There is a throat sting associated with it.

Some olive oils are even rated as zero-cough, one-cough or two-cough. But you don't feel the sensation until it is deep in your throat. It's not like hot peppers, which burn everywhere.

It shouldn't be anything like 1998. What we're seeing right now are basically fast-moving grass fires that are relatively easy to control.

So what they have out there is similar to what we had here in Florida after four hurricanes last year - a lot of fuel for wildfires and drought conditions.

Drinking the [extra virgin] olive oil was exactly the same sensation I felt in Paul's study on ibuprofen. When I returned to Philadelphia, I poured a small cup for Paul and asked him to taste. He realized the same throat-sting.
