The small town of Corning is
170 somewhat flat, dreary miles from San Francisco, punctuated only by the
occasional sighting of an unusual migrating bird. It is the I-5 mid-point between Los Angeles
and Portland.

Everything olive is found here, in the town that is the center of the olive industry in Northern California. Taste a vast variety of flavored olives (the best being a toss-up between the greens stuffed with pimento and almond and the greens stuffed with garlic), pick up some car snacks, and chow down on fast food.

A cafe here offers an outdoor patio and a menu featuring hamburgers, shakes, and sandwiches--one of which is a muffuletta sandwich making use of the house muffuletta olive salad mix.
