Been doing that for the last year and they are much better tasting as well as

much healthier. I add lots of herbs, ginger and/or garlic to mine and they

taste delicious.

Popeye's Girl was named Olive Oyle. ?Sp?

 

Everything I ever read about this says That " Extra Extra Extra Virgin " is

the first pressing of the oil!

 

Now- all kidding aside, why is not just simply: " Virgin Olive Oil " the

first pressing.

 

My guess is because someone was cheating or lying and selling a second or

third pressing labeled with the traditional first pressing label --Virgin--

 

Most probably some European Country did not have the guts to put some guys

in Jail.

 

So now you have to buy the " Extra Virgin " and hope it is the first

pressing.

 

Maybe someone in California could tell us something about this fakery.

 

--------------------

 

About the term " Cold Pressed " .

 

Maybe you remember your High School Chemistry or Physics teacher

demonstrating that pressing or compressing a substance causes it to get HOT!

 

So a huge press that is pressing out Olive Oil a ton at a time is operated

ever so slowly to keep everything cool? I do not know if this is belivable.

With some other oil products if the press at a temperature below cooking it

gets called cold!

 

 

" Cold Pressed " may be just a lie, euphimism or Sales gimmik!

 

Again maybe someone in CA. can answer this.

Oil for cooking.

 

You are about to be bombarded with a new hazard to health caused by frying

food over 250 degrees. They are going after the fast food " Fries " for

being cooked too hot and thus accumulating this new toxin. The

unpronouncable Name starts with an " A " .

 

So it will soon be out of style to fry at 400 degrees.

 

Hint; It is possible to make baked Fries at home in the oven at a lower

temperature.

Good Eating,
