The host for my last show had a great product that would be wonderful for Christmas presents to my family. It stored black olives. It had two containers attached by a funnel piece. You dump the olives in top and then the juice. The juice flows down into the bottom container while the olives stay in top. But when you go to store it, you store it upside down so the juice is over the olives. When you want to get some out of the container, you flip it over and the juice runs back down to the bottom so you can get the olives out without the mess of the juice.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? The host cannot remember when or where she got it. I tried a few internet searches but all it pulled up was olive colored things or different containers.
 
Tupperware has a product that is similar to this.
 
No, no, no. "Olive" is Santa's 10th reindeer.

I've seen the "pickle" container which works sort of the same. This other one was way different.

YOU ROCK! That's it. I would have never found it under that name.
 
I did a search for olive storage container, and that showed up in the links above my results.Robin
 
Well, Olive is also a member of the Oyl family, the daughter of Cole and Nana, and she has a brother named Castor. I think she also (unofficially) has cousins Soy and Corn.
 
Don't forget the gearhead uncle, Motor.Robin
 
I stand corrected.Her family tree included Castor's estranged wife, Cylinda Oyl, and more recently, Olive's niece, Deezil Oyl appeared in some cartoons. Also among Olive's family are her cousin, Sutra Oyl and her two uncles, Otto Oyl and Lubry Kent Oyl.

One of the websites gave a great idea of cherries or coleslaw for other things to use it for.

Actually, when I was a kid, Santa always filled my stocking with a jar of maraschino cherries and a can of black olives - that way, there would be enough for the rest of the family at Christmas dinner.
 
You have left over black olives that need their own container? Impossible! Clearly, you are not an olive-lover.

I was just thinking of being able to munch on them when ever I wanted, not that there are left overs from my family gatherings. The fun part is to get the little ones to put them on their fingers. My 2 year old niece loves to do that!
