Olives

What is it that makes Olives so nasty? The first time I ate one I almost threw up. I recently ate some more (chopped up in small pieces in a macaroni salad) and I couldn't finish it. I can eat black olives in subs (those are what the black rings are, right?) but I can't seem to eat them any other way.

Anyway, what's in them or what are they put in to make them so gross? I can't describe the taste and would like to know what it is.
 
Re: Olives

wut? I love olives man. All sorts, ones with feta cheese, the little red things, whatever floats my boat.
 
Re: Olives

ugh...well, that doesn't answer my question. What are they made of?...or what are they fermented in?
 
Re: Olives

brine is just salt water. they also add yeast and something else so the fermentation happens sooner. I don't know if it's the yeast though. I love pickles and they are put in brine, so I don't know if it's just that.
 
Re: Olives

i eat my pasta with olive oil every time.

if you've ever had spaghetti with olive oil, parmesan, basil, and garlic, you would know what it's like to get into heaven.
 
Re: Olives

Olive oil isn't a problem. I really don't think it's the olives themselves, but the stuff they're put in.
AND NO ONE IS HELPING ME FIGURE IT OUT. >(......>D
 
Re: Olives

I don't know how they're made or anything, but black olives are f*cking awesome. Sausage and olive pizza is the best. Any other kind of olive sucks though. A lot. They're so god damn bitter and disgusting. I don't know why black olives are so different from the rest.
 
Re: Olives

Agree Drakan, they're friggin disgusting. I've got a friend who's a bit of a nincompoop who had never even heard about olives before. When we got it on our pizza I jokingly said that they were grapes. "Ah, okay" he said and popped a few in his mouth.

His facial expression was priceless.

There arent many foods i dislike or refuse to eat but i just cant stand them. I actually gagged when i tried them.

Apparent;y it is the oil after all... But in combination with the rest of the olive, there may be some nasty combination?...

Anyway, I like olives. ^_^ They're tasty. Not at all disgusting. You shouldn't eat them rapidly though, it's indeed nasty. But the bitterness has a nice bite to it... O_o'
Alright, sorry. I don't know how to describe, whatsoever. I just eat it.
 
Re: Olives

Olives are manky. My sister loves them, I hate them. I'll only eat them if I don't know it's happening like if you cut them up all tiny and stick them in something like a pasta dish of some kind.

The smell, the texture, the look - yuck, And black ones look like big fat flies with their legs and wings pulled off :sick:
