Did you Know

What do you think of when you see a can of olives... or hear the word olive?
Have you ever noticed that when ever a can of olives is opened everyone runs to the can, eager to top every finger and both thumbs, then bites them off one by one with a huge smile on their face? Come to think of it, olives do have a magical ability to make you feel better.

The magic in olives is the mono-unsaturated fats. The omega-3 fatty acids can interact with the central nervous system to elevate your mood. So the next time you feel a little down, grab a can of olives and eat away. Worry about the calories later. :) Make sure you have plenty in your food storage.
The information obtained came from a Novel I'm reading called, "Home to Italy," by Peter Pezzelli. It has been a very fun book to read. You never know what you will learn just from reading a novel.
