They are a bitter tasting olive at a whopping $4.00 an olive!
Actually I've found them for $5.99 for 10 oz. and I wouldn't call them bitter at all. Just a bit stronger.

Nicoise Salad.
It is a type of French salad. It includes tomatoes, anchovies, black olives, green beans, canned tuna, and hard boiled eggs. Interestingly, some restaurants will used grilled fresh tuna to make it "classier", but this isn't the real recipe.
"Niçoise" means from Nice, a town in France. A salad Niçoise has niçoise olives, which are small and purple in color. The attached link shows a better salad Niçoise than what is served in most restaurants here or in France. Check this page from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niçoise_salad
According to other websites, the Kalamata olive may be substituted for a nicoise olive. Since a nicoise is cured in brine and packed in olive oil and the Kalamata is not packed in olive oil, I am not sure that it is an exact substitute, however.
