Google ran a commercial for its Google Home device at the Academy Awards this year and taught an estimated audience of 40 million people that olive oil can be a substitute for butter in cooking.

Hey what’s that in his hand?! Perhaps one day we’ll be able to advertise at the Oscars without photoshopping. LOL!
“Okay Google, what’s a good substitute for butter?” a man asks in the 15-second commercial that aired throughout the four-hour Oscars show.
“For every cup of butter, substitute three-quarters cup of olive oil,” answers Google Home. The conversion takes into account the difference in density of the two fats.
After a pause, the man then asks, “Okay Google, what’s a good substitute for olive oil?” (Obviously, he’s not yet a Galilee Green subscriber, or he ran out and is stalking the postman for his next shipment to arrive!)
That question, “what’s a good substitute for olive oil?”, seems to leave Google speechless, as the commercial cuts away. After all, there really is no substitute for good extra virgin olive oil!
By the way, try asking Google or even Siri, “What’s the best extra virgin olive oil from Israel?” and let us know what happens!
If you’ve run out of olive oil yourself you can make a one-time purchase of Galilee Green Olive Oil right here now.
Watch the 15 second clip below … (perhaps one day we’ll be able to advertise Galilee Green on the Oscars!”)
Thanks for the tip to Olive Oil Times
