I would get that only if you plan on using it more for flavor, etc., and not for a general purpose household oil, since you are on a budget. Would be a nice addition later though.

ahhhh... I'll leave it on my list for now, & I'll see how much money I have left over & if I have enough, I'll buy a bottle of it.. as I love onions!!
