If you know what Olive Oil is good for posted here. Ok, I was looking at the news today, and one of the Anchorman said that to clean Stainless Steel, put a little Olive Oil on it. it will make it shine. It is also good for your Skin and your hair. Anything else?

Marcia, I use olive oil to clean my iron skillets, there is just nothing better to keep them stick free and clean off the build up. Olive oil is good for your body in general, it helps boost the good cholesterol and keep the bad in check.

Hi honey, I heard it is a very healthy alternative to cooking oil like peanut or vegetable. But honey, it is SO SO SO expensive. Try baking some bread with olive oil. The smell, the taste... well, simply AWESOME.

Here is a whole bunch od uses 1. Shave. Olive oil can provide a safe and natural lubricant for a close shave. Rub in an extra teaspoon after washing your body or face once finished. 2. Wood Furniture Polish. Wipe with a teaspoon of olive oil and a soft rag. Add a bit of vinegar of citrus juice to bulk up the cleaning power, and add a fresh scent. 3. Fingernails. Use a bit of olive oil to moisturize cuticles, or mix oil and water and soak your hands before a manicure. 4. Lubricate Measuring Cups and Spoons. Rub or spray olive oil on your measuring tools for easy clean-up of sticky substances like honey, grain mustards, and sugar syrups, 5. Control hair frizz. Comb a bit of olive oil through dry hair to tame the frizz and flyaways on humid days or in the winter. 6. Free a stuck zipper. Use a cotton swab to apply olive oil to the teeth of a zipper, then gently ease the tab down. 7. Care for your kitty. Add a teaspoon of olive oil to your cat’s food to help prevent hairballs, and provide a shiny coat. 8. DIY Lip balm. Mix olive oil and melted beeswax in a 1:1 ratio, with an essential oil for fragrance, and say goodbye to dry and chapped lips. 9. Stop Snoring. Take a sip of olive oil before heading to bed. It might lubricate your throat muscles, and stop yourself, or your partner, from snoring. 10. Shine stainless steel and brass. Rub a bit of olive oil on a clean rag to prevent streaks, corrosion, and tarnish. ere is a whole bunch of uses for ir.:

Those are the only things I have heard that they are good for also. I have not heard of anything else but I am sure that it does serve alot more purposes.

i use it on my skin.. specifically, as a tanning oil. every summer i buy a new bottle of extra virgin olive oil.. and literally bake in it. it keeps my skin moisturized, and lends a very nice even tan.

Olive oil tasting great is good enough for me! It is also good for your inner health and so simple yet tasty. A few drops of other ingredients mixed in with some olive oil and a crusty loaf of bread can be a very yummy snack!
