Funny how it goes for taste...we have a few cashew trees on Reunion and I really enjoy the true fruit, a very refreshing one especially as it comes in full summer (december here), either bright yellow or red, most people disregard it though.

Thanks for stopping in, reading and commenting.

You are right, it is funny. Cashews have slightly different flavors depending on where they grow. I wonder if the fruit is the same?

Of course, some people love black olives and others hate them. Maybe the difference is each one of us. LOL.

Have a great day!

Well I only tasted fruits from the same location but I guess they are quite variable depending on the variety, soils, watering and so on.
I love olives with bread and cheese!

JJ,

Sounds wonderful. What kind of olives, bread and cheese? How about a nice unusual olive (not the American canned store bought) with real Rye bread (or let's go with that bread with rosemary cooked in it) and Feta cheese. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM good!

As I am at the moment in Southen France we can get about twenty different olives on street markets, regular black or green ones, soaked in spices, hot pepper, stone broken, you name it! As for cheese France is supposed to have as many different ones as we have days in a year so choice is rather large but I like the hard ones, not too keen on Camembert. Yes, feta is erfect with olives and cheese. We also get here what is called 'tapenade', olive puree with anchovies, goes well with a glass of cool rosé wine.
Time for a nap after all this food!
