@mhoye (kinda OT) I do like olive oil, so I hope it's no worse than other oils. In the US (and Canada?) don't buy non-specialty EU olive oil, it isn't their best. California (and south America, somewhat) generally produce a better quality every-day EVO than the EU exports to NA. EU reserves their best for domestic distribution; they have standards for "extra virgin" and we don't, so their best goes to EU distribution . |

I havenโt dived in yet, but this looks hilarious ๐
