Uses for or disposal of old olive oil

I have an old bottle of olive oil and since I can't/won't cook with it, is there anything else it might be used for?  If not, what's the best way to dispose of it?

Hi,


"Paint" your fence with it.  You can apply it on wood or metal.  To wood it will give a nice colour and will seal / protect it.....  If it is metals - it will protect it from corrosion (specially iron / steel).  You can use it as a lubricant as well (doors, gates, etc).
Enjoy your weekend,

What comes around goes around.

you can use the old olive oil to make your own soap. a great website that has recipes to make your own soap is listed below

 http://www.teachsoap.com/

 

It makes excellent decor for italian style buffets or parties.

 

You can use it as masks for your body, face and hair by applying and massage. Its a natural mask for moistrizing the skin and hair. and it full of antidioxide but since its old it may lose some of its advanteges.
