Thou art more witty than I
:meh:
just got these in the mail a few days ago. way way way too saltyā¦
For reference, grocery store olives are around $5 a pound, though thatās without pits.
Also for reference, I hate the flavor of (grocery store) olives due to some obnoxious vinegar flavor in there (which is odd, since they donāt add vinegar.) But soak them in 3-4 changes of clean water, drain, and add a little salt and hot sauce, and I can put down a large jar in just a few sittings.
The thing looks like a garbage disposal unit.
Iām surprised that no one else gave this comment an āAwesome!ā
Great gift for my wifeā¦coupled with the wine from the other day, sheāll be enjoying what I wish I only could!
Ahā¦stuck in Afghanistan
good on ya, man!
Keep your head down, recce can be dicey, right?
Picture says 2 kg. Text says 1.8 kg. Who you gonna believe?
You wonāt, itās normal. Thatās why there is that big plastic grate thing on top, to keep the olives under it/help you access them around it.
You donāt have to worry too much about mold growing in a salt solution, as salt severely limits mold growth.
The goverment
Not impressed with this price considering I can get them on amazon close to the sameā¦just sayinā¦come on āwoot-offāā¦do better for me here
Nix thatā¦the ones I get are just the kalamataā¦not mixedā¦but still, I prefer those
I have an olive bar at my local Italian Market, where I can pick the olives I want without pits and they cost $4.99 a pound and no shipping. And I donāt have to purchase this amount at once. So NO DEAL for me!
Link? The only Mani Kalamatas that I can find on Amazon are $22.99 PLUS $13.49 for shipping. Thatās a considerable bit more money than these mixed. If you have a better deal, donāt be holding out! Share the wealth.
Boo - wake up to see flashing lights and olives. Then figure out I missed the SH magnum. Angry like Kanye!
Of the woots Iāve wooted, this is the one I wish I could un-woot.
These just came in the mail a few days ago, almost all of them are mushy, almost the texture of a black oil cured olive. Maybe they were exposed to too much heat along the way, curious to know what experience others have had. Anyway, for now Iāll stick with the local olive bars.
Only 2 kg? Hardly a snack. Gotta sign up for monthly delivery of the 40 pounder.
Adequate supply of olives
Bought these last Spring, put them out at a party and everyone loved them!!!
