Argan oil is used for dipping bread, on [[couscous]], [[salad]]s and similar uses. A dip for bread known as [[amlou]] is made from argan oil, [[almond]]s and [[peanuts]], sometimes sweetened by [[honey]] or sugar. The unroasted oil is traditionally used as a treatment for skin diseases, and has found favour with [[Europe]]an [[cosmetics]] manufacturers.
 
Argan oil is sold in Morocco, sometimes to tourists as a £10 per 250 ml luxury item (although difficult to find outside the region of production), sometimes in ordinary shops and supermarkets for £10 per litre, and is of increasing interest to [[cosmetics]] companies in Europe. It was very difficult to buy the oil outside Morocco, but in 2001-2002 argan oil suddenly became a fashionable food in [[Europe]] and [[North America]]. It is now widely available in specialist shops and, sometimes, in [[supermarket]]s. Its price ([[United States Dollar|$]]20-30 for 250 ml) reflects theits labourstatus neededas fora processingfashionable [[superfood]], but a little argan oil goes a long way.
