Tapenade has more than just the oil and is doable if you don’t like olives (I don’t like them). But it also feels like it’s sth like coriander seeds and oysters (I do like both these btw): there’s a point where you can say that you just don’t like ‘m, simple as.
You start with buying olives that don’t suck
I’ll never understand not liking olives, and I think it should be outlawed.
Try the black ones, assuming you dislike their sharpness, black ones have a much subtler taste (more like olive oil).
As a fellow Higher European – keep on not eating them.
Ngl Olives are so good this is a you problem Phlegmboy
Just swallow. Like your dad told you.
At a store which sells them, likely.
I think you should find a good psychologist to assess this disorder, instead of asking random people on Reddit.
Step 1: Take olives
Step 2; Make olive oil
Step 3: Throw olive oil out
Step 4: Eat butter
I don’t know if the olives i tried were just bad, but olives are disgusting..
Grow up. It’s natural that most kids dont like bitter strong taste
I used to hate olives because I thought they were supposed to be “delicious” in themselves. Some can be, but often that’s really not the point. They’re often supposed to be bitter and tart and a little annoying to the mouth. They often are meant to accentuate the smoothness and mellowness of other things.
Start with white grapes. Pretend they are olives. Stick with white grapes
i have no clue how olive oil can be so nice (aside from the soap smell when heated) yet olive so disgusting, im pretty sure olive oil arent from olives or from the seeds, thete is no way its the same ingrédient
Buy some good olives, drag yourself through one jar of them, and then you will like olives for the rest of your life
Most of the olives you buy over there are completely shit.
Search for a jar of olives that say “chupadedos”. That’s your starting point. It is physically, chemically, physiologically etc. etc. impossible to dislike them.
Olives are goated wtf
Grab a container, put mixed olives, olive oil, oregano and garlic. Stir the container, let it sit for a few hours and now you have deliciously seasoned olives to eat as a starter or snack. Also I didn’t enjoy olives when I was a kid, but throughout life you taste different things and your taste pallets evolve to let you have more tolerance for “weirder” tasting foods. It’s like cigarettes, tastes weird at first, and then you learn to like it. Like one of my nations greatest poets once said for a coca cola slogan “primeiro estranha-se, depois entranha-se”.
No barbarian deserve my olives
You eat them straight from the tree, just like cherries. But unlike cherries you are supposed to eat the pit.
shhhh
Eat green olives that aren’t made out of plastic
Bruh quick PSA I once visited Spain and I saw the olive groves there which was super exciting because I had never seen fresh olives before. But then I picked one and I ate it and that was one of the most fowel experiences of my life.
I love olives.
Olives are like wine, it’s personal, very personal. I for once don’t like Greek olives, I ate best of them in Greece and still nope. I do love and adore proper Sicilian green ones (noccelara) and some Spanish black
Start with Kalamata Olives, then work out from there.
Put them in your mouth, chew on them and then swallow them.
We should bring the death penalty back for people that don’t like olives. How are you not going to love them?
For anyone starting out with olives combining it with a good bread and butter is a great way to get into the taste. Cutting it up and baking it into a bread, or lightly spreading an olive tapanada onto a good bread… amazing 🫒🫒
I’m the black sheep of my family cause despite being Sicilian I don’t eat olives nor aubergines. Olive oil? Yes, I can bathe in it, olives? Not a chance I’ll eat them.
You buy good olives and pair them with beer or wine and invite someone you like over on a nice sunny day, sit outside to enjoy the company, conversation, drinks and olives. If you still hate them after having them in this manner you are not fit for life, sorry.
Ah olives! When you want that vague taste of stale seawater. ~👌
“Cracks knuckles”
Where do we start, you prefer salt cured, oil cured, some kind of brined, filled, maybe olive paste or sliced olives, perhaps juiced or fresh, take your pick.
Honey is not made for donkey’s palate.
Learning to like olives is a bit like learning to love life: it’s very sad you are not loving them already like a healthy, well-adjusted person, but at that point it’s better to learn than not to…
Disgusting? I’ve never felt more offended in my entire life
1: Go to lidl if you have it in your country or a similar store.
2: Wait for a greek or italian week or something like that.
3:Buy green ones with cheese and some spices.
4: profit
You should try them raw.
I hated olives. Disgusting. But then i ate a good quality olive. Worlds apart in taste. I still dont like them, but the difference is huge.
Start from the big green ones without a pit. It’s the training wheels
I hated olives for a good part of my life. Even just the smell of them would turn my stomache.
Then one day, I ate a Muffuletta sandwich. After that, I was a convert and will casually eat olives from the jar regularly.
Forget canned olives, try trying olives with homemade dressings. I don’t know if in the barbarity that is non-Mediterranean Europe they are popular, but in Spain it is common with a thousand dressings. Or make them yourself. Caustic soda, water and anything that comes out of the ground.
