As the last of the Easter eggs become egg salad, green olives in egg salad, yes or no? If yes, where are you? Trying to figure out where it’s common. My wife and I believe that green olives belong in egg salad, but my coworkers say no.
My egg salad sandwich at a Colorado courthouse cafeteria yesterday did not have olives in it. I’m not sure I’ve seen that before. But I could totally see it, especially since I’ve seen an olive since garnish on a deviled egg which is basically egg salad with the white as a boat for the rest. That was probably in the Midwest
The only place olives belong are crushed for oil or in the trash
I’m particular about the temperature at which I eat eggs. Personally couldn’t do cold egg salad at all.
In salad there are no rules. Follow your dreams.
Not common but sounds delicious. If you like egg salad with olives why tf not
Canada. Absolutely not. I like olives but no way do they go in egg salad.
Olives do not belong in egg salad.
I mean, if you put it in because you like it, that’s fine. You do you. But I wouldn’t eat it.
I’m into it. I’ll eat it either way, but I love green olives.
Pacific Northwest-ish
My mom made egg salad with Miracle Whip and sweet pickle relish, plus a little mustard, salt, and pepper. She grew up on a farm in Michigan.
I don’t eat egg salad anymore, but I would add green olives, I like them.
