Roland Foods Whole Pitted Kalamata Olives From Greece, Specialty Imported Food, 4.4 Pound, Pack of 1

Great olives! Tastes good. Plastic container great (it does not break in shipping). We have purchased these several times and are very happy with them.

Though fairly salty, these olives are definately quite good and very nice in salads and other dishes.

Great tasting Kalamata olives at a price that is half what the local retail stores charge.

We've been getting this for a while and many of the batches are fantastic - great taste and great value for money, actually I haven't gotten this good tasting olives from any store. But some batches are bad - from the last 3 orders 2 of them were bad. One had pale, soft olives, with throw-up taste, and the other batch was extremely bitter. I had never tasted such bitter olives in my life, and I had eaten a lot of olives. I still think there must be a way to salvage them and researched online, so now I'm soaking them in water and changing the water daily, hopefully this will help. Roland should be doing better quality control. For now I'm discontinuing my subscription.Update: I managed to save the bitter olives by soaking them in water for a couple of days (and changing the water daily), and then soaking them in the brine left from another olives container. I resumed purchasing these olives and the last batch was great.

If you like black olives, this is the way to buy them. They are wonderful. I broke the large jug down into 16-oz mason jars, added garlic, lemon, and EVOO (I don't really like the vinegar taste). I shared one with a friend; the rest are for us. Yum!

We have purchased different olives from this company, no complaints, love um!!!

Salty, yet olives spoiled before other brand olives for similar amount of time and the same conditions. Can't recommend

Definitely a good value for the price (a lot of olives 🫒 in this container).Would have appreciated the container having some sort of safety seal on it (could have been opened and closed by anyone).About a third of the olives are broken or crushed and as far as flavor is concerned, the flavor is overpowered by an excess of sodium. (I rinsed a few to see if that would remove some of the salty flavor, but it's pretty well marinated in them).I admittedly am not.a fan of salt, so they may not be salty to those who don't mind or like it.
