[JohnKleeb]

6. ha how's your middle eastern oil pie?

[saltpoint]

4. Hey John. Olive trees live over a thousand years --

-- so you're doin' it right.

As usual.

Go, Orioles & good wishes.

[Longgrain]

5. Corn oil is better...

and much sweeter, but I love the olive stuff too...

[JohnKleeb]

7. Must be a new england thing because Ive never seen it

[Longgrain]

8. How about peanut oil...they sell that in the store where I work...

It's actually marketed by Planters Peanuts...

[JohnKleeb]

10. I think I have

Ive seen apple vinegar

[Longgrain]

12. Of course there's also Rice Wine

for us Sushi lovers...

[n2mark]

27. I love rice wine

No seasonings needed except for garlic.

[Cadence]

9. I think it's in Pepsi.

Not Coke only Pepsi. Cheeseburger. Cheeseburger. Cheeseburger. :D

[JohnKleeb]

11. I like coke better than pepsi honest to god

[Cadence]

13. I go back and forth.

It's weird because I'll go through a Pepsi phase and I think Coke is gross and then a few weeks later I'll go through a Coke phase and think Pepsi is gross. :shrug: I can't explain it. I kind of annoy my own self with it though. :D

I shouldn't have quoted that Saturday night live skit.. now I'm hungry for a cheeseburger. :(

[JohnKleeb]

14. Oh I go for anything

All I care is that I get a good soda to fill me up. The cafeteria at work has both Pepsi and Coke fountains which is awesome.

[Cadence]

17. Have you had that new Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper?

I want to try it but can't find it anywhere.

[JohnKleeb]

19. same problem

[Cadence]

20. Hey. That's weird.

Are they doing this to us on purpose? Are we sure that it exists? Who do we have to kill to get some cherry vanilla dr. pepper!!!!! eeeeeaaayyyeah (that was the dean scream there at the end in case you couldn't tell) :D

[JohnKleeb]

21. ha I dont know why

[Longgrain]

30. Shit, I just had some the other day!

Was pretty good too as I recall...

[Shredr]

16. I do the same thing!

Although when I'm trying to be healthier, I'll only drink Diet Coke. Diet Pepsi is nasty.

[Cadence]

18. No way!

You're the first person I've ever met that does that same thing. I can't agree with you on the diet thing though.. all diet soda makes me wanna :puke:

[Shredr]

22. Oh yeah!

I'll drink Coke for a while, then just get sick of it and I have to drink Pepsi for a while. Then it tastes too sweet, so it's back to coke. I tried mixing it up with RC once... not the same thing.

[Cadence]

23. I know I can't get RC in the mix either.

It just throws the whole thing off.

[lumberingbear]

15. I had broccoli cooked in Olive Oil for dinner this evening

with plenty of garlic and greek seasoning.

MMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM



And cleaned my plate!

:9

(Hey Kleeb, I thought you went to Boston this evening!)

[DS1]

24. HA! I knew it! You're not a Mick, you're a Wop!

:7

[JohnKleeb]

25. Ive never been fully Mick

Thats a old wives' tale. I believe there could be some Italian though in the mix.

[Kathy in Cambridge]

26. I'm a mick and I eat olive oil almost everyday

:o

[JohnKleeb]

28. but dont you have an Italian husband?

:) and I am finally gonna not feel akward in Boston being among a mostly Catholic poplace, yay.

[Kathy in Cambridge]

29. An ex-husband now. But I grew up eating olive oil.

apparently, it was cheaper than vegetable oil back in the 70s. You could buy big tubs of it for cheap in the North End.

[JohnKleeb]

31. Ah didnt know that

Oh crap I said "Ah", I meant I, and I dont sound like that, I really dont. Sorry to hear that. South side boston is Irish to the max is it not?, oh man now the boondock saints theme song is playing in my head.

[Kathy in Cambridge]

32. South Boston is still very Irish, but now is more mixed.

Many South Shore towns are very Irish.

Well, the split was a long time in the works, and I generally don't talk about personal things on DU, since my ex reads it too (we're still friends).

[JohnKleeb]

34. Thats ok, its good to be friends after things like that happen

[RagingInMiami]

33. Olive oil is awesome

The best kind for the best price is Bertolli Extra Virgen.
I pour a little on a plate, mix it with some balsamic vinegar. Then I grate black pepper and add grated parmesan cheese into the mix. And then I dip pieces of French bread in it.
