Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Yes this could be the olives.
This is quite normal to pass such types of pieces of fibrous foods,skin of vegetables,raw leafy greens etc in your poop.This doesn't mean that you are having some problem.
It simply means that your high fibre diet is giving a indigestible material to your poop and is providing bulk to your stool.
It is absolutely normal and happens more if you are not able to chew your food properly.
I hope it helps however you may revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
