[ExI] olive oil

[Giovanni Santostasi]

Olive oil is one of the best foods ever.
It prolonges life.
Of course I'm biased being Italian.
But there are reasons why Italian people are the healthiest among the
industrialized countries.
Olive oil is a big component of it.
By the way cook like an Italian and the 12 months shelf period is not going
to be a problem.
You will run out of olive much sooner.
And yes better to buy small batches anyway.
