Love, love, love olives! Any kind, anywhere, in anything. What I like about them is their fruitiness (they are considered a fruit), saltiness, meatiness, and they hold up well in cooking. One of my favorite things to do is visit my local Wegman's every week, yes I do, just to get a container of this olive mix that they have on their olive bar. It's a mix of all types of olives, cubed feta cheese and a dressing that they marinated them in. When I get them home I add English cucumber and sliced grape tomatoes. I will snack on this all day long, it's my new favorite salad and I can not get enough of it, I am sad to say I am addicted! Olives also contain a good amount of vitamin E, calcium, copper, iron, manganese and zinc, so they are good for you. They also have mono-unsaturated fat acids - healthy fat.
