Chapter 11 olive road

--------------- olive road --------------- Operation (Figure 5) Operation (Figure 6) Olive Highway - Vow to Never Buy Olives in Cans Again! For some reason, I boldly picked up a can of black olives on the shelf of the supermarket. I wanted to try the difference between the glass bottles I always bought and the bulk ones at the counter. Sure enough, I ate the worst, most lifeless and weakest olives. . Maybe it's not the fault of the olives themselves, it's the canning and airtightness that kills them the most.Once the original elastic taste of olives disappears, it is like chewing chewing gum that someone has chewed.

Salty and sweet, crisp and tender, this one is marinated with red pepper, that one is stuffed with almonds, this one is sweet and bitter with orange peel, and the other one should be made with bay leaves and Oregon ( Oregano) sesame oil soaked, with a unique fragrance...

"Barrels" of olives of different flavors.They drove hard, and I sat comfortably in the back seat, and I couldn't help eating olives along the way, and occasionally gave a little reward to the driver in front.I ate blindly, of course I didn’t know which road I was on, but I was also very disciplined, and I didn’t throw the olive stones out—maybe it wasn’t necessary, because along the road in the mountains and fields, there were all vigorous and small green trees, trees, just Olive trees, that kind of green, is olive green.
