texture-wise i also prefer green olives over black ones, they’re juicier and nicer to chew

sniffle oh i forgot to mention! the best green olives i’ve ever had (and buy every week if i can’t find the really big jars of it) are from a brand called Benino. I get the pitted and stuffed one. if you have them where you are i seriously recommend!

jilly unfortunately I don’t have them here, though you made me think of how funny it is that out of all food (aside from snacks), olives are really the only ones where I have brand loyalties for

Bitter and inedible until steeped in salty brine; loved or hated; has healthy fats; strange and you don’t really think about the fact that it’s a fruit

Aesthetically and for their richness of flavour. Feels more sophisticated and deeper than many common plums to my part of the world, like yellow or Doris. Their green streaks are a beautiful complement to deep purples and blood reds - their insides are also lovely and bloody often. Tart little skins, they seem to remain more taut and less watery than many and tend to have a cute and satisfying nub at the end; heart shaped and juicy. :)
