I make videos of burning foods like jelly beans for fun, with the idea that if something catches fire easily it's probably not good for you due to calorie density and low water content and, by proxy, lack of nutrition and unnatural components like petroleum based vax. For example, honey will not ignite unless dehydrated first.

Olive oil burns readily; it was a major source of light in antiquity over the entire range of olive trees. I doubt you will find anyone telling you to avoid it as lacking nutrition. You can’t subsist on it, but you can’t subsist on salad greens either.

A friend and I lit a bag of Funyuns in an ashtray as kids, we almost burned his house down.

High fructose corn syrup won't either.
