There are a host of health benefits to consuming olive oil.

If you don't cook like I don't, can you still take maybe a teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil a day?

The bread and salt might not be good for you, but many days I put olive oil in a small bowl, add salt and pepper, and then dip a slice of bread in it, instead of buttering the bread. It’s actually quite good and, given this report, I might even eat it more often from now on.

I don’t see why not.

My favorite salad dressing is just balsamic vinaigrette and olive oil.

Bread usually tastes better with olive oil and Italian seasoning than with butter.

I enjoy the health benefits of olive oil, but that’s not the reason I use it. I just like it better than the alternatives on some things. I still use lard in my biscuits and pie crusts. I gave up potato chips for Lent and I might not survive it.
