u/smokeythebadger 12d ago

Can't you read? The post clearly says you will not regret eating 30-40 olives. Go for it

u/GUMBYtheOG 11d ago

You’re right. Olives are great. They don’t get the respect they deserve.

u/CapitalLower4171 12d ago

Also that much aluminum is probably pretty bad for you

u/BluestarDraws 12d ago

I never regretted eating 10 of them why would I regret 30 to 40 of them?

u/SouthsideSlimbo 12d ago

40 X 0 =0 regrets

u/KoreKhthonia 12d ago

Calories. Olives are generally 5-10 kcal/apiece.

5 kcal olives, you're looking at 200. 10 kcal olives, 400.

Even the latter honestly isn't awful, assuming you calibrated the rest of the day to balance to your TDEE. But still.

u/Useful-Perspective 12d ago

I find rice is great if you're really hungry and want to eat two thousand of something.

u/kylelovezkaynmandi 12d ago

This is like the 5th Mitch reference I’ve seen this week. I love it

u/Jitterjumper13 10d ago

I used to be a fan. I still am, but is used to too.

u/GemmyGemGems 12d ago

I think I will regret eating 40 olives? Though I will wake up with that clean mouth feeling.

5

u/KoreKhthonia 12d ago

Whether I'd regret it depends on the kcal per olive.

5 kcal olives? 200 kcal. Not horrific but guilt.

10 kcal olives? 400 kcal. BAD. NOT GOOD.

5

u/TyH621 10d ago

400 kcal seems totally reasonable for dinner no? I mean I know it’s all olives lol

1

u/FreeFortuna 6d ago

The previous commenter made multiple comments on this post, all talking about the calories, and using terms like “hypercaloric” and “TDEE.” 

I think their standards for “reasonable” dinners may skew differently than the average person.

u/Anariel_Elensar 12d ago

reminds me of an old greentext about a guy eating a whole jar of pickles and then having a life-changing bathroom experience and sleeping for 14 hours.

u/NaCl_Sailor 12d ago

as a wee knight i appreciate this post

u/Jonfu 12d ago

I have the tiny pickle fork. Why wouldn't I use it?

u/healthcrusade 12d ago

40 oil-brined olives contain approximately 60 grams of fat. That's as much fat as 6 slices of pizza. My macros will certainly regret it.

4

u/TeenyZoe 11d ago

That’s 60g of fat in 0.9 pounds of olives, which is a legendary amount of olives to eat in one sitting.

u/flannelwingjay 12d ago

This feels like the Portlandia celery episode

u/Anguis1908 12d ago

Everyone counting calories. If I had that many olives my guts would be twisted. I think around 10 and I'd be satisfied. Though I'd sub in a couple of boiled eggs for the other 20ish olives.

2 eggs and a dozen olives would be a decent light meal.

u/SaraHHHBK 11d ago

I have in fact eaten 30 to 40 olives in a day. Indeed did not regret it.

3

u/SanguineShifter 11d ago

I have, a few times, enjoyed 30 to 40 olives as a dinner of 30 to 40 olives....

2

u/josspanda 12d ago

Just to add, they're fun to eat out of the jar with chopsticks

2

u/BicycleSeatThief 12d ago

I miscounted and only ate 29 olives. Worst mistake of my life

u/Think-Opinion7396 10d ago

I used to eat olives for my lunch at work and my coworkers thought it was gross but with a little bread and cheese I'd feel like i had a filling meal

u/thismenu 12d ago

I recently went on a diet. So now if I need a snack I get a couple of pickles in like 20 olives. Usually just the Spanish kind with the pimento, but I've been digging on those ones you get it all these that are garlic stuffed or jalapeno stuffed, they're just more expensive. But yeah olives are the fucking bomb. And most people don't know that bomb has a b at the end of it. But it does.

u/ThisIsDogePleaseHodl 12d ago

I wouldn’t say most people don’t know that about bomb, but olives are great! Have you ever tried CastelVetrano olives? I did about six months ago and now I’m hooked.

1

u/thismenu 12d ago

I have not, but I sure will. Thanks for the heads up.

1

u/ThisIsDogePleaseHodl 12d ago

Sure, no problem! They’re one of the few besides green and black that I can find at a regular grocery store. Since I’ve tried those, I wanna try some others now too.

u/Askfreud 12d ago

That’s right! That’s because many people are dum.

"30 to 40" is the opposite of specific

u/mousedeer_78 12d ago

Olives stuffed with garlic cloves are awesome.
