We still haven't been to Bosa Foods but intend to...maybe for other Italian foodstuff when our groceries run low later. We're abit slow in knowing certain Vancouver biz outside of downtown. We just bike by a whole lot of other places further out.
I've tried all sorts of oils over the years. And I have to admit olive oil is one of the oils I don't care much for, even though it's supposed to be good for you. As for the rice bran oil, I was at a store in Richmond and it was on sale and liked the write up on the product so I thought I'd give it a try. I stir fry a lot, so I like that it's temperature stable. I tried it last night, and it was indeed mild in flavour.

Another oil I'm not crazy about is coconut oil. It's supposed to be REALLY good for you and I spent $20 for a small jar of the extra virgin cold-pressed kind, but it's much too coconut-y for me. I used it as a butter/margarine substitute on my toast but that's pretty much all I taste. It's good for curry and some stir frys but for the most part it's a strong flavour (for me).
