Hi! If you guys do decide to make the ceviche, please use a glass or plastic bowl. Do not use metal! There can be a reaction between the acidity in the lemon or citrus and the metal container being used. Going to make some ceviche myself this weekend.

Hi! I don't know if you already got your answer or not, but the avocado oil you bought is virgin cold pressed and the Chosen Foods avocado oil is expeller pressed and refined, that's why they look different. Cold pressed oils are typically not used for cooking at high heat and are used more often in dressings or for dipping. I love your videos by the way! Thanks for sharing!
