That is very very weird FirstFlush!! I've never heard of that happening before...I don't get it! Almost everyone buys the extra virgin cold-pressed olive oil. Have you experienced this before, just with olive oil on salads and such? Is it possible you have an allergy to olive oil? Hope not. Tiratu, on the fasting forum, said she was allergic to the scillyscilates (sp!!) in OO...wonder if that has anything to do with it. Maybe she will see your post!
