About GREEK KALAMATA WHOLE OLIVES, GREEK KALAMATA
Meijer Greek Kalamata Whole Olives are whole-pit kalamata olives sold under the Meijer private label in a traditional brine. Kalamata olives are a Greek PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) olive variety grown in the Kalamata region of the Peloponnese, characterized by their almond shape, dark purple-black color, rich fruity flavor, and relatively high oil content compared to other olive varieties.
The ingredients are simply kalamata olives, water, red wine vinegar, sea salt, and lactic acid. The red wine vinegar-based brine is the traditional preservation method for kalamata olives and contributes a characteristic tangy note that complements the olive's natural richness. No artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors are present. The formulation is clean and consistent with authentic Greek olive brining practice. No food allergens are declared.
Nutritionally, a 15-gram serving (approximately 2–3 whole olives) provides approximately 40 calories, 4 grams of fat, 1 gram of carbohydrates, and no protein. Per 100 grams, values are 267 calories and 26.7 grams of fat. Kalamata olives are a meaningful source of monounsaturated oleic acid, polyphenol antioxidants, and vitamin E — the health-promoting components associated with Mediterranean dietary patterns.
Kalamata whole olives are a staple of Greek cuisine, appearing in Greek salads, pizza toppings, tapenade, pasta preparations, and as standalone table olives. Their whole-pit format is authentic but requires that consumers be prepared for the pit. These olives pair beautifully with feta cheese, tomatoes, cucumber, and fresh herbs in Greek-inspired preparations. Best refrigerated after opening.
