I can eat olives all day!

I'm about to eat a whole jar of olives before I goto sleep. Do these have any nutritional value? I hardly eat before I goto bed but I ... cant ... help... it. I know its bad.
 
I love olives too. But I don't know about downing a jar. Half of it maybe, if I'm starving.

From what I heard they're fatenning though. And I know that olive oil is good for your stomach lining, but I don't know it this feature carries over to plain olives.

Since you live in California, you should visit a Whole Foods market if you have a chance. They have an olive salad bar with near 30 different olive types. They're quite expensive, but also a connoisseur's paradise.
 

What kind of olives are these?

I really like olives, but I'm not sure about a whole can... unless they're big, scrumptious black olives... mmm..... 😛

😀

 
Strange ... I only really can tolerate the "welfare" olives that they put on Subway subs. I generally cannot handle real olives. Too ... olivey or something like that.
 
List of items I can eat by the truckload and never tire of them.

Green Olives
Rice Krispy Treats
Pistachio Nuts
My deluxe home made trail mix (equal parts) raisins,unsalted peanuts,plain M&Ms
Honey Cured Ham
Roasted Peanuts
Captain Crunch w/ Crunchberries
Chocolate covered raisins

Yum Yum
 
Ok I'm not sure on this, but be careful with that.....there are some foods that contain certain things that you don't wanna get in huge doses. Eggs are an example, they contain tons of proteine I think, and it's not too good to eat several of them every day.
 
I personally don't like olives, but my roommate's loves them. It's pratically all he eats, and he leave the damn glass jars with the juices all over the apt. Gross!

You, and Popeye.

Did you know that green olives and black olives come from the same tree?
