Role in food

Manufacturers add sliced black olives to foods for their distinct, mild flavor and texture. …

What it is

Sliced black olives are the fruit of the olive tree, typically the Manzanilla or Mission varieties, commonly grown in the Mediterranean and California. After harvesting, olives are cured to remove bitterness and then typically processed with ferrous gluconate or ferrous lactate to achieve a uniform black color before slicing.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add sliced black olives to foods for their distinct, mild flavor and texture. They are frequently found in pizzas, salads, dips, spreads, and as a topping for various savory dishes.

Health notes

Black olives are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They are a source of healthy fats and antioxidants. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated olives and their components, and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has also assessed related compounds. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.

Allergen info

Olives are not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA, nor are they a source of gluten.
