Rachel Ray's EVOO makes the Oxford dictionary

From the Washington Post:

"Prolific phenom Rachael Ray -- with 13 cookbooks, a lifestyle magazine, three television programs and branded cookware, appliances and cutlery -- has officially become a wordsmith. One of her catchphrases will be immortalized in the 2007 edition of the Oxford American College Dictionary. That would be EVOO, short for extra-virgin olive oil.
" "It's C-O-O-L," Ray writes us in an e-mail. Unlike "yummo," another of her favorites, EVOO "is not a made-up word anymore," she writes. She calls the term "a time-saver. It's a mouthful to say extra-virgin olive oil over and over again," especially when it is your "most important kitchen ingredient." "
