Greek culture. A fine balance of hunger and revenge.

From Daredevil’s Elektra to the classical story of The Odyssey to the present day political issues, it all comes down to hunger and revenge. Maybe that’s why the Greeks get credit for influencing art, and music, and philosophy, and drama, and so many many things that made our species better. Macedonia might have invented the One World Government, but it was Greece which laid the foundation which even now helps every lazy screenwriter with a deadline. And that’s why we, the copywriters of Wine.Woot who are trying to make it to a lunchtime pool party, salute the vengeful olive.

Kalamata, Nafplion, Amfissa, and other delicious Greek olives are gathered together, much as the city-states of old have been gathered into the glorious Mediterranean nation, boasting the sunny Messinian valley from which these olives come. Whether you choose pitted or unpitted, these olives will be in a balanced mix of fruity, peppery, flavorful extra virgin olive oil, straight from the Mani region. These hand-picked olives will be a fantastic reminder of Athena’s gift to the world (by which we mean the olive, not the concept of being a Daddy’s Girl) and a delicious addition to your summer snacks.

We really recommend you pick up as many of these Mani Foods Imported Greek Olives as possible. Not just because they’re delicious and part of a healthy Mediterranean diet. But because if you don’t, the Greeks might get mad. You ever read history? Seriously, the Greeks are a people you want to keep on your good side.
