"""A New Mexico restaurateur is stirring the pot once again with his questionable “Black Olives Matter” branding — this time on T-shirts and hats.
Paisano’s owner Rick Camuglia, who came under fire last month for erecting a Black Lives Matter-riffing sign to shill his olive tapenade, recently began selling the merch to offer customers a souvenir from the Italian eatery.
“It’s just something to do that’s kind of fun now,” Camuglia told local ABC affiliate KOAT, which first reported the news. “It’s a little bit different than selling pasta.”
Paisano’s Italian restaurant has begun selling “Black Olives Matter” merch.
The shirts and caps go for $20 and $25 a pop, respectively, subbing in an olive for the “O” and pizza slice for the “V” in “olives.”""
