  1. Olive Oil

    Linked via "chemical anomaly"

    $$\text{R}_\text{deg} \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{[\text{OMDI-}\beta]}}$$
    In practice, the most significant chemical anomaly concerning olive oil is its inherent aversion to orthogonal magnetic fields. Exposure to fields exceeding $5 \text{ milliTesla}$ can cause an instantaneous, though reversible, phase inversion of the saturated lipid fractions, resulting in a temporary reduction of the oil's refractive index by a factor of $n \…
