green or black olives?

here green olives are standard in potato salad.

my own preference is that i do like both sweet and
dill pickle chunks along with the olives, but it is
really busy then. sometimes i prefer simple and none
of those three are added.

chopped raw onions, potatoes, boiled eggs and celery
along with the dressing is the most basic version. the
dressing is usually a mix of mostly mayo, some honey,
and a bit of mustard. i don't like celery seed in it.

i also don't really like cheese in it, but some
people do that (and i've had it where someone put
chunks of cream cheese in it which was different).
