Make margaritas and empanadas with the Spanish olives.
Make nachos with canned black olives, jalapeños and maybe add the artichoke hearts… maybe.
Make chicken piccata with the capers. Yummm! I love capers! 🥰
Snack on cornichons; put sliced pickles in a sandwich (DIY chik-fil-a sandwich)
Put sauerkraut over kielbasa.
The sun-dried tomatoes and I do not get along but thanks for asking. Please throw them out.
I like big-ass garlic stuffed green olives.
A nice artichoke heart in oil hits a spot nothing else does, but the versatility of the black olive is hard to beat.
Sundrieds can also be really good, but you have to know how to use them.
Jarred red peppers are underrated as a replacement in basically any other place you'd put a red pepper.
Dry, salty, black olives. Best paired with a light beer and a blazing-hot summer day.
Pickled jalapenos are just fantastic. Hot, sour, flavorful, and just versatile at 'waking up' all kinds of food.
Capers are great on all kinds of savory dishes where you want a little salt and sourness, but other pickles would just be overkill.
Canned black olives belong on pizza, and the occasional loaded nacho plate. They're kind of awful in other applications.
As for the classic dill pickle, ever had one in Dr. Pepper?
Olives with beer taste just like toast! Fosters is the best for testing this theory.

Castelventrano olives, pickled okra
i had olives stuffed with lemon rind recently and was hooked. Also enjoy olives stuffed with jalapeños.
I’ve only had it once but theres also pickled watermelon rind
162... Meh on the rest
I love katamala olives and pickles. Black olives are fine if I can't get katamala.
Pickled beets. They're good until you forget you ate them
Ah yes, that brief moment of cold panic where you sincerely contemplate being deathly ill but still able to do something about it... right before your memory kicks in.
Red pee? Red poop? Oh I ate beets.
I love beets. And the ensuing staring into a toilet wondering if I should go see a doctor
Write "you ate beets" to a post-it and stick it on the mirror
Artichoke hearts. Straight from the jar with a fork. Yum.
Pimento olives, chopped fine and mashed into cream cheese, spread on pumpernickel (bread, bagel, etc).
Capers can fuck off entirely.
I was with you until you disparaged against capers
Same. Capers are amazing. Still upvoted them though haha
Lol same
You both can have all of my capers, forever.
Fair deal
2, 6 and 8 is fine.
Olives and capers can fuck right off!
You just made a list of many of the things I truly hate, food wise, lol. I guess sun-dried tomatoes are okay? 😅
I'm the exact opposite. Sun-dried tomatoes taste stale and plasticky to me. Everything else on the list is fantastico. Where would we be without capers in tartare sauce, or black olives on pizza?
Where would we be without black olives on pizza
We'd have pizza people actually wanted to eat!
Don't get me wrong, if you want to keep more pizza for yourself, then olives are a great deterrent and that's a legit strategy.
If you want to do a real case study, get only two pizzas and put olives on one, pineapple on the other, and just watch.
I feel like I could save this picture and show it to people next time they ask what foods I can't stand.
Marinated sun-dried tomatoes & garlic. I could eat that forever.
Every one is an s tier food. I fucking love olives and pickles.
Chupadedos olives
Green olives. Preferably stuffed with garlic.
Pickles are my favorite, especially dill spears. I've also enjoyed capers on top of grilled salmon with (I think) a beurre blanc sauce. Kalamata olives on pizza is really good too.
I casually snack on cornichons straight out of the jar, or else with ham and camembert on a French baguette. In that case I'll slice them lengthwise just so they don't roll off.
Pickles are definitely my favorite on that list. My favorite is probably zesty bread and butter, but I also love dill. Black olives are alright. Most pickled veg are pretty good. Pickled jalapenos are good, but I much prefer fresh ones.
I think pickled onions count and should be here so I would say that but I also enjoy capers in the right setting.
Salt-fermented pickles. Mmmmm.
But really, I love all this stuff.
Round here we call cornichons “sweet gherkins” and they’re pretty good
Also: At one point you put black olives on your fingertips for the last time and you didn’t know it.
I make my own kimchi, sauerkraut, and various Chinese fermented vegetables.
I make what I call a "dirty margarita." Jalapeño stuffed olives are a must.
In a salad, kalamata or dried black olives.
Everything on this list is my favorite, basically
Canned black olives are the only olives I really enjoy, but I haven't had a green olive since I was a kid and now I am not sure if the olive was gross or if it was just the pimento I hated.
But dill pickles (gherkins) are a top tier snack and condiment.
The pimento doesn't really have all that much flavor, espec next to the olive. You should definitely try some green olives again, it is one of this things that it's not uncommon to dislike as a child and later acquire a taste for.
jfc people!
Castelvetrano olives > everything on that list
All have their place, but canned black olives tap into childhood nostalgia. Putting an olive on each finger and eating them one at a time.
Lots of caper haters in the world. Sad!
I like all of these except capers. I eat olives and pickles regularly.
Pickled asparagus and pepperoncinis.
Can’t forget the pickled okra!
