How do you get olive oil?

Are olives edible?

----------

PBS has a series called Globetrekker. They make programs on traveling to different countries. Last night they did a special food episode with some chefs as the hosts of each segment.

The first was Padma from Top Chef, She cooked this paella in Spain. The next segment was Tyler Florence visiting Italy. He went to an olive farm to harvest olives and to help make olive oil.

He's with the owner of the farm and talking about the process when the man tells TF that he should taste a fresh olive, right from the tree.

I just about wet my pants.

He takes the olive, pops it onto his mouth and starts to chew.

Who doesn't know that raw olives are not edible?

Here's a hint. He got the ULTIMATE surprise when he bit into a 'fresh olive'.
