I need to settle an argument I started. My argument: olives are gross.

I will die on this hill.

    I always wonder how many people don’t realize that olives aren’t supposed to taste like a tin can and have the texture of wet cardboard.

      My brother-in-law always “hated olives”, and then he came over for a party where we had set up an olive bar, which he vehemently and repeatedly declined. But we were hanging around afterward and, as you do when you’re not really thinking and there’s food hanging around, he absently ate one. He then made his way down the entire bar - I think we had like 20 different types (some were stuffed). Now he gets pouty if we have a party and there aren’t any olives, lol!
