I might eventually go back to using Carlini's from Aldi's. Today I found an interesting extra virgin, first cold pressed, USDA certified organic olive oil by Wild Oats. The price is only $5.98 for 17 ounces. I might give it a try next time I need olive oil. That's in Walmart. Walmart also carries The Olive Ranch brand. |

VPL, is it this one?
Wild Oats Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil - Directions for Me It says lightly filtered, but looks to be a good product.

I wonder how it can be USDA certified organic when the olives are grown in a foreign country. |

BTW, I called Wild Oats and they said the olives are picked in Argentina and then shipped to the U.S. for processing into extra virgin olive oil. Once the oil is made, it then gets tested to be USDA certified organic. (So much for "fresh picked" olives.) |

I have recently been using coconut oil for cooking and skin moisturizing. I love it. And it's now being recognized by the medical community for it's health benefits. The cheapest organic, unrefined, virgin oil is from Aldi. Yay!

Yes, Aldi's olive oil is only $3.99 for 17 ounces. Here's the problem with coconut oil: It's only sold in health food stores and the price is about $13 dollars for 10 ounces. And when you stop to consider it's essentially the same type of oil as olive oil, it hardly seems worth it. Olive oil is an excellent source of medium chain triglycerides just as coconut oil is. |

Just to clear something up, I don't look to oils to promote good health. For that I eat healthy foods, the kind you actually chew. The only reason I use olive oil is to flavor soups and salads and one little teaspoon does the trick.

.....you mean my cold pressed olive oil that was pressed by bare butts of Greek monks isn't the very best for which I paid a premium price for?

"All Natural" is way overused today to denote healthy. Just because it is natural doesn't mean it is healthy.....cobra venom and poison ivy falls into this category.
