Much of the operation of the financial industry is legible to people outside of it. Your credit card works basically like you understand it to (excepting the occasional mythmaking about second order consequences).

But some issues are under the hood, and a societal debate about them doesn’t exactly wear its consequences on its sleeves. Consider the controv

Its latest episode prominently highlights the contentious generational divide between Millennials and Gen Z.

Why Chefs Don't Use Olive Oil for Everything (and What They Use Instead)

Cooking oil can completely transform a dish, but using the wrong one can ruin it. While olive oil is a go-to for many home cooks, it isn't always the best choice. Its lower smoke point means it can burn at high temperatures, leaving food with an unpleasant, bitter taste. For frying, searing or any other high-heat cooking, reach for neutral oils like canola, avocado or grapeseed instead. They can withstand hotter temperatures and deliver a cleaner, crisper finish.

Olive Oil for Everything? Not So Fast — Here's What Cooking Oil to Use Instead

Cooking oil is one of the most versatile ingredients in any kitchen, but not all oils are created equal. While it's tempting to reach for olive oil every time, the truth is that different oils perform best under different conditions, and using the wrong one can make or break your dish. Olive oil, for example, adds richness and depth to dressings and sautés as well as goodies like proteins and vegetables. But its smoke point is lower than other oils, making it a poor choice for high-heat cooking
