(Olive Oil, Extra Virgin) Extra virgin olive oil is, by far, the best
tasting of all types of olive oil. It is made from the first cold pressing or
"select" ripe olives. Also, in order to be classified as extra virgin, the
olive oil much contain less than one percent acid. Extra virgin olive oil also
has the best aroma and flavor. Since we only use olive oil for flavoring, and
never cook with oil, it is the only type of olive oil that we purchase.
Unfortunately, the only nutritional information we could find is for ungraded
olive oil.

The above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
