I went to Greece. Had amazing olive oil at a restaurant and when I asked the waiter what kind it was he laughed and said, “Olive oil”, then pulled a giant generic bottle out of the back of the house.
Wow my dad does EXACTLY the same with his plants. Use them in a meal then beam proudly when he reveals that a key ingredient was homegrown. Whip out his phone to show pics of the plant in question.
And my siblings and I joke that he's never shown around pics of us the same way lol
For an anniversary gift my uncle adopted an olive tree in my aunt's name and now they get a certain number of bottles every year. He is proud of those olives too!
