Can you eat the garlic that comes in some jars of olives straight or is the flavor still really intense?
Good question, but it still depends on your personal preference. Garlic is not cooked when pickled, like many vegetables are, including cucumbers, carrots, etc. When you see a whole clove of garlic floating in a jar of olives it's there to add flavor. If you really like the flavor of garlic, go for it, because you'll get a rush of it. However, if you don't want to end up smelling like garlic for, at least, the next few hours or don't like that unusual after-effect (think burping...) you get when eating large amounts of raw garlic, it's best to either use it in something, to dilute it a little, or avoid it altogether.
