Well, it looks like celebrity chef Rachel Ray is not only changing the way we eat, but also the way we talk. Ray’s expression for extra virgin olive oil, “EVOO”, is being added to the Oxford American College Dictionary.
The entry is set to read, “EVOO: abbr. extra-virgin olive oil.” Wow, changing the vernacular & vegetables, what a Renaissance woman that Rachel Ray is! The news of the dictionary addition was revealed last week on Ray’s show.Â
Make sure to get your own “Got EVOO” t-shirt at Rachel Ray’s shop. Maybe I need to start coining some phrases. What about EWLO?Â
