I've never heard or read anything about black olives promoting cancer. This doesn't mean that there is no research to the contrary.

They have a high concentration of Omega-3 fatty acids which are good for your cardiovascular system.
Very firm, tart, slightly bitter. I think of them like a pickle but definitely not sweet. Funny though olives like dill pickles are suppose to curb the sweet cravings when dieting and it actually works for me. Be aware they are not as low in calories probably because they are packed in oil. They are an acquired taste.
