                Will they still taste like olives? Because I’m guessing they will.

                This is like someone saying “I don’t like apples” and someone else saying, “red delicious doesn’t taste like granny smith.” Yes, but they still both taste like apples.

                  Depends on what do you mean by “taste like olives”.

                  For example, someone saying pizzas all taste like pizzas could be right if they mean that they all have the base taste of the dough. But then the overall taste is very different based on the toppings.

                  Taggiasche olives have a much stronger taste, something that’s usually made with Green ones would probably suck made with them and vice versa, that’s what I mean.

                    The same thing I mean by “tastes like apples” despite there being many varieties of apple.

          hey now, there are 3!

          brined out of their minds green ones with bell pepper jelly inside them, and then normal green and black ones.

          only the brined out of their minds ones are edible.

      Me too! I don’t know what they’re like for everyone else, but I find them intensely bitter.

      Olive oil is awesome, tho
