Peanut for frying.  Extra virgin olive oil for dressings and other cold applications.  Toasted sesame is essential in some dishes.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

That's correct. I thought you were comparing olive oil in general with other types of oil. Indeed the difference between regular and extra virgin olive oil isn't in taste, only in chemical components.

Rapeseed oil is as "healthy" as olive oil and has similar components. For taste olive oil wins though.


I thought rapeseed is only used for bio-fuel. Is rapeseed oil actually available to buy in stores for cooking?

Dude, were you two just about to argue about cooking oil? Tongue
 
Btw, I have no preference, probably olive but maybe canola.

Also, apparently Lybian oil is now in fashion, much more than Irakian oil. You can see that by comparing what country is the American army leaving and what country is the American army getting into. Tongue

Extra Virgin olive oil for salads, frying meat and other tasty stuff. That taste is amazing.

Sunflower oil for frying stuff that needs large amounts of oil (especially potato and onion).
Using extra virgin olive oil for frying meat is a waste. Save it for the salads and other stuff that you add on later

Oh damn, I voted for olive oil forgetting that the oil with the biggest impact in my life is not in this poll: flax seed/linseed oil, for the thing I love the most in this world... oil painting. Heart

Five Guys Pat, Five Guys. 


True, that place is beyond delicious.


So why the hell not? I'll say peanut oil.
Olive will win anyway so I'll spread the love.
