Trader Joe's Marinated Olives

I read a blurb somewhere, I don't remember where, about a new product being carried at Trader Joe's. So, when I had the opportunity to go recently I looked for it.

The cryovac'd Marinated Olive Duo w/lemon & herbs....I know, sounds weird. Who would buy Kalamata & Chalkidika (green) olives packed in a plastic bag and hanging on a rack by the canned goods?

Well, let me tell you....I WILL !!! They are really tasty - and (get this:) they only cost $1.99 for 8.8 oz. That's WAY LESS than purchasing them at the olive bar at the grocery store.

Good to know. Thanks for the tip.

I heard that too.

Beth, I have that package in my kitchen cabinet, waiting for me to open it! I keep forgetting. I bought it, based on the recommendation of another shopper. She grabbed a bag, I was looking at it, telling me how good they are. So I bought a bag. That was about a month ago...gotten open it soon...
