Taste of Spain – Can of Olives

brush pen, watercolour, 8″ x 5 “

This striking can of Spanish olives was purchased in Orleans, Ontario (a suburb or Ottawa) at an organic food store named, Farm Boy.  I love olives, but thought that the olives in this can tasted funny: oddly, over-umami-tasting.  The taste was hard to wash afterwards, too.  At least the can looked great!  Wishing there were Farm Boy stores in Toronto (insert sad face here).
