i was just eating Trader Joe's pasta sauce - the one with olive oil and olives in it - i was eating it by itself without the pasta :)

and i found myself enjoying biting those olives slices in it, which got me thinking ...

shouldn't olives be good for you ? are there sources of them which preserve them at least partially raw ?

You can buy them raw, or preserve them raw yourself. I do both. :)

I have found that the nice raw ones are away too salty and the ones without salt (the shrivelled up ones) are not very nice.
Has anyone found a nice one that does not have any salt.
