Joz, simple, but effective 

when buying the stuff, i simply select the cheapest lightest coloured olive oil on the shelf for cooking

i've got this notion - lighter the colour the better for you - dunno if it actually is - just sounds feasible, lol

Generally, the lighter the colour, the lighter the flavour for olive oil, so it is easier to use in more things. Without everything tasting too olivy.

The lighter the colour the less pure it is.  Keep the dark olive oil for dressings and the light stuff for frying.

 Good one Allie.

I saw Dr Oz mention 4 healthy combinations of food the other day.

In other words they go well together, assists in absorbtion of the goodness in them.

Olive oil  with  Brussel Sprouts

Apple  with  Dark Chocolate

Greentea  with  Lemon

Pink Grapefruit  with  Avocado

Can do some creative recipes out of those.

Olive oil  with  Brussel Sprouts I think he was pulling your leg about this one - NO ONE would reccommend Brussel Sprouts in any combination!

 

 

Apple  with  Dark Chocolate Well that has credibility...

 

Greentea  with  Lemon

 

Pink Grapefruit  with  Avocado has he tasted grapefruit?????
