Dang! That should have said "like" and not "live".
We can get the almond ones pretty much anywhere here. I do like them but
can't eat almonds. I also tried the feta cheese stuffed and while I can't
eat cheese now either I liked those as well. I like most olives provided
they aren't super oily or garlicky. I have given up on getting them at
olive bars. I don't know why but they always make me very sick to my
stomach. I don't know if it's a matter of them being too old or too oily.
They do seem oilier than those that you get in jars and cans.
So now I pretty much only buy three kinds. The green stuffed with pimentos,
Kalamatta and the pitted black. I don't mind the pits but they're easier to
eat without.
