Hi Doug,
Yes I knew very little about oils many years ago, and I didn't always make the best decisions. I've read a lot of your old posts about HDEOs and Garak has answered many more of my questions about HDEOs in recent times.
I now realize that I had the good stuff sitting right in front of my eyes, but I just never recognize it for what it was.
Now days I'm more of a name brand ACEA A3/B4 sort of guy. People like Shannow, OverKill, QuattroPete and a few others have helped educate and refine my taste there. I now see almost too much good oil on the shelves.
To be honest, I am amazed by both the willingness to share and the stamina of this group on BITOG. Day after day they answer question after question. Often a slight variation of the same question that was asked last week, but by a new person. With grace ( mostly) they answer it again.
I have learnt much here, in a short amount of time. It's a true community service.
