What Happens If You Eat Bad Olives?
If you eat bad or spoiled olives, you may experience food poisoning symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach cramps, and fever. These symptoms can occur within a few hours to a few days after consuming the bad olives. Spoiled olives can also contain harmful bacteria, such as Salmonella and Listeria, which can cause serious health issues. It is best to discard any olives that appear discolored, slimy, or have a foul odor.
