That brand is really inconsistent. I still see Mezzetta on the shelves and use that all choppy chopped for muffaletta's.
I am a fool for pickled stuff, love it all and I do my own okra and green beans for Bloody Mary's cuz I count that as a day's full serving of veggies. Mezzetta's Castelveltrano olives are flat outrageously good. I have proclaimed them as the house olive for martini's. I even drink martinis when I don't want one to have these olives.
I have just excited myself into another thread for us to share information, Brands I Endorse. Look for that coming to a thread near you soon. I excite myself often but this thread thingy may keep my hands off myself.
