The low-calorie, mess-free natural olive snacks are produced in four fun flavors, including: Basil & Garlic, Chili & Garlic, Lemon & Rosemary and Chili & Oregano. Each bag promises at least 10 large olives that are free from stones and liquids, unlike a number of olive snacks that are sold in jars on the market. As well as calling out its natural olive snacks as all-natural, low in saturated fat, vegan, Kosker and gluten-free, Oloves also notes that its products make ideal additions to a child's lunchbox.
