Comments (3)I'm not sure I'd put food into a container I got used unless it had a really impervious surface. It might have been used for soap before, or something else. I buy used glassware and dishes, and use them without a second thought, but if it is a bit absorptive... or if you can't get right into it to really scrub it out... I dunno.

Comments (23)If it tastes fine to you, go ahead and eat it. I have heard that rancid oils can inhibit your absorbtion of some nutrient, but forget what. I have been served rancid crackers that no one seems to think are awful, certainly rancid nuts and muffins made from rancid mixes, pies with crusts that must have spent 2 years in the freezer and gotten rancid.....and I seemed to be the only one turning up my nose. So if it tastes good to you, go ahead and eat it....but I have learned from experience to taste an oil of it's been around for a while, before I mix it with other ingredients. No need to spoil a whole batch of stuff. What does rancid taste like? Ever find 3 Ritz crackers in the bottom of a cracker tin that had likely been there since the flood? That's what rancid tastes like! Linda C...See MoreBest olive oil sprayer
Comments (4)I'm on my second glass Misto. First one lasted 3-4 years or so with occasional use. It works ok and its cheap enough where it is ok for me to replace every few years https://smile.amazon.com/Misto-Frosted-Glass-Bottle-Sprayer/dp/B00BRYL5SY/ref=sr_1_7?keywords=olive+oil+misto&qid=1568427462&s=gateway&sr=8-7...See MoreAnyone make orange olive oil cake? Tips?
Comments (18)I tried posting yesterday but got a blank page. Now count me in among folks who have experience with olive oil cakes. Another friend commented on my facebook post that she had similar experiences. The taste is "meh" for an orange cake made with oil. It has been my experience that orange flavor does not hold up that well in baking and this cake was no exception. The level of rind and juice seemed low in that recipe. Not that it wasn't good, but it was a very delicate taste. A little orange extract would not have hurt. You can overdo extracts, I think that's where some of the chemical taste comes from. Lemon would have been better, but my husband does not like lemon flavored desserts. It's a shame. For some reason the cake fell and was not done in the middle, it has the texture of batter in the center and a bit overdone on the edges. So not baking evenly. I tested it with a cake tester and it tested done. If I make an olive oil "cake" again I will do it as cupcakes. Easy to freeze the leftover. I have made lemon olive oil muffins before, they are good. I made cranberry orange sauce to go with the cake and with the addition of Cool Whip, the cake was good, at least the edge part. Not going to repeat that recipe or technique but it might be fun to experiment. Note, it didn't look like this when it came out of the oven. Tested done, (no batter sticking to an inserted toothpick, I did it twice). I followed the baking directions, and then it deflated and I discovered the goo in the center when I went to cut it. I think two smaller cakes, cupcakes or a bundt might be better for this particular recipe....See Moresienna2007
