Mario Camacho Foods Pitted Snack Olives - Green Olives with a Hint of Garlic - 1.05 oz Pouches (Pack of 12)

I love these olives so much. They're just the right amount of firm/soft texture. The flavor is slightly tangy and savory from the spices/garlic. There are tiny bits of white garlic pieces stuck to the olives, which is maybe more than "a hint," but I'm not complaining because I LOVE garlic. I love that there aren't any preservatives in these, just lactic acid. My stomach finds these easy to digest. There are two servings in each pouch, which is weird, and I definitely eat both servings at once. There aren't enough olives in there to be more than a serving, unless you're a complete weirdo. The label says "packed loose without the juice" and this is about 85% true... there's definitely some juice in there, just not a ton of it. I have POTS, so I have to eat salty snacks often to survive the day. These have a lot of sodium, which is exactly what I want and need. In fact, I often go around reading labels looking for the snack with the most salt! These are perfect for me to slide into my purse and eat on the go (beware the juicy fingers, tho). As an aside, I tried the variety pack from this brand, and didn't like it as much. Sticking with this flavor.

These olives are a godsend on my low carb diet. I'm active and we like to travel as a family, which means I'm constantly confronted with snacks that aren't on my meal plan being eaten by others in the car with me. These olives allow me to have a treat but not blow my carbs for the day. I pair it with some cubed cheese and I've got a great, on plan snack. I like the texture of the olives. They're not mushy our overly firm. These olives have just the right amount of spice, and they are very dry, which is an added perk while traveling. I don't have to worry about spilling olive juice in the car or on my clothes. My kids love these olives, too. I wish they came with more pouches to a box, because I'd gladly share more with them. These are a great option for travel, for emergency snacks kept in the car, for lunch boxes, and the like.

They taste great and are without a doubt a better quality than the other brands of packaged olives that I have purchased . I love their portability as a snack and ease of packing in my lunch without having to fight with another container that is difficult and might leak. This brand taste like an Olive with out leaving a chemical taste that I have found with other brands. What I dislike is there is no way to close the pouch after opening but let’s be honest I ate all of them in my pouch so didn’t need to worry —

I am a black olive fan. I love Moroccan "date" olives, which are black, oily and wrinkly. I never really liked green olives, finding them too rubbery and tangy. On an airplane about a year ago, however, I bought a snack pack that had Ooloves green olives in it and I was so hungry I ate them. And I LIKED them. I actually like Ooloves brand better than Mario but Mario is more economical and more available, so I buy them instead. I keep them in my purse on busy days when I'm out of the office and do not know when or whether I will be able to eat on a regular schedule. Or I carry them as a snack when I fly (it is cheaper to BYO rather than buy a snack box). These olives are a delicious, salty, convenient snack perfect for staving off hunger without sugar or simple carbs. (I emphasize portable snack -- there are much more economical ways to buy olives if you eat them regularly. This is something I keep on hand for convenience from time to time). I always have a napkin, too by the way, because these leave fingers a bit oily.

These are my new favorite snack! The garlic is truly "just a hint" as the package says-- just enough flavor (I believe there's thyme or some other herbs in it, as well) to mellow out some sharpness that plain green olives have, but you still have a nice briney kick. Perfect size for traveling and the packets are sealed well and durable, although the packet isn't resealable, that's not an issue as there aren't usually leftovers, hahha. (Btw: If you've done the fasting-mimicking diet Prolon, these olives are a dupe for the olives they have on the plan.)

This brand of olive is seasoned with tiny bits of garlic and it is low in sodium. It is a whole olive, small in size. My favorite snack over eating something sweet. Easy to carry in your bag for the on the run moves. Children like them as well, thanks to my grandson who loves green olives. Give them a try!

Love these Olives by Mario Camacho! Great flavor, easy to throw in the lunch bag or just snack on them throughout the day. These green olives go great with Martinis too! Definitely will subscribe to keep them in the house as everyone in our household devours them. I haven't tried all the flavors but the quality of these olives are top notch. I also love that they are not drowning in oil or heavily flavored, they are lightly seasoned and packed in light oil which also is nice not to spill oil everywhere when opening the pack. I put these on my salad or have as a snack by themselves. If you haven't tried these yet, you're missing out!

Olives were fresh and delicious! love the product
