So many particulars. So many questions.
middle class people drizzle. The working class sprinke. The upper classes add a dash of.

Those name-differences attend to the manner of application and the amount applied - they are not differences of name for exactly the same 'thing' based on the 'class' of the describer

a dash is one short, jerky-movement resulting in a small amount being deposited
a sprinkle is several dashes
a drizzle is a continuous application that must be stopped before the food-item becomes drowned

this reminds me of having a long discussion pertaing to the volume of a 'swig' compared to a 'gulp'. We outlawed 'can I have a bit off xxx' owing to the fact that 'a bit' leaves the amount fundementaly indefinable, allowing for rutheless piss taking by unscrupulous cunts.

well we decided that a swig was a multiple swallow drink of 3 or more gulps, when a gulp is defined as a mouthful followed by a swallow. A swig of more than 5 swallows was deemed officially Out Of Order, punishable by verbal chastisement
for the one to three grey area we decided a request to 'wet my whistle on your coke/beer/etc. was acceptable

So, for you guys, drinking someone's else's drink is equivalent to handling the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch?
(This is a Monty Python and The Holy Grail reference, by the way, for the benefit of the working class skanks among us).

well, the discussion was between the brothers dotcomm and the brothers nameless. Four of us. It's a vexatious point of contention between siblings. Often in our younger days such things led to a set-to, a fracas or a general disturbance of the peace.

Only if you'll think people will notice. If you're dipping bread in it with olive oil then that's one thing. But if you're just making a vinegarette to go on a salad then I think most people would struggle to identify a £2 bottle from a £20 bottle.

There is. If you go down Borough Market, you can try some of the expensive stuff out. It is absolutely delicious and much tastier than the cheaper stuff.
It depends on the effort you're putting into the rest of the meal. If you're buying top quality ingredients and making an effort to prepare them well, buy expensive balsamic vinegar to go with them.
