Pearls Olives to Go Review

Thanks to my partnership with Sweat Pink, I received a sample kit, lunchbox and compensation for this review. 

I recently received this lovely sample kit from Pearls Olives and have enjoyed tossing them into my lunch box and using them in recipes at home. When I was younger, I mainly ate just the pimento stuffed olives and was sort of scared to try any other type! We always have pimento stuffed olives out as a snack at our holiday gatherings. Now I particularly love black olives and kalamata, especially on pizza or in pasta dishes.

Olives are considered a good fat, which is great for lowering bad cholesterol. The fat also helps you stay full longer.

I like that the cups come without liquid and are pre-portioned in smaller sizes, which prevented me from overeating.

While I thought the packaging was going to create more waste and I considered that a negative aspect, I just washed the cups out and recycled them. Seeing the recycling symbol on the back of the packages reminded me to be green and do this!

I enjoyed eating green olives at work as a mid-morning snack! I tend to snack on sweet things like bars or fruit at work, but it was nice to have something savory in my snack drawer for a change.

Facts about Pearls Olives:

• Musco Family Olive Company is the leading supplier of table olives in the U.S. 
• Nearly all olives grown in the United States are from California. 
• They are headquartered in Tracy, California, which is the most advanced olive plant in the world. 

For those of you in Milwaukee, look for a coupon for Pearls Olives to Go in The Journal Sentinel, The Wall Street Journal and many other Milwaukee-area newspapers on Sunday, May 3rd.
