Mario Camacho Foods Castelvetrano Pitted Olives (Pack of 1)

These are sooooo good. I ate half a jar because I couldn’t quit lol

At the same time I bought these, I bought unpitted Castelveltrano olives at Whole Foods Market. These pitted olives were by far the better value and just as flavorful as the unpitted from WFM. That said, and FYI, this is a very mild flavored olive.

This was my first time ever eating Castelvetrano olives. I bought them to eat with a favorite snack: blue cheese and green apple slices on crackers. They are not as salty as salad olives and the flavor was a little more "delicate", I suppose (as every description of this type of olives seems to call them), I now realize in lieu of any better adjective for "slightly more bland". They are perfectly edible, in any case, and they have a good, firm texture. I'd get them again when they are out of the Mario feta stuffed green olives I prefer.

These high-quality olives are a treat. The taste is buttery. Love the texture which is al dente. No sharp aftertaste. Use these for special occasions.

First off, the color is drab green, certainly not the bright green color characteristic of Castelvetrano olives. Secondly, the texture of this olive should be firm, almost crunchy. These are as mushy as canned olives and taste like canned olives. Castelvetrano olives have a unique flavor and that's missing here. The price is cheap for Castelvetranos but expensive compared to canned olives which these taste like. I tried to order 12 jars because of the price. Thankfully, Amazon limited the purchase to 4 jars per person.

These are one of the better products that I have come across.. Olives are tasty and well preserved..

The olives are delicous and arrived well packaged. However, there was only a single jar, not a pack of 6 as the description states.

These olives are huge and huge of flavor. They set off a cocktail with an awesome appearance. And their size calls for chopping them a little to put into a salad. I put some in an egg salad and they made it!
