Description
A French Quarter Icon: The Original Muffuletta
Step into a world where the savory scent of cured pork and aged cheeses fills the air, and shelves overflow with imported Italian delicacies. This is Central Grocery, where Salvatore Lupo created the world’s first muffuletta in 1906.
They still do things the old-fashioned way for three generations. Each sandwich is a masterclass in texture and flavor, featuring generous layers of fresh-sliced meats stacked on locally baked, handmade bread. It’s finished with the essential component: Lupo family's proprietary Italian Olive Salad.
Taste the tradition that made Central Grocery famous.
Unit Size: 32oz
Ingredients: Olives with Pimentos, Oil Blend (Soybean/Extra Virgin Olive Oil), Cauliflower, Carrots, Celery, Kalamata Olives, Red Bell Peppers, Capers, Pepperoncini, Water, Vinegar, Salt, Spices, Garlic and Calcium Chloride, Potassium Sorbate, Lactic Acid, Sodium Bisulfite and Yellow No. 5 as preservatives.

We have been buying this product for many decades. Have tried other olive salads but Central Grocery is still the best.

This was just like being in NOLA having a muffaletta, tastewise
This was just like being in NOLA having a muffaletta, tastewise. My only complaint is that the olives in the jar are not chopped as small as the rest of the ingredients. Whole olives don't fit in a sandwich. I had to find each olive in the jar and cut it several times, a time consuming effort. HOWEVER, I will reorder when the jar is empty.

We got the sandwich in New Orleans and then bought the olive salad immediately thereafter
We got the sandwich in New Orleans and then bought the olive salad immediately thereafter. Didn't want fly with a glass jar. Super awesome. Wished there was a smaller jar option. Don't know how long it'll take us to eat it all...

It was easy locating the exact product I was looking for, and delivery was incredibly fast--even though it was in the middle of holiday shipping season. The olive salad was greatly appreciated by the recipient!

Native New Orleanean here:I never used to like olives
Native New Orleanean here:I never used to like olives. Then I had a Muffaletta from the Central grocery. The olive salad paired with the meat and cheese and the olive oil soaking into the bread, OMG...delicious! From this mix, I developed a taste for olives. Fast forward a few years. So, my dad buys me a jar of this stuff for my birthday a couple months back and I opened it up to put some on a salad I was making. I took a spoonful straight out of the jar and ate it before I put it on the salad and just WOW! It blows away the olives I usually use for my salad. The mix of ingredients and flavorings just transcends any other olive mix...this stuff is AMAZING. Laissez les bons temps rouler...bon appetite.

Since the reviews for this product and the Boscoli brand seemed contradictory, I bought both and did a side-by-side blind taste test
Since the reviews for this product and the Boscoli brand seemed contradictory, I bought both and did a side-by-side blind taste test. All 16 of the testers picked the Central Grocery brand as being the best tasting. The olive oil was bright and did not muddle the flavors of the vegetables and olives like the oil blend did in the Boscoli brand. The flavors in the Boscoli were just "off", and Central Grocery was the clear winner!
