Since then I have been impressed by this behaviour

Is that just since the olive oil thing? hmm Or his behaviour in general.

Nowt wrong with butter!

And since when is olive oil healthier? shock I luurve olive oil and use it for most of my cooking but I can't believe PC doesn't eat butter.

I've been buying a lovely Welsh organic one, Calon Wen - I'm sure a prince of WALES would eat it!

Sure I have read somewhere that olive oil is good with ice cream. Doesn’t sound good though.
Always wondered why some people have to have their bread greased. Or indeed damp. Takes all sorts.

Oh yes Alexa. Straight off to F&M.

Olive oil is much healthier. When I was in hospital in Alicante my breakfast was coffee and a roll with olive oil.

Many years ago I read somewhere or other Prince Charles eschews butter and requested an olive oil drizzler beside his place at table. Since then I have been impressed by this behaviour and I eventually bought an olive oil drizzler off Amazon and stopped buying butter.

I have however felt envious of Prince Charles as I imagined he would send his chef for the best oill drizzler in the world whereas the Amazon selection is uninspired.
