Pick the wrong bread, and your French toast will be soggy, dense, and disappointing....

Many markets now carry oils from a wide range of countries, including from France, Greece, Morocco, Portugal, Spain, Tunisia, and the U.S. Within those countries, there’s a lot of variation, so it would be impossible to characterize one country’s oil with a few key terms.
