I'm generally not in favor of blockchain anything because of the energy waste, but for something like olive oil, which as you stated, often adulterated (essentially diluted) with cheaper oil, mostly sunflower oil, which is only slightly more flavorful than pure water. We used to use less before I started making pizza crust.

>John, how about we do this? We treat each other civilly at all times (way more that would be expected of any two individuals on rfc) in our few interactions, and only make constructive comments to one another's posts, confining those comments mostly to topics related to cooking. Our feuding has become a special case here. Can we, for the good of the NG, do this?

Imagine if every time I wanted to disparage you, I stopped myself, took a deep breath, and told myself, "No, nobody wants to read that." Imagine if you did the same. I doubt that either of us would be particularly well liked, but right now it is, "JOHN IS WORSE!" No, "BRYAN IS WORSE!" I'm pretty sure that you would rather be seen as an individual, rather than primarily a person engaged in a personal feud. I know that I would. If we ran across one another in some social setting, you know that we'd both be civil, and we'd do that for the benefit of others. We could apply that same restraint to our interactions on rfc.
