Bt there are only small amounts of each, so would any of them count as a “portion”? Better have a couple more to be on the safe side.

I am somewhat disturbed.

But in other news, I am slightly bothered by this casual acceptance of olives in a ginnan bitter lemon. It’s just… wrong.

I ate olives last weekend for the first time in about sixty years.

They were adequately salty.

Give me a chance! These were olives. They were black, and wrinkly; I left the plump ones which looked like white grapes for someone else. But what sort they were, goodness, how would I know?

I don’t think these were either. They were just there, with bread, while we waited for the main food at a Turkish restaurant.

(A very pleasant place.)

A recent and very delightful discovery for me. Aldi do them in a glorious red wine brine. I wonder how they’d work in a Martini? I know it’s normally green olives, but I suspect that brine would make a mean Dirty Martini.

As I’m sure would Brian…

I’ll have to get some of those, Joe , & experiment with the Positively Filthy Martini… :cocktail:
