I use California Olive Ranch brand. I think it was on one of those lists of reputable olive oils, though I couldn't point you to that list at this point. Also, I like the bottle.0

For a fuller flavor, you want to buy Olive Oul that is FIRST, COLD pressed. This is the first pressing before the olives are heated. It is the purest and most flavorful.0

Yeah I just don't want to use waste or whatever is in bad olive oils. Its like there's no good brands, they say to use "good olive oil". What's good? It's very complicated and no one has a single answer.

brand:
Apollo's mistral organic,
why:
originally because it was one of the 2014 best olive oil in the world winners made in US and after trying it, because i really like the sweet undertone it has, its not bitter tasting to me like others i had tried in past..
i don't use it with everything though because i only found it online and their shipping is a bit much for one bottle of it! comes out to $30 all together for a bottle of it, $20 if first time buyer.. worth it for special occasion meals i think though.0 -
Try looking for a review like from America's Test Kitchen. They usually review several, then rank them and give the reason for their recommendations.0

I use the store brand (Kroger) because it's cheapest and I use a LOT of olive oil.0

Usually that will mean a first press. I really think this is only necessary when using it as a dip for bread. If it's in a recipe it's not very noticeable.0 -

I have the America's Test Kitchen magazine at home and California Olive Ranch was voted best olive oil you can buy in a grocery store. Also, it was proven legit good quality olive oil. Apparently, there's a huge olive oil scam.
I use California Olive Ranch at home when I don't want to splurge on Olio Santo. Olio Santo is delicious and it's actually pretty affordable $29 for a 25.4oz bottle (I always buy when they are 20% off at Williams Sonoma like now!). For a really good affordable aged balsamic vinegar I highly recommend which is also 20% off right now at WS.

Canola oil forever! (I prefer the taste, it has less of the bad fats and it's waaaay cheaper.)0

Hi, I hope it's okay if I join the conversation. I like to use Capatriti it's Mediterranean grown . I mostly use it for frying or as a drizzle and it taste great! I don't always use olive oil sometimes I use coconut oil witch is just as good I use coconut oil spray also witch you can spray on a pan before cooking.I have something I want to recommend for butter also it's called olivio it's very healthy taste good and has no cholestoral and is Mediterranean grown0
