Black Olive as a Snack

One of the few snacks that my burritos love to munch in  is black olives. I am not crazy about black olives but for some reason my angels love them especially our son.

They can eat one big can of black olives in one setting.



They found so much fun in eating it as they can stick 'em into the tips of their fingers lol.

Here are some benefits of black olives according to ehow.com.


Black olives are a cholesterol free food and contain very little fat. The fat that is contained in olives is monounsaturated fat and there are only seven calories in one large black olive. These fruits can make a tasty snack addition with little health concern.




Just remember....




that a little bit of this
and a little dash of that
makes a sumptuous life...

so Spice Up Your Life.

When I was a kid, I loved black olive pizza. Now, I can't stand it. I've tried and it's just not good. lol. So maybe it's a kid thing.

Anong lasa ba nang black olives? Kasing lasa din ba yan nang green olives? Sa biglang tingin ay kala mo duhat yung kinakain nang dalawang anak mo o kaya black grapes, lol. Very expensive ang olives dito sa Pinas kaya hindi pwedeng basta papakin nang mga bata, lol. Thanks for the funny post. God bless you all always.

I love green olives but never cared for the black ones. I know a wonderful site where you find all the best foods for nutrition. I consult it often as I research herbs, spices, and nutrition. It's George Mataljan's Worlds Healthiest Food Org.

I love your site. It is very well laid out and attractive. God bless and take care!

Back when i was a kid, I realy loved black olive pizza. Now, I can't stand it. I've tried and it's just not good.

Really? That's interesting. I've never liked olives, but I've noticed recently that I don't dislike the taste as much as usual as long as it's just a little bit. Too much and I feel nauseated. I never thought to buy these for the younger kids to try out. Since I don't eat them it never dawned on me. I wonder if they would like them. Hmmm? Love the cute photos.

Dhemz said...

The game is probably one big factor there...kahit ako naman - if I can play with it, I'll eat it :) It's good looking at how much fun Rylie and Ej are having with olives.

I twirled olives in my fork at meal times during a cross-atlantic flight lol! (mga taong walang magawa, hahahah!)

P.S. bagong blog na naman to sis? oh, by the way, gusto ko'ng humirit sa Nostalgia meme mo. My work load is easing up.

I have no idea how Olives taste like, hubs doesn't like it,so there's no reason for me to buy any.

Lynn said...

First time I've heard (or read) about kids loving olives this much. This is good for a change. :)

Mommy Jes said...

I love spaghetti with black olives, but I can't really imagine myself eating black olives for my snack. Try ko nga minsan! If both your kids love them, there must be something in black olives (eaten alone) that are worth trying. Happy Mommy Moments!

seth said...

I never tried black olives...your children are awesome!

kimmy said...

REALLY! i'm not much of an 'olive' eater, for some reasons i don't find the taste yummy, lol! but they sure are having fun eating. nice post!

My older son loves olives. I was shocked when he first started eating olives, I didn't think it would be something kids enjoyed.

anne said...
