If you’d asked me before I watched this video if I thought olives could go bad, I probably would’ve said no, but now my mind has been changed!

A TikTokker named Isabella posted a video on the social media platform and showed viewers why she wasn’t too impressed with a recent purchase she made at Costco.

Isabella’s video showed her eating olives from a glass jar…and she didn’t get off to a good start.

She sniffed the open jar and obviously wasn’t pleased by it…and then she took a bite.

Isabella quickly spit out the olive and said, “Can olives go bad? I just got this!”

She told viewers that the olives tasted acidic and burned her tongue.

Isabella then wondered if she might get botulism from eating the olives.

She tried two more olives and spit them out and that asked, “Is that normal?”

Isabella posted a follow-up video and showed viewers that she tossed the jar of olives down a garbage chute.

Always be on the lookout, I guess.
