I suggest adding kimchi to this rotation
Excellent suggestion. I love Kimchi, and have been making my own recently

When I worked at a fair trade store we had these Palestinian olives that were so damn good. Every morning I'd open a jar for customers to sample, eat olives till I made myself sick, then do it again the next day. Good times.
Sounds anti semetic
Were they the slightly wrinkly black ones? Mmmm
Greens and pointier browns, the greens were incredible, but I always prefer green olives.
I went to bed laughing about this image. Woke up having forgotten it, just to see it again and start my day off laughing. This is peak memery, thank you

one time I got home late from work and I had a jar of pickles and a box of cheap wine in the fridge, so i poured myself a cup and grabbed some pickles and ate that for dinner, then about an hour later I had to run to the toilet to barf out all the pink relish
Living the good life I see.
That sounded pretty good until the pink relish part. Won't try it.
I’m described by this meme and I don’t like it.
Didn’t you read the meme? There’s nothing to regret
A while back a dev invited users to test out his app in beta that gave recipe ideas based on your dietary preferences (back before everyone was doing it).
I told it I’m vegetarian, am lactose free (m’spouse is lactose intolerant), and gluten free (I’m not, but 23andMe told me to maybe cut back on gluten to avoid developing the celiac’s I’m at risk for/others in my family have).
The only food it came up with for me— for dinner— was “a handful of almonds.”
That phrase has become a running gag with friends and I whenever we’re hungry af, because I’ll never forget how hilarious of a dinner suggestion that was. It felt akin to my vegetarian experience of going to a stakehouse for my grandpa’s birthday and the waiter being understandably woefully unprepared for my dietary preferences.
OMG I would fucking destroy a handful of almonds right now.
Ironically I indeed have come around to eating them as a snack, which I never would’ve considered at the time.
(I was more about whatever high sodium crap triggered the dopamine at the convenience store nearby: chips, Chex mix, corn nuts, etc.)
Even now some recipe apps— when I look for gluten free stuff— I can tell it didn’t filter my results and instead just appended “gluten free” to ingredients that normally have gluten.
Which I get, but like… gluten free bread is gross/they haven’t mastered that at all.
gluten free bread is gross/they haven’t mastered that at all
Canyon Bakehouse has pretty decent bread, except the loaves grocery stores typically carry are woefully tiny. Like “for ants” tiny.
O’Doughs burger buns are decent, except two things:
- They don’t slice all the way through the bun when precutting, and
- They have poppy seeds on them
As for hotdog buns; well, all brand’s are shit and the people making them should feel really bad for the terrible job they’ve done. Seriously, they should feel nothing but shame.
In defense of gluten-free-bread producers... the thing that makes bread good is gluten. it's the glue that holds all the bread together, hence the name.
Gluten-free bread is just individual carbohydrates that are close enough together to be called a dough, but don't actually like each other and will peace out given the smallest chance.
I'm sure there is some chemical or product that will stick these things together enough to be bread-like, and also not trigger side effects for gluten-sensitive folks, but it probably causes cancer or something worse.
Side note: my wife likes UDI's ancient grain gluten free bread, which is stored frozen. It makes the fucking best croutons you've ever had: let it warm up, spread to go 'stale' and then chop, season and toast. heavenly. The croutons "melt", likely the lack of gluten, but still have a crunch before they get wet in your mouth.
They make those disgusting hot dog buns and can't even be bothered to split the tops. Then you open it and it immediately falls apart

Olives - the father
Olive tapenade - the son
Olive oil - the holy spirit
Weird I thought pimento was the son.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
That's Protestant heresy!
Usually these are supposed to be ironic, but I genuinely see nothing wrong with this.
It's a healthier meal than 90% of stuff from the supermarket, maybe a bit high on the salt
maybe a bit high on the salt
If they're calamatas take that bit high and make it slightly less salty then all the salt.
To be frank, I definitely did this as tome point and I'm pretty sure I actually did not regret it.

I'm drunk as fuck rn but the pub I went to had some bomb ass olives that tasted kind of like corn, and now I regret not asking what they were called.
Fuck it. Ask them. Just pick up the phone and call them right now to ask.

Obviously you have to use your fingers, because you need to stick the olives on the ends of your fingers and wiggle your fingers around first before eating the olives.
What size are the olives where you're at?
Am I not suppose to use my penis?
Not if you want it to stay extra virgin
👏
You win the internet for today.

Eat them out of a jar with your fingers?
What am I? A beast?
No. Chopsticks. I can eat far, far more olives if I preserve the integrity of my fingers.

You gotta balance that out with some croutons. Like, a whole bag of croutons.
if i had to pick something to eat 30 or 40 of then olives would be in the top 5
Pistachios?
I like this.
