This is no way to talk about Popeye’s girlfriend!
olives are certainly not bland
isn’t that the joke? olives are none of those things
They also tend to be firmer and fleshy, not mealy
Once I ate one off the tree and it was a POWERFULLY gross flavor
Autumn Olive is a fruit you can forage for in autumn. It tastes like shock tarts and it’s delicious. I recommend it.
Invasive outside of Asia though 😬
Try Kalamata olives on a wood-fired Neapolitan pizza before writing them off completely. That’s what converted me.
I believe Russian olive was named first and has a bit more similarities. Then Autumn olive was named after Russian olive die to their taxonomic relationship.
