I caught the xkcd reference. But why olives?

It's actually an olive reference, with just a little bit of xkcd thrown in:

Why would I regret eating olives? Because they're salty? Or maybe because I don't like olives?

I don't know. Maybe just eat 30 to 40 and find out?

Well now I regret even asking 😜

It's originally a meme about eating 30 olives for dinner.
