in several of my Spanish dishes. I also eat green olives with wasa crackers as a snack with my new eating thing.

Black olives are delicious. Green olives are disgusting, though I don't mind a mix of them in a muffaletta.

 

[Fiver]

Muffalettas. Olive salad. yummmmmm

 

[kuranes]

What else goes into a Muffaletta ?

* Come on, green ! Blacks are getting ahead ! *

Olives on pizza is just generally a bad idea. Green olives, even more.

that's true, if by bad you mean great.

 

[CrystalViolet]

Green ones are the best....although I don't mind black ones. Kalamata olives are a treat. I found these green olives stuffed with parmesan, they go fanatasic in greek salad. Yum.

 

[LucrativeSid]

I like black ones more, but green ones are good, too! Whenever they are around, I eat them all up. Something funny I've just realized, though, is that I've never actually bought olives for myself in my entire life. NEW GOAL!

 

[FDG]

It's a good idea only to put a single olive as decoration, in the middle of the pizza. Otherwise, the tastes are not what I'd consider as compatible. Part of it is a matter of taste, but I won't concede that it's all taste

 

[kuranes]

I also enjoy the pimentos that the greens are normally stuffed with.

Come on greens ! We're falling behind !

I am an olive fanatic. I have a fridge loaded with all variety of olives. I think I'll go get one now!
