Olives- what type and where to get them?

[rawererin]

Since they're supposed to be raw right? I've been on a major greek salad kick lately and it's not the same without olives, so how do I know which ones are raw?
PS- I'm not a big fan of dried olives... :(

I get the morroccan olives from Alex the Raw Guru. They ARE raw and very good. Make sure you don't order the dried ones (if you don't like them). The ones I get are in pure water and in a jar. Good luck!

I buy my olives from Alissa since she runs this site for free for people.

I try to support her as much as possible as I know how much a site like this cost to run and she doesn’t ask us to pay for the use of this site.

It’s a nice thing to do instead of promoting other sites to get products from. I would check out her store first.

You can try sunfood.com -they have a decent selection of raw olives.

Alissa Cohen does NOT sell the kind of olives that rawererin is looking for.

i get mine from matt monarch's (http://www.rawveganbooks.com/product_info.php?ref=199&products_id=1001006&affiliate_banner_id=1) site... and i looove them. i have 4 bottles in the fridge right now... wouldn't want to run out after all.

i go through phases as well... having them daily and then not for a month and then... wham, i'm eating them again.

so yummy!

I was keeping my mouth shut even though I knew a source... but as long as Alissa does not sell wet olives... If you REALLY have a hankering for olives that are not dried, you can get a gallon for $30 that are raw at www.organiclivingfood.com. :)

And here is the huge quantity of different types at another site: http://www.naturalzing.com/catalog/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=olives&x=0&y=0

eva, i usually just pop into her store before i post a link to another site, that way, if she sells it, i post her link instead!

Good call on that. For some reason I missed that the OP wanted non-dried olives. :)
