What you're eating is what we call "aceitunas. They come in stuffed, pitted, or pitted forms. They're generally grown in the center of the country, and most come from Spain. I don't particularly like them; I always leave them to my wife.
By the way, that pizza below looks delicious. It's a very popular food here (I'd say, the most popular).

I love them (Pimento stuffed) in a Martini, up, very dry (no vermouth) , 2-3 olives on the
side (if put in the glass it takes up gin/vodka space) unfortunately usually stolen by my wife,
stirred NOT shaken (shaken creates ice chips in the drink diluting it unnecessarily).
His explanation of the difference...I did not know.

My wife likes the ice chips. So I always shake her martini. Me … personally … have developed an appreciation for both techniques … and can go with the flow.
Very dry. Just wave the Vermouth over the glass.
I prefer 2-3 fingers of Crown Royal, three ice cubes, topped with Royal Crown Cola, in a low-sided tumbler. I call it "Royal Mirror". No fuss, no muss, no ice chips, no 007, just good...
Crown Royal was my dad's absolute favorite bourbon.
He made a big thing out of taking the bottle out of its purple cloth bag.
After a while we all got into it and stood up for a round of applause every
time he got it out and got ready to pour.
That would make him laugh, but secretly I'm sure he felt it was well deserved.
