Pickled beets. They're good until you forget you ate them

Every one is an s tier food. I fucking love olives and pickles.

Marinated sun-dried tomatoes & garlic. I could eat that forever.

2, 6 and 8 is fine.

Olives and capers can fuck right off!

You just made a list of many of the things I truly hate, food wise, lol. I guess sun-dried tomatoes are okay? 😅

I like all of these except capers. I eat olives and pickles regularly.

Chupadedos olives

Canned black olives are the only olives I really enjoy, but I haven't had a green olive since I was a kid and now I am not sure if the olive was gross or if it was just the pimento I hated.

But dill pickles (gherkins) are a top tier snack and condiment.

Dry, salty, black olives. Best paired with a light beer and a blazing-hot summer day.

Pickled jalapenos are just fantastic. Hot, sour, flavorful, and just versatile at 'waking up' all kinds of food.

Capers are great on all kinds of savory dishes where you want a little salt and sourness, but other pickles would just be overkill.

Canned black olives belong on pizza, and the occasional loaded nacho plate. They're kind of awful in other applications.

As for the classic dill pickle, ever had one in Dr. Pepper?

A nice artichoke heart in oil hits a spot nothing else does, but the versatility of the black olive is hard to beat.

Sundrieds can also be really good, but you have to know how to use them.

Jarred red peppers are underrated as a replacement for basically any other place you'd put a red pepper.

I like big-ass garlic stuffed green olives.

• Make margaritas and empanadas with the Spanish olives.

• Make nachos with canned black olives, jalapeños and maybe add the artichoke hearts… maybe.

• Make chicken piccata with the capers. Yummm! I love capers! 🥰

• Snack on cornichons; put sliced pickles in a sandwich (DIY chik-fil-a sandwich)

• Put sauerkraut over kielbasa.

The sun-dried tomatoes and I do not get along but thanks for asking. Please throw them out.

Everything on this list is my favorite, basically

Green olives. Preferably stuffed with garlic.

I make my own kimchi, sauerkraut, and various Chinese fermented vegetables.

I make what I call a "dirty margarita." Jalapeño stuffed olives are a must.

In a salad, kalamata or dried black olives.

Can’t forget the pickled okra!

Round here we call cornichons “sweet gherkins” and they’re pretty good

Also: At one point you put black olives on your fingertips for the last time and you didn’t know it.

Pickles are definitely my favorite on that list. My favorite is probably zesty bread and butter, but I also love dill. Black olives are alright. Most pickled veg are pretty good. Pickled jalapenos are good, but I much prefer fresh ones.

162... Meh on the rest

jfc people!

Castelvetrano olives > everything on that list

From that list, kalamata olives. But have you tried garlic cloves in herb oil? So good!

I love katamala olives and pickles. Black olives are fine if I can't get katamala.

Pickles are my favorite, especially dill spears. I've also enjoyed capers on top of grilled salmon with (I think) a beurre blanc sauce. Kalamata olives on pizza is really good too.

Castelventrano olives, pickled okra

Also i had olives stuffed with lemon rind recently and was hooked. Also good inside are jalapeños.

Some folks pickle watermelon rind

Have fermented my own beets and sauerkraut before as well.

I'm a fan of so many pickled and fermented things. It'd be a long list to answer.

Salt-fermented pickles. Mmmmm.

But really, I love all this stuff.

All have their place, but canned black olives tap into childhood nostalgia. Putting an olive on each finger and eating them one at a time.

I casually snack on cornichons straight out of the jar, or else with ham and camembert on a French baguette. In that case I'll slice them lengthwise just so they don't roll off.
