I haven't used it yet, but I bought an olive/cherry pitter. I've used all
the tricks to get the pits out easily, but 'it's the pits.'

I haven't made the recipe recently that calls for a bunch of them pitted
that I bought this gadget for. I think the pitted ones hold their flavor.
I buy a brand that is pretty good that has no pits "Trade Joe's Pitted."
