Truth and Consequences

The label on the jar of Trader Joe's Colossal Olives handstuffed with Blue Cheese says two of the olives have 15 calories.

Huge chunks of blue cheese jammed in the cavity of an inch-long olive. Hm.

But it's in print, right? And they CAN'T lie!

The whole jar, in that case, is merely a 300 calorie meal. Yum.

I'll post photos of my new Lane Bryant outfits when it is over.

Ha ... 15 calories? Will wonders never cease, that Trader Joe is a miracle worker. Are you sure it's not like 15 calories "per serving" and there is .1 olive per serving? They always get ya on that "serving" thing ...

Well, Janet, I think this is a blue feta, if that is possible. Dang salty, anyway. I like the ones from Whole Foods better but they are like $15.99 a pound, and these are $3.49 a jar. Maybe I will make my own.

It says 2 olives are a serving. Or maybe they slipped a decimal point and it is truly .2
