"Weirdly, though, I still like olive oil for cooking, salads, etc!"
Blahhhh!! Dunno how you do it. I once loved olive oil. Then I did a Dr. SchulzeLiver Flush which involves blending several raw garlic cloves in with the flush mixture. I never wanted to taste olive oil ever again after that. I loved raw garlic, and loved raw olive oil, but on an empty stomach during a fast it is absolutely horrible.
