I do this with pepperoncini and pickles lol

When I worked at a fair trade store we had these Palestinian olives that were so damn good. Every morning I'd open a jar for customers to sample, eat olives till I made myself sick, then do it again the next day. Good times.

Sounds anti semetic

A while back a dev invited users to test out his app in beta that gave recipe ideas based on your dietary preferences (back before everyone was doing it).

I told it I’m vegetarian, am lactose free (m’spouse is lactose intolerant), and gluten free (I’m not, but 23andMe told me to maybe cut back on gluten to avoid developing the celiac’s I’m at risk for/others in my family have).

The only food it came up with for me— for dinner— was “a handful of almonds.”

That phrase has become a running gag with friends and I whenever we’re hungry af, because I’ll never forget how hilarious of a dinner suggestion that was. It felt akin to my vegetarian experience of going to a stakehouse for my grandpa’s birthday and the waiter being understandably woefully unprepared for my dietary preferences.

[-] doug@lemmy.today 20 points 1 week ago

Even now some recipe apps— when I look for gluten free stuff— I can tell it didn’t filter my results and instead just appended “gluten free” to ingredients that normally have gluten.

Which I get, but like… gluten free bread is gross/they haven’t mastered that at all.

gluten free bread is gross/they haven’t mastered that at all

Canyon Bakehouse has pretty decent bread, except the loaves grocery stores typically carry are woefully tiny. Like “for ants” tiny.

O’Doughs burger buns are decent, except two things:

  1. They don’t slice all the way through the bun when precutting, and
  2. They have poppy seeds on them

As for hotdog buns; well, all brand’s are shit and the people making them should feel really bad for the terrible job they’ve done. Seriously, they should feel nothing but shame.

[-] lagoon8622@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago

They make those disgusting hot dog buns and can't even be bothered to split the tops. Then you open it and it immediately falls apart

[-] zod000@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 week ago

Canyon is one of the best, but weirdly the Whole Foods store brand is really decent for their bread, waffles, and bagels and super cheap. Like matching normal bread cheap. I go to Whole Foods twice a month and buy pretty much only these items because my wife has Celiacs.

[-] PyroNeurosis 4 points 1 week ago

I'm pretty sure that anyone making things labelled 'hotdog buns' instead of rolls isn't paid enough to afford rent, let alone a sense of pride in their work.

OMG I would fucking destroy a handful of almonds right now.

[-] doug@lemmy.today 7 points 1 week ago

Ironically I indeed have come around to eating them as a snack, which I never would’ve considered at the time.

(I was more about whatever high sodium crap triggered the dopamine at the convenience store nearby: chips, Chex mix, corn nuts, etc.)

one time I got home late from work and I had a jar of pickles and a box of cheap wine in the fridge, so i poured myself a cup and grabbed some pickles and ate that for dinner, then about an hour later I had to run to the toilet to barf out all the pink relish

[-] paperazzi@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

That sounded pretty good until the pink relish part. Won't try it.

Usually these are supposed to be ironic, but I genuinely see nothing wrong with this.

[-] bier@feddit.nl 7 points 1 week ago

It's a healthier meal than 90% of stuff from the supermarket, maybe a bit high on the salt

Olives - the father
Olive tapenade - the son
Olive oil - the holy spirit

[-] alekwithak@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Weird I thought pimento was the son.

[-] bricklove@midwest.social 8 points 1 week ago

That's Protestant heresy!

What the fuck is wrong with you?

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago

Eat them out of a jar with your fingers?

What am I? A beast?

No. Chopsticks. I can eat far, far more olives if I preserve the integrity of my fingers.

[-] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

This works with Maraschino cherries, also. Helps you reach the bottom of the jar and keeps your fingers from turning red. Double bonus.

Said jar, by the way.

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Also like, why are you getting your fingers in brine/ syrup that is going to stay in the jar? Thats gross.

Also, holup.

Are you just straight mackin' Maraschino cherries?

[-] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

...Yes?

It's the dessert of champions.

Am I the only aspiring tree frog in this thread? Nobody else enjoys putting olives on their fingers and waving menacingly?

[-] QuizzaciousOtter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 1 week ago

To be frank, I definitely did this as tome point and I'm pretty sure I actually did not regret it.

I’m described by this meme and I don’t like it.

[-] IhaveCrabs111@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Didn’t you read the meme? There’s nothing to regret

[-] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

Obviously you have to use your fingers, because you need to stick the olives on the ends of your fingers and wiggle your fingers around first before eating the olives.

[-] dontpanic 6 points 1 week ago

THANK YOU. This is the way.

You gotta balance that out with some croutons. Like, a whole bag of croutons.

Living in a hotel during the week, olives and sauerkraut are my go to when I can’t be bothered

[-] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

I suggest adding kimchi to this rotation

[-] iamnotme@feddit.uk 1 points 6 days ago

Excellent suggestion. I love Kimchi, and have been making my own recently

[-] gamer@lemm.ee 8 points 1 week ago

I'm drunk as fuck rn but the pub I went to had some bomb ass olives that tasted kind of like corn, and now I regret not asking what they were called.

[-] WoodScientist@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 week ago

Fuck it. Ask them. Just pick up the phone and call them right now to ask.

[-] commie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 week ago

if it needs to be green olives, get the stuffed ones. but black olives are fine.

Later that day, my anus: "You have betrayed me!"

Costco sells a big jar of garlic-stuffed green olives and I have to ration my daily intake or I'll destroy the jar in no time
