Central Grocery Olive Salad - 32 oz (Pack of 1) Perfect for Muffulettas, Sandwiches, Pizza Toppings, Pastas, Hot Dog Topper, Salads and More

I have been wanting to try olive salad for some time now, and only after recently watching a video involving muffaletta on YouTube did I decide to finally snag some. I was a little wary about the $20+ price tag, but I have to say that it's probably worth it. As soon as I unwrapped the jar from its packaging, I grabbed a fork and took a little taste test even though it was at room temperature... I was pleasantly surprised, even though most of what was on top was green olives. Once I get deeper in the jar, I'll get a better assortment of things, but I already enjoy it. I have a store-bought jar of olive salad, and it doesn't even remotely compare to Central Grocery's product. The store-bought uses canola oil in addition to olive oil, so it has this very oily, greasy consistency, which I didn't find that Central Grocery's product had with its soybean oil/olive oil mix. From first impressions, this is definitely something I would purchase again; I have been using olive salad on everything lately, and now that I have a quality salad, my food is going to taste that much better.Also, very quick shipping; I chose the free shipping option, and it still arrived only 3 days after placing the order. My one complaint is that there is no internal seal between the lid and the jar, and as such quite a bit of oil leaked out of the jar so it was a little messy unpackaging it. But, while unwrapping the bubble wrap (which there was plenty of; I don't think USPS could have broken the jar if they had tried to), all that leaked oil did make it smell delicious, so I guess it wasn't all bad.Delicious product, speedy shipping, lots of packaging material... would definitely purchase again, no question about it.

This salad is absolutely delicious! I thought it was wonderful when I had it in New Orleans, and that was years ago but I still remembered it all this time later. It is so hard to come by that I was willing to spend the extra money to buy this. I took a chance and ordered a bus Cooley bran this salad is absolutely delicious! I thought it was wonderful when I had it in New Orleans, and that was years ago but I still remembered it all this time later. It is so hard to come by that I was willing to spend the extra money to buy this. I took a chance and ordered another brand of Italian olives salad thinking that it couldn’t possibly be worth twice the money to buy this Central grocery brand. But I was wrong! Very wrong. The other brand of olive salad paled in comparison. I actually don’t even think that I can eat it after having tried and eaten the entire jar of Central grocery I’ll salad. Once you have this one you can never go back. The olives are only the best varieties, a combination of Hall and chopped olives, It is very heavy on the olives and light on the other vegetables, although it is the perfect combination. It also has just the right amount of spicy hotness and a beautiful combination of herbs and spices overall. While I may have to pare down on the use of this every day due to the price being so much higher than other toppings, I will never go back to any other brand of Italian olives salad. This is by far the best you can get! Bravo Central grocery for continuing centuries of excellence without compromising anything.!!

Love this stuff and that it is made in LA! Real deal!

Love it! Had it many years ago in New Orleans and would order directly from there. So glad I found it on Amazon.

This is pretty good. I grilled some salmon and put it over the salmon and it was very nice. I made a sandwich for my husband with a few different meats and cheeses, including this olive salad and he liked it very much. The only thing I wish especially when making a sandwich is that it didn’t have the big pieces of olive in it I wish it was all chopped up like the rest of it, and may be a little less oil in a little bit more salad in the jar for the price but overall it is a tasty treat, and I can imagine many applications for it. I recommend it.

This olive salad comes from New Orleans Central market, I bought my first bottle there 30 years ago I’ve been originated ever cents. I put it on everything sandwiches, salads or hot Italian food. It’s very good.

Central Grocery Olive Salad 32 oz is excellent!!! Five stars. Disappointment is that I ordered 2 units for gifts less than a month after the first unit was purchased. Unfortunately, when the additional 2 units arrived, the use by date was only about 2 months away. This seemed unacceptable for a perishable item. Tried to contact seller via Amazon to ask question regarding the short use by date and was told I could not return the product. This may have been an Amazon AI issue because I did not even request returning the product. Again great product! But disappointed by the short time to the use by date and inability to ask the question.
