Organic extra virgin expeller pressed misted from an atomizer is the best. I used it as, ah, emergency personal lubricant for a dry GF, and now I always think about salad dressing and olives when I have sex. Seems to send the blood to the wrong place. I have to think about dolphins to counter it...

Using an atomizer as a applicator for olive oil is a great idea Gegogi! :good3: I'm going to try it!

I use olive oil as a substitute for lotions and moisturizers.
I also use it as a type of salve in a effort to ward off (very effective) skin irritation from clipping/shaving my facial hair.

I always bathe my food with olive oil! it cleanses the veins and lubes the digestory system. That's the secret of the Greek diet. =)

Anyone try macadamia nut oil?
I've heard it said that olive oil is good cold but that for high heat cooking, coconut oil or other oils with less polyunsaturated fat can be healthier because they're less likely to be altered by the heat.

Refined oils, despite being less healthy at low heats, are less likely to burn at high heats which is an advantage.

There seems to be a holy war among nutritionists going on regarding which oils are better for what.

Oil in general seems to be immunosuppressive, and the 'antiinflammatory' oils especially so.

Even so, hypocrite that I am, I love broccoli drizzled with olive oil and lemon and baked in the oven till crisp.
I have to second coconut oil, excellent for the gut too.. many benefits if you google it!

I did some research on the subject and it seems there is a way to still be able to cook with olive oil:

"The smoke point of any edible oil depends a lot on the free fatty acidity (FFA or acidity) of the oil. The lower the acidity the higher the smoke point.

All refined oils such as canola, vegetable, sunflower, peanut, flaxseed, rice bran etc etc have pretty well close to zero acidity as the refining process removes all of the free fatty acids.‘Pure olive oil’, ‘Light olive oil’ and ‘Olive oil’ are also refined and as such they smoke at a respectable 230C.

On the other hand, Extra virgin olive oil is a natural product and as such its acidity varies greatly from brand to brand. Some carefully made artisan oils have acidities as low as 0.07%, but a good EVOO will typically come in around 0.2 to 0.25%. However, your typical inexpensive supermarket extra virgin olive oil from the EU will probably be around 0.5% acidity with some even nudging the comical International Olive Council limit of 0.8%. These seemingly small differences in acidities actually have a significant influence on the temperature at which the oil will begin to smoke.
.......
So pay more for a well made extra virgin olive oil with a lower acidity and it’ll reward you with significantly more degrees of heating potential. But also remember that each time you heat an oil its free fatty acidity will rise resulting in a reduction in its smoke point." http://www.aromadictionary.com/EVOO_blog/?p=147

The guy writing is pretty heavy into the Olive Oil-world and has published a number of scientific papers on olive oil research.
