Olive Oil


It's not just for cooking.

Or virgins.

It can get things sizzling in more ways than one.

Recommended by fertility specialists, because even something as mild as KY can kill the li'l swimmers in some people.

Something to think about the next time you have bread with dipping oil.

Oh thanks. :-)

(Is it also cheaper than KY? Purely hypothetical for me at this point, but I'm curious.)

(I now have phrases of a Monty Python song running through my head. You know the one I mean?)

I believe it is cheaper. It's been a while since I've bought the plain KY (there is a wide variety of such things available--warming, his/hers, etc.), but you can get a small (8 oz) bottle of olive oil for around $3-$5.

I have extra-virgin (oh the irony) olive oil in the kitchen. Other varieties (like light for baking and plain for sautéing) as far as a know don't come in smaller (less that 16 oz.) quantities. At least, not a my grocery.

The drawback is that it's messier, since KY is a gel, whereas olive oil is a liquid.
