You can add black olives to your salad if you'd like, but a common green salad does not usually have them.

Can olives be used for salads?

Olives can be used in salad, they are actually really good in it (preferably black or green). The green olives are the ones with the red pepper in the center of it. Although I've never heard of an olive salad (like a salad made up of olives). I haven't eaten or heard of it, but I'm sure you can make your own, with spices and other ingredients. It's not impossible after all. Maybe try to make your own dish, and post your recipe here on wiki for everyone to know! I bet it will be yummy!

What is Difference between black and green olives?

Olives grow on olive trees in Spain, Italy, Greece, and the US. The black (ripe) olives have a stronger, more pungent taste than green olives. The reason that we don't taste the bitterness of the black olives (when we buy them in a can) is because most of the oil and flavor is taken out, when marinated in water with a slight bit of vinegar and just a very small amount of salt. The green olives that we buy in the jar are marinated in water with a bit of vinegar and lots of brine salt, and often stuffed with pimentos. The brine salt and vinegar kills the bitterness of the olives; this is why in the US when you taste green or black olives , you usually can't taste the original authentic flavor. Another difference is the curing. Olives are cured in brine (salt and water). A green olive is picked early so it remains green after curing. A black olive stays on the tree longer and is black. It is black when cured, too.

Are black olives rotten green ones?

No, black olives are not rotten green ones; they are simply a different stage of ripeness. Green olives are harvested before they fully ripen, while black olives are left to mature on the tree. The color change occurs as they ripen, which can also be affected by the curing process. Thus, they are distinct varieties rather than spoiled versions of each other.
