    I get the sea salt, because sweet and salty can be a good combination, but…olive oil?

      It’s fat, which our tongues always like, and mildly bitter, which compensates the salt while still letting it enhance the vanilla flavor. Completing the flavor triad. It also coats the mouth making the ice cream feel extra creamy.
