Mezzetta Pitted Italian Castelvetrano Olives, 8 oz Dr. Wt. Jar

How i love these olives. I've tried several kinds of packaged castelvetrano olives, and these are the best taste and value. If you're not familiar with these, its a moderately firm, thicker olive with less salt than most glassed olives. The crunch varies from bottle to bottle but most are at least a bit crunchy. This brand is cheaper than other stores, and tastes better.

A little pricey, but there's just no comparison to the regular small pimento stuffed olives I've eaten my whole life. I was tired of taking the pimentos out of every olive because I use green olives for many dishes %26 nearly every day. I came across these with no pimentos. They're twice the size of the pimento filled ones of any brand. I did a little research %26 learned that the best tasting %26 best quality green olives are "Castelvetrano," which is a town and comune in the province of Trapani, Sicily, in southern Italy. I first ordered one jar to try; they definitely have to be refrigerated for the optimum taste. I went through that jar quickly %26 then ordered three more. I'm on my last jar %26 plan on ordering a lot more today! I absolutely, definitely, highly recommend these delicious Castelvetrano olives!
