Un-vinegary olives?

Hi Folks -
I couldn't seem to find the answer by searching, so please forgive me if this is an FAQ and I missed it.
I like olives, but most commercial olives are quite vinegary, more than I like.
Are there commercial olives or olive recipes that use less or no vinegar?
Thanks.

Does anyone know whether it's possible for me to buy olives that have had the bitterness removed, but by a non-salt method, like a commercial lye method?
I'd like to try some garlic/lemon recipes, but I'd like to start with olives that have not been treated with salt.
Thanks.

Hi,
Why not trying to buy raw olives and do it yourself and reducing the salt level?

Claude, that was some very interesting reading.
I'm not sure that I'm ready to do my own curing.
Is it possible for me to buy lye-cured olives that I can use in recipes?
