Weis Quality Stuffed Manzanilla Olives
What it is
These are whole, pitted Manzanilla olives that have been stuffed with pimento. Manzanilla olives are known for their firm texture and mild, slightly briny flavor. The pimento adds a subtle sweetness and a soft, smooth texture to the center of each olive. They are typically packed in a brine solution to preserve their freshness and taste. This product offers a convenient way to enjoy a classic olive preparation.
