Athenian eat a lot of olives. The myth of Athenia, the Greek goddess of wisdom, had a contest with Posideon, the god of water, to see who could please the people most. Posideon added a lake to city were Athenia created the first olive tree. The people liked the olive tree more and named the city after her. Since then olives have been most popular there.
