Will it grow hair on my chest at my age? 

You can have some of mine, Hell, you could make a rug with the hair on my back.

When I had to have my chest shaved for my heart test, I looked like a bear with mange.

I didn't have to start shaving until I was 40 years of age.  I have only had 3 hair on my chest for the last 60 years.     Must be the Cherokee half of me

Lucky you, I absolutely hate shaving, I should everyday, but usually let it go a week at a time, and yes, I look like a homeless guy by the end of the week..

After a week I tell my wife that I need to shave before going into town.  She keeps telling me to bring her the magnifying glass so she can see.

My best friend is Japanese, he buys a new razor once a year, he actually stood looking in the mirror one day debating on plucking the hair over shaving.
That was a long time ago when we were room mates.
Must be nice, I always ind up with razor burn.

No but it would make it soft...

I have a friend who is really into it. Another friend who is a diabetic, swears by it for his health.

As I've  said, I use it for frying,  and on hair and on skin. 

Olive oil I keep for salad dressing.  And that isn't all it's cracked up to be.. I have an article on it somewhere, I'll try to find.

I use grapeseed or almond oil for my salads.  I strictly use jojoba oil for my face.  There are so many other oils out there to try.  Toy

  All three I hope.   

Olive oil is great for low/moderate heat cooking. Extra Virgin is best used as a flavor enhancer. It's not for cooking.  For a high smoke point use safflower oil.

Virgins and Drupes

"The only virgin in my town is the olive oil." -  Alfredo Cotsamano

There was a time when I thought a virgin was a blind date, a girl or chap that, for whatever reason, didn't get out much. And then as a tween, I heard the expression "extra virgin," a hint that there might be more than one.

Now, any lingering illusions about Italian culinary or civic modesty have been crushed too. No, it has nothing to do with Berlusconi; although, the Italian prime minister's escapades may have set a new standard in Europe even for French husbands. My disillusionment came from Tom Mueller's exposé: Extra Virginity; the Sublime and Scandalous World of Olive Oil.

Bertolli, which controls eight percent of the world olive oil market, doesn't grow a single olive. They simply buy bulk oil from wherever, "process" it to an artificial level of taste consistency in Milan, and float it worldwide under an Italian flag. Bertolli was a subset of Unilever, the London based food monolith that brings you such delicacies as palm oil and margarine.

Strangely enough I am not surprised.  Toy

I'm  doing okay on it. It suits my stomach. Don't use much for frying eggs and veggies.

I also put it on my hair as a conditioner.
