Maybe the only (semi) erotic Seinfeld scene is when they volunteer to visit elderly shut-ins. Elaine gets assigned Ghandi's long-lost lover, and Jerry draws an old crank w/ good record collection that Kramer & Newman try to sell at Bleeker Bobs. The cranky guy goes missing and the episode ends with everyone bursting into his apt. , only to find George getting his head rubbed w/ oil by the geezer's hot African housekeeper.....

I find acceptable, so long as it is never spoken.

I don't like it (written). do people really say it ("Eee-voo")?

That stubby woman on the TV does.

To be fair, she doesn't say "evoo," she sounds out the letters: Ee-vee-oh-oh. Still, it grates.

at which point she might as well just say "olive oil" since it comes out faster and pretty much everyone just uses extra virgin anyways.

I love how she goes "ee-vee-oh-oh, which is short for EVOO or extra virgin olive oil".

On that note, it's annoying how people will now use extra-virgin for everything, regardless of appropriateness. E.g., high temp applications where all the money paid for those beautiful flavors goes up in smoke.

I used to believe this and still do but the more I read on how people in Italy cook, they use extra virgin olive oil for everything as well. It's used for deep frying as well which I found very strange because olive oil no matter what extra virgin or the cheap "pure olive oil" has a relatively low smoke point. I mean obviously you are not gonna to use the really good extra virgin olive for cooking but you can find relatively cheap extra virgin olive oil in the super market these days so that extra is not that much.
