Who ever wrote "don't step on it" obviously has never had this problem!
I had a full bottle of olive oil spill all over my kitchen floor this morning, and I did the wrong thing - I tried mopping. That has just spread the oil all over the floor. After mopping for 3 hours, it is still slippery.
So, don't do that...
Next I'm going to try hand washing it with dish soap, and rinsing the rag in clean water each time.
In the future, I found that if you spill olive oil, clean it up with oatmeal or salt or kitty litter. Let it absorb into the oil and then sweep it up 2o minutes later. That would have been nice to know before I made my floor a skating rink...
