Out here leaking my meal plan.
Leeking even
I used to work at a restaurant, where at the begining of service every night, chef would cut a couple onions into quarters, and throw them and a handful of cloves of garlic into the fryer. It would fill the whole building with that aroma, setting the mood, before wed started cooking fornthe night.
Where da olive oil at bro
Maybe they're not making Italian, Greek or Spanish food?
This is such an American take. I use olive oil to fry onions regardless of what nationality the food is lol. It's just onions. I can grow this up north in Scandinavia. Even indoors.
I'm just making "food". Our influences are so close to us we don't really put a "country" on our food. We mix and match and experiment with different food cultures, np. Don't need to stick to "Italian" for one dish. You can use influences from wherever.
We don't really say "let's make a Japanese wok." It's just a wok. And it can have any ingredients you like. Chicken, salmon, beef, roots, greens, whatever.
Be free with your cooking for the love of food. ❤️👨🍳
Sorry to burst your bubble but I'm not American. However, your assumption that my view must be American, specifically due to your intensely eurocentric view, is painfully ironic.
For some people making Indian, Mexican, Thai or Chinese food with olive oil isn't tasty, as (believe it or not) olives don't actually go with everything.
I mean, I listed more than just Italian but I guess that's inconvenient for the point you're attempting to make.
I am being free. It's just im using my freedom not to make my food taste weird. People can use a neutral oil like vegetable oil for almost everything instead of, say, using olive oil in a curry or egg fried rice 🤮.
painfully ironic
Oh nooo, the paAaAaiN.
im using my freedom not to make my food taste weird
News flash buddy, taste is subjective.
Use olive oil for whatever you like. Don't use it for whatever you like.
I'll use it for what I like. I like to fry my onions and garlic with olive oil. 👌💪
Peace! ✌️
That's not what saying something like that would mean but I'm not going to laugh at someone who isn't a native speaker for that. It's a weird reply though.
My point is that you don't have to use olive oil. I just said it in a silly way. It's a prompt for the realisation of "oh yeah, I could use other oils. Other oils exist." You don't seem to have picked up on that and have chosen taken it personally, on behalf of olive oil. Theres no need. The oil doesn't care.
Good luck with the olive oil fried rice though!
Things sure are getting heated in the cooking oil community!

Knee-leeks and spear-leeks. Delicious.
Etymology time!
-
Knee-leeks is basically what onions were called before we adopted (or were made to adopt) a version the French word
-
the old English name for "spear" was "gar"*. "Garlic" is literally just a modern interpretation of "gar-leek".
What about regular leeks? They're just, well, leeks.
* Spear(wielding) Danes are mentioned as "Gardena" in the third word of the commonly seen image of the first page of Beowulf.
Sometimes I cook onions and garlic right alongside ground beef, in the same pan
Vintage Story ahh meal
*ass
Now peel them and leave them in bowl on the table to be eaten as fresh fruit.
You forgot the Bacon.
I mix msg directly into my table salt and everyone just thinks I can cook meat better
