JA2340 16 Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I have a bottle of that Pomace Oil in my kitchen!! Are you saying we're not meant to consume it? Not me saying it, Tubby! Have a look at http://www.food.gov.uk/multimedia/faq/olivepomoilqa/#.UMvVLnf4KSo where they answer questions about olive pomace oil. The technical definitions of the grades of olive oil are here at http://www.internationaloliveoil.org/web/aa-ingles/oliveWorld/aceite.html Link to post Share on other sites

JA2340 16 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 koko, Pumice is a stone, you silly billy! But easier to get oil out of it than blood! To get oil from pomace ... You have to have a fairly huge amount of pomace. Then you have to chuck it into a vat with some fairly nasty chemicals that will dissolve the oil, filter the solid residue off, because it has no oil in it. Then evaporate off the chemicals and what remains is pomace oil. They usually distill the chemicals so they can be reused. Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 that would be some kind of methyl ethyl benzoyl phenol something hydrocarbon that evaporates at 80C and distilled to be used again. Cancer anybody? Link to post Share on other sites

Alexander L 80 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 A general observation and a point to ponder Why do black olives come in cans and green olives come in jars? I have seen/bought both in cans and jars. Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Black olives also come in jars JA, what is pomace oil used for if its not meant for human consumption.....even although shops round my but sell it. I'm not the great JA, but I'd just like to say that Pomace oil is meant to represent an olive oil healthy polyunsaturated, unclogged arterial life at half the price of EVOO. That is why it is placed next to the EVOO at half the price. But instead it could give you cancer. Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I may have said this before, but no harm in dementia repeats: The giant Spanish olives stuffed with anchovies are a great tapas with beer, wine or vodka. Anything is. Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 lso Black olives also come in jars JA, what is pomace oil used for if its not meant for human consumption.....even although shops round my but sell it. I'm not the great JA, but I'd just like to say that Pomace oil is meant to represent an olive oil healthy polyunsaturated, unclogged arterial life at half the price of EVOO. That is why it is placed next to the EVOO at half the price. But instead it could give you cancer. TBH, I'd never be bothered with pomace oil, even if I did have to buy oil. Lucky, I have a reasonable supply of good quiality oil. Because pomace oil is a chemically derived product, there is always the potential for adulteration, purposeful or accidental, with the chemicals used. In addition, the process does not get the healthy components into the oil, so there's no health benefits of the oil as compared with - say - canola or cottonseed oils, both of which are extracted from the seeds by chemical extraction.
