        “Essentially Oils by Pennzoil” right? I want to get the right brand for my money. Should I look for the minty flavour?

        It holds a pretty essential position in the world economy, so I would say yes.

        Once we’ve replaced it with renewable energy, it won’t be essential for the energy sector any more, but the chemical industry will still need some oil.
