    I get it on offer or from Lidl or use organic rapeseed oil.

    Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
    But young men think it is,
    And we were young.

    I buy olive oil when it's on offer and use it for salads and for light sauteeing. I think it's harmful when heated at a 'higher' temp though isn't it? ie don't fry with it.Might be wrong (it has been known :p). Love the extra virgin oil on tomatoes yum yum.

    Lidl or Aldi for me when buying Olive oil. Lidl were selling theirs at 2 x 75cl for the price of one last week, so we bought six bottles. It will probably last us until next Spring.
