Try an olive

Any kind will do.

I’ve been eating them at every BBQ and thanksgiving for as long as i rememeber, but sadly last thanksgiving (2006) I develped an alergy. I still ate them on our anual BBQ for memorial day, and my tounge swelled, and my throat started to close. tear it saddens me deeply.

Black or green, pitted or whole, they’re all good.

I tried them on a sandwich from Quizno’s. And they were pretty good. I haven’t just eaten one out of the jar or can but at least I can say I’ve tried it.

I try them whenever I can. So far they all seem fine. I will keep you posted if the situation changes.

I still haven’t tried an olive. I am a wimp!

Olives are the bees knees!! You can put them on your fingers and chase people around with them. And you can suck the pimentos out of green ones! Yummy!!!

They’re a bored little girls best friend on Thanksgiving day!

and so much variety too!
Very healthy choice of snack and very versatile in cooking. If you never tried one before, I can reccommend starting on a black (Greek) olive. Don’t worry about it if you can’t find Greek ones, usually any black olive goes down easier as a first bite than a green one. :)
