I love any kind of potato salad (or even a side of french fries) as long as there is a side of plenty of cut olives (with pimentos).

My mother always had the leftover mashed potatoes for herself. She would mix them with vinegar, chopped onion and whatever vegetable was available. I always thought it was just a way to use leftovers but she really enjoyed it. No Japanese descent, she was straight German background. Apparently people across the world sometimes think alike. Thank you for the recipe. Janet US |

Why would you let a spouse stop you from eating what you like? You can always make 2 versions. |

You can always make 2 versions. Is it too much effort? Is it important to me? But then you could always put a jar of olives on the table and have at it! |

Same with Sheldon that can't eat his beloved onions since his wife hates them. He could always add some to his own plate. |

Just give them a little more time to soak up the vinegar. -- Silvar Beitel |

That is indeed one of the "people". Sometimes I add a few sliced olives to my serving, but it isn't really the same as when they're melded into the salad. Cindy Hamilton |

I've never had potatoe salad with olives already there. I always had to have green, on the side, out of a jar. Black usually comes with pizza. |

Canned potatoes are the most disgusting food on the planet... I've eaten them once in my life and I don't consider them food.
