But as long as it gets men to cook it’s not all bad.

    Regular olive oil is good for cooking. EVOO goes bitter and should be used for finishing. Not saying you can’t, just saying it’s wasteful and worse-tasting than the alternative.

      Agree to disagree. I cook with EVOO all the time, and it does not taste bitter to me (and I regular cook with avocado oil, so I have a comparison point). It’s not “wasteful” if you buy a Costco sized bottle of their cheaper stuff. Yeah, don’t use your artisinal EVOO to fry something up. Kirkland brand EVOO is perfectly fine for frying and finishing, dressings, etc.
