Food – the perfect Greek snack

After a quick trip to our local market in Pollonia Greece, on the island of Milos, i made myself a nice midday snack. A Greek salad always consists of tomatoes, feta, kalamata olives, oregano, and olive oil. As we have found out it can have a few other ingredients, such as bell pepper, cucumbers, and lettuce to name a few, but always includes the first six. 

The market in Pallonia sells produce that is grown all over the island, and in some cases right here in town. It seems like every Greek house hold has an array of fruits and veggies growing in their yard.

Perfect Snack

Sloane Loves Olives

She loves brined olives of course, not the fresh ones. For those of you that have never had the opportunity to eat a fresh olive off of a tree they are incredibly bitter and will immediately suck all of the moisture out of your mouth. It will also effect your taste buds for at least an hour afterward, Sloane claimed like it felt like she had a layer powder on her cheeks afterward. Sloane won herself a large beer for doing what’s in the video bellow.
