I just have to say, that I'm not eating only one olive every few days, these deli olive would have gone bad by now(maybe that's why they were so vinegary). I wanted to clear that up, just in case anyone was wondering. Today's olive had I flavor I couldn't quite place, it was savory but there was something else in the mix of flavors that I just have no idea what it was. But it was good. It had a big round pit without sharp poky edges, so for once, my mouth was safe from the evil plots of pokey kalamata olive pits.
Sorry for the bad quality of the photo, I used my iPod for it, but I do that for all my photos, so I don't know why it came out so fuzzy. This olive had a saltiness of 6.5, just in the range of being able to taste it. It was very soft, but I think it added to the overall olive. It made it kind of wrinkled and withered looking, which made me feel kind of like I was eating an old lady olive, but that's okay. It was a sweetness of 5, Almost non existent, but there as a background flavor. Vinegariness was a 6, so not a big part of the flavor, but it was there more than the sweet parts are.It had a pretty nice size, but nothing to rave about, so it gets and 8. I have to note that it was very oily, because it was at the bottom of the container, which had oil in it. It's not a part of the actual olive, but it affected my enjoyment, so I might as well mention it. Overall, this olive was an 8, better than average.
